This page has a Draft already at Draft: Shanaya Kapoor. I want to improve it. For that references being discussed in its previous AFD of this page may be useful. How can I access them? Can that page content be pasted over current Draft, or maybe somewhere in my userspace. —Parnaval (talk) 20:44, 21 October 2026 (UTC)
@Parnaval:Done. Restored and merged under the draft. BD2412T 02:32, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
In case you wonder about the similar requests above and below: I am currently going through the talk page archive at Wikipedia talk:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia, which has a number of discussions that ended with consensus to add some item to the list (example), only for that to never happen -- likely because nobody felt responsible. Renerpho (talk) 00:24, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
Hi Renerpho, please don't swamp request boards with a ton of requests all at once (unless actually time sensitive). Remember we are all just volunteers with only such much time and lots of people wanting admin assistance. We will get to these but in future can you please space such request out over a period of time. Thanks KylieTastic (talk) 08:32, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
@KylieTastic: My apologies; this is a one-off occurrence. I have a handful pages I had planned to add here in a couple days time, and then I'd be done with it. Is there a way to bundle undeletion requests? Renerpho (talk) 10:00, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
Listing them individually is better than bundling them together, then they can be done individually. The problem is dumping large amounts of work on others at one time. They are then likely to either gen admins skip over them to others, or others have to wait while all these get processed. I'm also not sure that we need endless examples. KylieTastic (talk) 11:48, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
Renerpho, Done However, for this one I'm also not sure it is a hoax per se as if you go to the listed coordinates 30°30′06″N 77°28′57″E on google maps several of the local places have addresses listed as "Dhaula Kuan". A local school with the website https://brilliantmountsrsecschool.com/ lists its address as "Dhaulakuan, Paonta Sahib Sirmaur (HP) 173025." This is the trouble with G3 deletions, some are just badly sourced, not actual hoaxes. I'll check later after work, but I think this one should be removed and maybe draftified. KylieTastic (talk) 11:53, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
The trouble with that one is that there was an argument in the AfD discussion for Mandhara that all three articles created by that user were hoaxes -- Mandhara, Dhaulakuan, and Dadahu. The latter is a real place, but the coordinates that were added to its page in 2010 by a bot are wrong. There's no settlement in that location, the elevation is off by over a thousand feet, and the only source for the article has been identified as a backwards copy. Edits like Special:Diff/367367050 don't inspire much confidence, but this turns out to be completely factual. Renerpho (talk) 12:08, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
Please restore this article to draftspace (Draft:Supreme Components International). It was deleted on 11 August 2026 as an expired PROD. I work with the company, so I have a conflict of interest. I'd like to rewrite it neutrally with independent sources and submit it through Articles for Creation. Thank you. —Eclectiva (talk) 04:49, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
The page was deleted due to failing WP:NSOFT, but content from the page was previously used to make LHASA. Since "Lhasa (computing)" would be a reasonable redirect to "LHASA", I believe the easiest way to preserve attribution would be to restore Lhasa (computing) and redirect it to LHASA. —– BrandonXLF (talk) 05:58, 22 October 2026 (UTC)

I originally uploaded it with a non-free license because I was unaware of threshold of originality at the time. I wasn't active when it went up for deletion, but I believe it is simple enough that it could qualify as PD-textlogo and be eligible for transfer to commons. Rather than simply re-uploading it, I figured I'd request undeletion to see if my evaluation is sound. (If not, then I won't post it to commons, obviously.) I don't contest the deletion argument based on the license in use at the time. —Crimson Bleeding SouIIs (talk) 11:09, 23 October 2026 (UTC)
Please restore Extended Vector Animation to Draft space. It was deleted through expired PROD in 2024 because it was unsourced and essentially unchanged since 2003.

Ligia Maura Costa
Dear Wikipedia Team,
I recently became aware that the Wikipedia page dedicated to my academic and professional career has been deleted.
I would appreciate clarification regarding the reasons for this decision, particularly in light of my more than three decades of academic experience, my position as Professor of Law at Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV EAESP), my involvement with international organizations and initiatives, and my extensive academic publications with national and international publishers, including Palgrave Macmillan.
I would be grateful if you could explain the specific criteria that led to the deletion, the procedure followed, and whether there is an opportunity to request a review of this decision.
Thank you for your attention. I look forward to your clarification.
Enter your reasoning here and then click the "Add topic" button below —~2026-56632-35 (talk) 23:49, 23 October 2026 (UTC)
Not done. The article you are here about was deleted after a discussion took placeat Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ligia Maura Costa. If you believe that the outcome of the discussion did not reflect the consensus of the participants, or that significant new information has come to light since the article was deleted, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion for draftification. After you do so, if your concerns are not addressed and you still seek undeletion, a request may be made at deletion review. Summary of reasons: fails to meet WP:NPROF, sources are not independent, and the page was probably a copyright infringement. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 00:52, 24 October 2026 (UTC)

