UDWiki:Administration/Undeletions
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. Note: Images cannot be restored, they are permanently gone when deleted.
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.

The vote was on a page that ought to have been immediately deleted as a deletion workaround, and the poster slapped with a vandal warning. So that "vote" doesn't matter a whit. In any event, the vote was not over and thus there was no final decision made, either way.
Bottom line is that the page in question is libellous, violates privacy and is in all regards wholly inappropriate content for this wiki. That's why it was deleted in the first place. --WanYao 15:47, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

- And your point is what, exactly? That vandalism case has no bearing on the Undeletion requestr. In any event, only one sysop has ruled on said case... it ain't over yet. But no matter what the sysops decide on the vandalism case -- and I will respect that decision -- my argument against undeletion is crystal clear. Now, grow up already. --WanYao 18:04, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

The End
Can I get the group The End taken off the defunct groups list and put back on the human/pk list. We were inactive for a while but enough of us want to start the group up again. thanks,--Phish Dude 05:31, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
- Done, although this shouldn't have been an undeletion request (you only had to replace [[Category:Defunct Groups]] with [[Category:Groups]] Linkthewindow Talk 05:38, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
