When you recently edited [[Lilliput Lane]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Miniature]] ([[tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Lilliput_Lane|check to confirm]]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[[tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Lilliput_Lane|fix with Dab solver]]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small> It's OK to remove this message.

I'm dropping you a note because you filled out the New Page Patrol survey, and indicated you'd be interested in being contacted about follow-up work. This is to notify you that we've finally released both the [[WP:NPT|initial documentation]] about the project and also the [[Wikipedia:New Page Triage/Engagement strategy|engagement strategy]], which sets out how we plan to work with the community on this. Please give both a read, and leave any comments or suggestions you have on the talkpage, on ''my'' talkpage, or in my inbox - {{nospam|okeyes|wikimedia.org}}. It's awesome to finally get to start work on this! :).

I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of [[:Leonard Rosoman]], a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''The Guardian obituary had plenty of evidence to support notability when the A7 was raised.'''

Thanks to all of you who have commented on the [[Wikipedia talk:New Page Triage|New Page Triage talkpage]]. If you haven't had a chance yet, check it out; we're discussing some pretty interesting ideas, both from the Foundation and the community, and moving towards implementing quite a few of them :). In addition, on Tuesday 13th March, we're holding an [[m:IRC office hours|office hours]] session in #wikimedia-office on IRC at 19:00 UTC (11am Pacific time). If you can make it, please do; we'll have a lot of stuff to show you and talk about, including (hopefully) a timetable of when we're planning to do what. If you can't come, for whatever reason, let me know on [[User talk: Okeyes (WMF)|my talkpage]] and I'm happy to send you the logs so you can get an idea of what happened :).

I hope to see you all there :). In the meantime, I have greatly expanded the details available at [[Wikipedia:New Page Triage]]: there's a lot more info about precisely what we're planning. If you have ideas, and they aren't listed there, bring them up and I'll pass them on to the developers for consideration in the second sprint. And if you know anyone who might be interested in contributing, send them there too!

To do this, I used existing wikipedia pages from similar products as an example. The descriptions on some of those pages go into a lot more detail about those products, such as naming, pricing, functionality, etc. Examples: [[AutoCAD]], [[ArcGIS Server]], [[ArcGIS Explorer]], [[SOCET SET]], [[ERDAS IMAGINE]]. I feel like I really pared it down to basic information that is so much less than these sites describe, yet my page is still being deleted as "blatant advertising". Can you please tell me what I need to do to get my page up there without being deleted? Thanks [[User:Keith134|Keith134]] ([[User talk:Keith134|talk]]) 18:24, 14 March 2012 (UTC) :Hello there! Thanks for your question. When I patrol new pages, I use my previous experience of patrolling pages, the [[WP:MoS|Manual of Style]] & [[WP:Advert]] to help me make an informed decision on what action to take on a specific article. When I read through the article you created, a few things - many subtle - gave me the impression that it could be [[WP:Spam#Advertisements_masquerading_as_articles|an advertisement masquerading as an article]]. For instance: #The all caps title - many people who wish to gain exposure, or feel the subject is important in some way personal to them, type the title in all caps. In Wikipedia, this doesn't expose the article, or rank it higher in search listings. I see from the other articles you linked to, i.e [[ERDAS IMAGINE]], that this is not the case in this instance. #The style of writing - You say you used other articles as a kind of template. Good, sort of. We do encourage this on Wikipedia - after all, there would be no need for a Manual of Style otherwise, but if a page you used as a template has a few problems (usually shown by dated maintenance tags at the top of the article), then try and find another. #Lack of links - A lack of links in articles may mean that the content has been copy/pasted from a source - sometimes breaking copyright. Ensure you add links to relevant articles. #Lists and bullet points - a lot of lists or bullet points (except on talk pages or disambiguation/list pages) can be used for promotion of the subject. :I recommend you read the [[WP:MOS|Manual of Style]]. If you want your article back, it's definitely possible. [[User_talk:NawlinWiki|Contact the deleting administrator]] and ask for the page to be userfy'd. The article will be restored to your userspace (i.e [[User:Keith134/ERDAS APOLLO]]) where you can work on it. :If you would like, I can actively work on the article once restored with you to ensure it meets standards.

I have worked on the article extensively and believe that it now is close to meeting Wikipedia standards. I have added a number of third-party references. I didn't have any bullet points in the article; did you mean the section titles? Are they satisfactory? ::Also wasn't entirely sure what you meant by dated maintenance tags? ::I am going to post the changes that I made to [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ERDAS_APOLLO ERDAS APOLLO]] now; your help in ensuring that the article is satisfactory would be much appreciated. - [[User:Keith134|Keith134]] ([[User talk:Keith134|talk]]) 18:06, 15 March 2012 (UTC) :::Hi, I'm sorry but the article appears to have been moved, and then deleted, before I got a chance to look at it!

Thank you again for your assistance! - [[User:Keith134|Keith134]] ([[User talk:Keith134|talk]]) 21:39, 15 March 2012 (UTC) :::::OK, I've moved the article to [[User:Keith134/Erdas_Apollo]] where we can work on it unhindered. An important thing to note though is not to add <nowiki>{{hangon}}</nowiki> tags to the top of the article. The tag is depreciated, and it also adds it the the hidden Speedy Deletion categories - meaning it is more likely to be deleted. I won't be able to review tonight, but I will have a look over the next few days.