Requested action:** Restoration to Draft:China Law Blog under WP:REFUND
I am requesting restoration of the China Law Blog article, which was deleted on March 6, 2018. The discussion closed as a soft delete, expressly permitting restoration under WP:REFUND.
I am Dan Harris, one of China Law Blog's founders and principal authors. I am also a founder of Harris Sliwoski LLP, the law firm that publishes it. I recognize and disclose my conflict of interest and am requesting restoration for independent review rather than attempting to publish an article about my own work.
I have reviewed the 2018 deletion discussion. The principal objection was that China Law Blog lacked significant coverage in independent, reliable sources and that the article relied too heavily on the professional accomplishments of its authors.
I understand that objection. However, substantial independent recognition and coverage of China Law Blog itself exists, including sources not identified in the deletion discussion and recognition occurring after 2018.
The most relevant independent sources include:**
1. ABA Journal — Blawg 100 Hall of Fame**
The *ABA Journal* inducted China Law Blog into its Blawg 100 Hall of Fame following repeated recognition in its annual selections of legal blogs. Legal journalist Robert Ambrogi independently confirmed the designation in a December 8, 2014 article explaining the ABA Journal's selection process.
This recognition is particularly relevant because Wikipedia's WP:WEB guideline expressly identifies receipt of a well-known, independent award as a potential basis for notability.
2. Business Insider — The 15 Most Influential Law Blogs (September 24, 2012)**
Business Insider* ranked China Law Blog No. 12 among its fifteen most influential legal blogs. Its editors independently assessed the publication and specifically praised the clarity and usefulness of its China legal coverage.
This is direct editorial recognition of China Law Blog as a publication, independent of its authors' professional reputations.
3. Attorney at Work and eChinacities — Dedicated Coverage**
Attorney at Work* published a June 2014 feature examining China Law Blog's history, authorship, publishing practices, and ABA Journal recognition. Although much of the feature is an interview, its subject is the blog itself.
Separately, eChinacities published *The Best China Business Blogs*, which discusses China Law Blog's history, editorial focus, and coverage of Chinese business law.
4. China Briefing — Independent Editorial Coverage**
China Briefing* has discussed and evaluated China Law Blog on multiple occasions. Its October 29, 2008 article, *China Joint Ventures Rehabilitated? Big Business Thinks So*, analyzes and challenges several China Law Blog articles concerning Chinese joint ventures.
In February 2020, *China Briefing* again evaluated China Law Blog, this time critically, in its assessment of China business publications.
These articles are relevant because they represent independent editorial engagement with the publication's content and development, including unfavorable assessments.
Following the Wikipedia deletion, the 2019 LexBlog Excellence Awards named a China Law Blog article, *The US-China Cold War Starts Now: What You Must Do to Prepare*, a joint first runner-up for Best News or Trend Analysis. The competition received more than 400 entries and used an independent panel of legal-media judges.
This recognition concerns an individual article rather than the blog as a whole, but it provides evidence of continuing editorial recognition after 2018.
China Law Blog's reporting and legal analysis have also been relied upon by major news organizations and academic publications.
For example, *The Wall Street Journal* cited and discussed China Law Blog's published legal analysis in two Peter Lattman articles from February 21 and May 11, 2006:
The blog has also been cited in academic legal scholarship, including Andrew Godwin's 2009 *Melbourne University Law Review* article on China's regulation of foreign lawyers. At page 146, footnote 57, Godwin identifies China Law Blog as the source of an English translation of a Shanghai Bar Association memorandum used in his research.
I recognize that citations to individual blog posts are not necessarily significant coverage of the publication under WP:GNG. They are offered as supporting evidence of its historical role, not as substitutes for the independent recognition and editorial coverage described above.
Requested restoration**
The available sources establish a substantially stronger record than was presented during the 2018 deletion discussion. China Law Blog has received independent editorial recognition, dedicated media coverage, substantive outside evaluation, and continuing citations in journalism and legal scholarship.
I am not requesting that the original article be reinstated unchanged. I agree that any replacement should focus on the publication's history, independent recognition, editorial coverage, and documented reception, including criticism. It should not rely on the professional accomplishments of its authors or contain promotional language.
I therefore request restoration of the deleted article and its revision history to **Draft:China Law Blog**, so that it can be substantially revised and submitted for independent review under Wikipedia's applicable notability, sourcing, neutrality, and conflict-of-interest standards.

