This user is the owner of one other Wikipedia account in a manner permitted by policy and it is registered with the arbitration committee.

A tag has been placed on Wiegold requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

[Wiegold is a German surname not Welsh]

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. This is being listed for deletion - whats the article states is untrue and is not fact and there are no proof, how it stayed up so long is anybodies guess.

Please leave alone. Speedy delete reinstated!

Pandaplodder, you need to read WP:CSD. Speedy deletion is only used for set criteria. This is not a valid one. You can use WP:PROD or WP:AFD. ~ GB fan 12:38, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pandaplodder, Since you seem to not be listening, I have added a valid deletion template to the article and removed your invalid speedy deletion template. ~ GB fan 12:45, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, appreciate that Pandaplodder (talk) 13:16, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello GB fan I saw that you just removed the PROD BLP tag from Márton Báder. I saw the article myself yesterday and noted that there were sources of sorts - in that situation, can I, as a non-admin, remove the tag myself? Or is that only something that admins are permitted to do? Cheers, SunloungerFrog (talk) 11:55, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SunloungerFrog, Anyone can remove the BLPPROD in the situation where the tag was improperly placed. You just need to be able to justify the removal. The justification is that there was a source (reference, external link) on the article that confirms something in the article when the BLPPROD was added. In this case the first external link confirms his birthdate and birthplace. That is enough to say the BLPPROD was not appropriate. Another case of removing a BLPPROD is shown in Mariann Byerwalter. I removed the BLPPROD because in the past there were sources on the article that had been removed from the article. This is also an inappropriate use of BLPPROD as there were sources on the article in the past. If you have any questions, let me know. ~ GB fan 12:45, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah thank you very much. There are two other BLPs that are on my radar, but I think in both cases the BLPPROD stands:

• Zoltán Jovánczai - there are two external links, but neither confirms anything in the article.
• Péter Lelkes - there is one external link, but it does not currently, and never did (according to Wayback Machine), confirm anything in the article.

I'd be grateful if you would confirm that my analysis is correct in those cases.

SunloungerFrog, I have seen both of those BLPPRODs and agree with your assessment. ~ GB fan 13:01, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
