So people, I would like to request that all the old non-notable
articles be given to me for archiving on speedydeletion,
artists, bands, websites, hotels etc, would that be possible?
thanks
mike

Mike do you realise how big a task that would be? We have stats going back
to December 2004 showing millions of such deletions. We have data going
back further, but some of our earliest edits are no longer available.
Providing we screen out the children releasing personal details, the

Hi Mike,
I can't give you access to deleted edits, only the community can do that
and they are notoriously picky as to who they appoint as admins.
Also it is not a practical task for one person or even a dozen persons. Why
don't you start with my suggestion about articles that are now redirects?
How is this,
can you extract the following :
1. only well formed wikisyntax.
2. only where age is given, and over 18
3. only where a {{twitter|account} is given
then i will process those first, and can twitter them we can go from
the responses to process them.

My view on this is that this is one area where a little bit of money

The India related pages are typically being deleted because of the
lack of references in the submitted article, and the almost total
inability of editors elsewhere to find sources for this area except
of a few major newspapers. It is extremely frustrating to find such
an article on Proposed

Wouldn't it be more efficient to direct people to OSM and wikitravel

Thanks Martjn,
yes, that is what I am saying, people are willing to submit trivial
data for the hope of becoming famous,
because WP is now the number one web page, instead of deleting it, I
say, lets process it.
I have been studying the speedy deletion data for the past days,
tuning my program,
Apparently we need to be a good deal stricter about hotel entries.
Notability we can deal with--the content in them is considerably more
difficult to police.