I'd like to resume work on this draft, which was deleted under G13 in May 2024. Since it was declined in November 2023, I have located independent coverage that addresses the reviewers' notability concerns: a critical review in the Melbourne Times (6 August 1980), a feature in The Age (4 May 1982) and a feature in The Straits Times (December 1983), along with her works held in the City of Port Phillip and La Trobe University collections. I'm the subject's son and will declare my conflict of interest on my user page and the draft's talk page, and will submit through Articles for Creation rather than publishing directly. Thank you.

I would like to request the undeletion of this draft under CSD G8 and G11. I found additional sources about Lans from reliable media outlets, including ABS-CBN, Inquirer’s Bandera, SPOT.ph, and GMA Network. I would like to use these sources to improve the draft, add proper citations, and address any issues with the previous version. Thank you. —AdobongPogimasarap 🍛 15:05, 25 October 2026 (UTC)

Move to a draft or sandbox so I could "possibly" help expand this for notability. —OWaunTon (talk) 22:13, 25 October 2026 (UTC)
OWaunTon, Userfied – the page has been restored to the userspace at Draft:Streamline Publishing. We don't usually refund A7s here but as the deleting admin is no longer an admin this is a fair request. Not sure your going to be inspired by the content though.

Hi, I'm Soulbust, and I would like to request the undeletion of this draft deleted under CSD G13 or U6. Please restore the page so that I can make edits to it. Thank you.

Soulbust (talk) 23:05, 25 October 2026 (UTC)
Soulbust, Declined pending further information. This was undeleted over six months ago with a pledge that it would be worked on, but no edits were made to improve the entry for resubmission. Draft space is not an indefinite hosting service for material found to be unsuitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia's article mainspace. We may be willing to restore it again, but only if you provide a definite assurance that you actually intend to work on it and provide a short description of what you intend to do to improve it to meet our policies and guidelines. Please advise.. Note that this has been refunded twice now with no edits. KylieTastic (talk) 23:09, 25 October 2026 (UTC)
I do not recall "pledging" in the previous request for undeletion and there were definitely some edits post-previous undeletion, I just let the six months lapse again. But again, "I was able to acquire a copy of the book, so I'm able to read it and work along on this article now in earnest", so I guess I'm pledging that now (same with my request for Draft:Are You Listening? below. Soulbust (talk) 23:37, 25 October 2026 (UTC)
SoulbustDone. Note the "pledge" part of the notice is a very general interpretation on the requests saying "Please restore the page so that I can make edits to it". It's just to note that this process is for un-deletion for the purpose of moving things forward in some way. Just note that if there are no edits for a third time it is unlikely to be refunded again.

I think my reply about Draft:Wild Spaces above covers everything I would want to say, but yeah again, I have acquired the book, so I'm actually able to edit it now. And by "actually" I mean, without spoiling myself through sourcing. So I'll be reading these 2 books along, and actually go through the sourcing. My previous concerns were that I actually wanted to read these 2 books, and didn't want the sourcing to spoil their content for me. Now I'm actually able to read through the books and the sourcing. Thanks. Soulbust (talk) 23:40, 25 October 2026 (UTC)

Former logo of radio station KRQV. Originally uploaded as non-free content but seems too simple to be eligible for copyright protection under US copyright law; so, I've converted the file's licensing to "PD-logo". The originally uploaded version/revision (deleted per F5) should be OK to restore/unhide as long as it's the same version. Could an admin check this and restore it if it is? This will make it easier for someone to move the file to Commons. —Marchjuly (talk) 01:00, 26 October 2026 (UTC)

Xircellen Ray, Toufic Kreidieh was deleted as G11 not G13/U6 and Draft:Toufic Kreidieh was a much older G7. Which are you reffering too?If Toufic KreidiehNot done – this page was deleted as a blatant advertisement under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion and Wikipedia is not to be used as a vehicle for promotion. This does not necessarily mean a suitable article on this topic cannot be created. If it is a notable topic, e.g., multiple reliable, secondary, published sources that are entirely independent of the subject have written about it in substantive detail (not just mere mentions), then a neutrally written article may be possible.

Xircellen Ray, Done— Note there are 3 different versions in the history. It appears the creator asked for deletion before re-creation of the same (possibly identical... I just quickly looked) and then resubmitting which appears to be why the last attempt got rejected. Regards KylieTastic (talk) 16:08, 26 October 2026 (UTC)
