II-VI Incorporated (talk|edit|history|logs|links|watch) (restore) Recently (on 5 October 2020) User:Newslinger moved the article II-VI Incorporated to Draft:II-VI Incorporated and then he deleted it. On the discussion page at User talk:I-Supotco he wrote that the article was a copyright violation. When I created the initial version of that article (probably around June 2019), I made sure that it did not contain any copyright violation. I think that at that time, also the overall article was written in a reasonable way. Afterwards somebody else mad changes where he removed most references and added the text which might be a copyright violation. So instead of deleting the entire article, I think it would be better to restore it to the last acceptable version. (Previously I used the username User:I-Supotco but I lost the password for that account, so I am now using the new username User:I-Supotco-new.)

Hobit (talk) 19:21, 30 December 2020 (UTC) Restore with copyvio fixed. Allow listing at AfD. The log says 09:22, 5 October 2020 Newslinger (talk · contribs) deleted page Draft:II-VI Incorporated (Multiple reasons: speedy deletion criteria G11, G12. Source URL: https://web.archive.org/web/20180829151804/http://www.ii-vi.com/about/about.html) On G12, did Newslinger disregard where there is no non-infringing content on the page worth saving? On G11, someone wants to discuss it, so send to AfD. Forbid any further draftifications (aka back door deletion) unless tha is the consensus at AfD. Users want this in mainspace. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:30, 31 December 2020 (UTC) Restore edits up to 17:49, 12 September 2019 and toss everything after that beginning with AndrewMcD51’s first edit on 17:58, 26 September 2019. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 03:54, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
