UDWiki:Administration/Undeletions

Shortcut:
A/U

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.

Mall Alt logo images

Image:Marven-mall-logo-alt.png, Image:Giddings-mall-logo-alt.png

there may be more that have been deleted, if someone wouldn't mind checking through for all the Mallname-mall-log.png and Mallname-mall-logo-alt.png images and restoring them that would be dandy. I'm gonna make a page Mall Images that keeps a copy of all of these coz i'm sick of this happening.--xoxo 03:38, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, can't undelete images. You'll need to bug the person who uploaded those in the first place.--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 03:40, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Eastwick Drive

Eastwick Drive is a locations page that was wiped by a n00b and should never have been speedied -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 22:50 7 November 2008 (BST)

Oh, and it's talk page too, please -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 22:51 7 November 2008 (BST)

Done.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 15:03, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

DDR

This page was deleted by Karek without following the correct procedure. It was under vote at A/D as it had received a keep vote on A/SD. This is a breech in policy and the page should be restored immediately to allow the correct procedures for deletion to be followed, thanks.--xoxo 13:23, 25 October 2008 (BST)

Denied.--– Nubis ^NWO 13:55, 25 October 2008 (BST)

Why? What basis did you make the decision on?--CyberRead240 14:05, 25 October 2008 (BST)

The Deadites

It's got a few incoming links, and was crit 12ed. If the page had a decent amount of content, I'd like to see it restored. If there's not much on the page, then don't bother. --Pdeq^Talk* 19:48, 26 July 2008 (BST)

Done.--Karek^maps?! 20:42, 26 July 2008 (BST)

Malton Inhumane Society

According to wanted pages there are 253 links to this page. I know it was Crit 7'ed back in March but that is a hell of a lot of red links. Could we restore just the final edit to sort the links? -- Cheese 21:34, 6 July 2008 (BST)

All the links seem to be just from User:Airborne88's sig. --Pdeq^Talk* 21:53, 6 July 2008 (BST)

It was a link he was spamming on user pages, and deleted less than a week after he had started doing it, which was right around when he first joined the wiki.--Karek^maps?! 14:24, 8 July 2008 (BST)

Ah. That would explain why they're still there even though his template sig is different now. He must have had it on his preferences sig before he templated it. -- Cheese 00:47, 11 July 2008 (BST)

Template:ELT-map

Template:ELT-map (Logs)

I can't seem to find out what criteria 10 is or was. I've been wanting to restore Light Map of Dulston. Dr Cory Bjornson 00:04, 5 July 2008 (BST)

here is the request, crit 10 is unused templates. If you don't use it, it will be deleted again -- boxy ^{talk • i} 14:43 8 July 2008 (BST)

Gangsta Business

An old crit 12 group, useful content linked to from the Eastonwood page. I wouldn't include the last two edits in the undelete though -- boxy ^{talk • i} 07:27 15 June 2008 (BST)

Undeleted only the very last valid revision for the page. Since all the edits were back in 2006 i dont see the need for all 190 or so revisions to be presented. --The Grimch ^{U! E! WAT!} 07:54, 15 June 2008 (BST)

Peppardville Defense Force

A lot of pages link there. If the page had a reasonable amount of content, it'd be nice to see it restored. --Pdeq^Talk* 23:51, 11 May 2008 (BST)

Restored -- boxy ^{talk • i} 02:52 12 May 2008 (BST)

Animal Liberation Front

disbanded gorup, must be undeleted as we don't have crit 12 for a reason. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[cloned] [mod]} 20:16, 15 April 2008 (BST)

It was done through deletions rather than Speedy so Crit 12 wasn't used. :/ Dunno about this one. -- Cheese 20:17, 15 April 2008 (BST)

Was voted to be deleted on A/D. Dis umpossible?--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 20:17, 15 April 2008 (BST)

I disagree. The page received a fair vote and the community decided to delete it. But if the group has reactivated, then it should be undeleted. --ZsL 21:25, 15 April 2008 (BST)

Why them, Hagnat? They don't link from anywhere (except deletions/undeletions) and the page is a bit of a stub really -- boxy ^{talk • i} 10:16 16 April 2008 (BST)

Not restored. --ZsL 18:03, 21 April 2008 (BST)

Wiki Monitors

Short lived wiki group in the early '07. Still have some references on the wiki, specially it's following group. Talk page and templates inclded on the undeletion request. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[cloned] [mod]} 17:21, 20 April 2008 (BST)

Restored, I have no clue why it was deleted in the first place but it was relevant and is a portion of the wiki's history.--Karek^maps?! 19:39, 20 April 2008 (BST)

It was requested for deletion by it's author because it was causing too much drama -- boxy ^{talk • i} 12:00 25 April 2008 (BST)

Well, it isnt creating drama, and, being part of this wiki history, it's better if we salvage it from forgetfulness. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[cloned] [mod]} 13:03, 25 April 2008 (BST)

You missed a spot. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[cloned] [mod]} 19:51, 20 April 2008 (BST)

Did I get it? Was that it? --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 00:16, 21 April 2008 (BST)
