Undeletions It is now some time since 2020 Jan when I was "de-sysopped" and I am doing very little editing. I am now getting email notification of messages left and will probably respond. However since I am no longer an admin - I can no longer see the content of deleted articles and will usually be uninterested in helping you with such. For a copy of a deleted article, contact one of these admins or if you really think undeletion is justifiable, go to Requests for undeletion. RHaworth (talk · contribs) 2022 Feb 22 |

Listing Exchange Data International on Wikipedia
Hello, I am currently working on listing Exchange Data International as a Financial Data Vendor on Wikipedia. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Financial_data_vendors) I noticed you deleted the previous article. I was wondering if you would be kind enough to share some insights as to why the previous page was not good enough and the things to look out for creating a new article. Your input would be much appreciated. Many thanks, Sharon Otieno Cheksharon (talk) 14:25, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

Deletion of Page Jaan Nissar alone
Jaan Nissar Lone is the biggest Kashmiri Music Director and Producer and as the ambassador of culture I believe He deserves a Wikipedia page and only someone with ill will and vested interests would have requested a page deletion.
Can you please tell me why it was deleted? Hazytalks (talk) 02:32, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
- Hazytalks, if you cannot be bothered to provide a link, why should I bother to investigate? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:01, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
Acetylated Wood
I notice you deleted a page Acetylated wood in 2016 due to advertising. I have no idea what was on that page and had nothing to do with it.
The section in English on acetylated wood has much less information than the German acetylated wood Wiki page: Wood preservation#Wood acetylation.
I propose to translate the German Wiki page on Acetylated Wood to English. I have nothing to do with this industry, I just occasionally translate pages from German to English when I see there is no English page or the English page is lacking, compared to the German.
I don't think there is any significant advertising in the German article, but due to your previous deletion, before I spend significant time on this, would you mind checking this machine translation.
Note that the machine translation appears to be missing the latest edit, which includes references to other manufacturers of acetylated wood under the Market section. The latest version under Market when translated to English reads:
- There used to be only one manufacturer of acetylated wood under the brand name Accoya. Accsys Technologies (formerly Titan Wood), based in London and previously with a production facility in Arnhem in the Netherlands, began manufacturing the Monterey pine product on a larger scale in 2007 after much research.[3]
- Since at least 2012 there have been several manufacturers of acetylated wood such as Eastman Chemical and Accsys[4]

- Lkingscott, I am no longer an admin so I cannot see the content but, as you say, the deletion reason was advertising and the article in de: is patently not advertising. So my recommendation is: go for it! The page is not protected so go ahead and publish your translation. If you have reliable sources you could also add why the material has not become more popular and how it compares in price with steel or concrete. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:01, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
