This page is for the request of page undeletions within the Urban Dead wiki. Due to concerns about loss of data, the ability to undelete pages is restricted to system operators. As such, regular users will need to request an undeletion from a system operator. For consistency and accountability, system operators also adhere to the guidelines listed here.

~~Please note that Images cannot be restored, they are permanently gone when deleted. If you wish to prevent any currently unused images from being deleted you may wish to Image Ark them.~~

Due to the new software update, images deleted from the wiki after 21st April 2011 can be undeleted. Images deleted prior to this date unfortunately cannot be restored.

Guidelines for Undeletion Requests

All Undeletion Requests must contain the following information in order to be considered:

A link to the deletion request in question. Preferably bolded for visibility.
A reason for undeletion. This should be short and to the point.
A signed datestamp. This can be easily done by adding ~~~~ to the end of your request.

Any undeletion request that does not contain these three pieces of information will not be considered, and will be removed by a system operator.

Undeletions may only be granted if the user provides a convincing reason as to why the page should be resurrected, or if the page was deleted as a result of a system operators abuse.

Once the undeletion request has been entered, the request shall remain on this page, where it will be reviewed by a member of the Sysop team, and action taken accordingly. Once action has been taken, the request will be moved into Recent Actions, along with a comment from the system operator who determined the action take. After a week has passed with the target page in Recent Actions, it can be moved to the Archive.

I’d do it myself but, y’know….

User would like her user page restored.

The deletion was valid, as I believe can be confirmed by Spiderzed ▋ in addition to —Aich on— and myself if necessary, but was ineffective at the time and is in any case no longer required.

I have the user’s explicit authorisation to post this request.

Best,

For sure? Do they want the page restored minus the personal info? -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 22:14, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

It’s fine. The page was archived off-site anyway, and IIRC doesn’t contain any specific personal info, so should be fine to restore as-is. Thanks! ♥ ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ

Are you the owner of the original account? DANCEDANCEREVO LUTION 21:34, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

Yes. Im sure you can verify that yourself as well with the CheckIP thing Kim Jung Undead (talk) 13:17, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

Sifting through Jack's mess of an IP history, my favourite thing to do. Sadly, I couldn't find any IPs linking the two of you, however I did find you linked to other alts including a permabanned vandal alt that impersonated another user. So I'm disinclined to let an account with a history of impersonating take ownership of JISOR without proof. DANCEDANCEREVO LUTION 01:53, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

Don't worry. I have a couple accounts you can check.. DDR-Back-That-Time-He-Was-A-Vandal (talk) 09:48, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

Same issue. All currently lead to each other, none to JISOR. DANCEDANCEREVO LUTION 12:14, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

So many issues. I blame my ISP.. - (talk) 13:01, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

Your ISP made 30 accounts over 5 years and then forgot the password to the only one you actually want to access? DANCEDANCEREVO LUTION 22:31, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

Hey KJU, one last idea. Do you still have access to your Discord account? You messaged me a couple of years ago. If you can get that account and DM me again confirming you're JISOR, that would be enough. DANCEDANCEREVO LUTION 04:36, 12 November 2021 (UTC)

I feel like the rules have made it possible to rig the system and it made the need for the accounts back obsolete. I could find the edits I wanted via waybackmachine :) -- SomethingSomething.gif (talk) 19:47, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

-Today, Nubis deleted a lot of older NT scan .pngs because they do not currently link to anything. That's because many of the scan .png files were replaced on their NT pages with an animated "static" .gif image to illustrate that they need a new scan. However, the older images were not truly orphans. If someone were to want to update the NTs now, it would be more convenient to retain those old pictures so that a) there is no confusion about what filename and type the updated image should use, b) there is the convenience of the "upload a new version of this image," rather than leave someone confused as to why no image exists currently, and c) the original images have a record of the previous revisions, which is useful information.{{User:Extropymine/sig}} 01:01, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

-:Images cannot be undeleted. If the images were in use (read, placed on a page) then this is a case for misconduct. If they were not in use then they qualify for a scheduled deletion as they were classed as dead images, image ark anything yoiu might need in future. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 01:07, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

-:::Yeah, what Iscariot said. Make a page like [[NecroWatch/scans]], and link to all of them. Then they won't qualify for the scheduled deletion. By the way, the ability to undelete images can be enabled (or so I've read,) on this version, but it comes default in this newest one... although it needs to be upgraded. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 05:56, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

-:Here's the thing. It was Crit 7 but, there are two things. Cyberbob can come by and be willing to wave that by saying he's for the undeletion, if he in-fact is. Or, we can continue the discussion from IRC and decide if we want to treat Template pages as public and beyond author ownership once in use. The issue is mostly that how far would that go and would that apply to this template as much as it does to a utilitarian one like {{c|Strike}}. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small> 04:22, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
-:Further discussion has been had at least a bit, I'm gonna treat this as an un-owned page and undelete for now. It might be deleted in the future but since the issue is more if there is ownership of templates and if so where does it end the undeletion request certainly is valid due to the usage thing. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small> 04:34, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

-First, learn to format, please. Second, request denied. Ignoring all of the deletion vote drama the page is mostly a chat log. You can not expand upon chat logs. This isn't your livejournal where people want to read your chat logs. Why in the hell would you post a chat log?  Not to mention, maybe if a few of these hate pages were nipped in the bud it could cool down the flame war between you two (not you, Wan - the Umbrellas).
