How might I see

The deleted "Small Groups" article, which was no doubt put up by an editor with limited experience and WP understanding, but that may—given the number of books appearing in the subject—be worthy of a stub, where can I have a look at this article? Respondez, ici [here] svp. Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 20:17, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

All Small groups has ever been is a redirect. Firstly to List of small groups (2008), and from 2011 to Small group which is a disambiguation. That is so far as I can see, and is on view in the history. There doesn't seem to be anything deleted. There's no invisible history at Small group either. Small Groups was deleted as advertising as it consisted of "Small Groups are groups of persons gathered together to discuss certain topics of interest in an organized manner. They often are official rostered sub-groups of a larger organizaion, and are usually found in religious organizations and churches. Small groups can be simply for informational exchange or to the degree of personal accountability for life based action plans." and a link to a promotional site whose name was very very close to the article title...

Hmmm thats very odd, the Stone Steel Brewing company or whatever

I don't doubt your decision and you are quite right, but on my screen from yesterday (delibrately I am not renewing the page so please excuse me for being a bit careful, bollox, not careful enough. But I looked at the page and when I listed there was not anything about stone beer brewing. I don't doubt your decision, and quite right decision, but on my screen (I have dismissed it, shit) it did not have anything about this brand/company at all. I doubt content has been added, but if it has, then all the better. My mistake probably, just Wikipedia served me a page without any mention in the article at all (not references, just not mention of any of the words). Perhaps Wikipedia applies a Stupid Englishman filter :) Si Trew (talk) 07:27, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

@SimonTrew: Wasn't it 'Stone Soup' brewed by New Glaurus? Never heard of it or them before, meself. It may not be in the article, but it ought to be with a name like that, so I've added it. And Pumpkin Pie Lust as well. The mind boggles. Mind you, I have drunk 'Friggin in the Riggin', and 'Hardy's Kiss' (both in Rochester), and tasted a cider called 'Rudolph's Bollocks' in a beer festival in the crypt of Liverpool's Metropolitan Cathedral (which is not underneath Liverpool Cathedral or the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral). Also, this was a possible rare example of Neelix getting something more or less right. (I have declined a couple more of his, though.) Peridon (talk) 19:45, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
yeah it was stone soup... to add to my troubleS THE RIGHT HAND side of my keyboard is playing up it wi;lbe pok just saying bacn (npot reqepo!) it's fine. 03:03, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

Draft:Kitmaker returns

You speedy deleted Draft:Kitmaker in January. I've been chasing them for COI under User:KitmakerGames, which is now blocked. The draft is back, one edit so far, not yet submitted for AfC review, with a IP user. Care to take a look? Thanks, LaMona (talk) 01:45, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

I've tagged it CSD for spam. I couldn't see it passing on notability if submitted anyway, but that's not a criterion at Draft. It could be a copyvio too, from the wording. Peridon (talk) 13:50, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
Per copyvio - yes, I checked that and the game descriptions are 100% from their copy. Thanks. LaMona (talk) 15:18, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
