best-selling book The Beautiful Team In Search of the 1970 Brazilians and have met, interviewed and written about these footballers for the past ten years. I have a website www.beautifulteam.net to which I linked my contributions but cannot see that this falls foul of your rules. Essentially I have more unique, copyrighted, biographical information on my site than can be fitted on to Knowledge (XXG). By visiting my site your readers will be able to get more information as well as view videos of the players in their pomp. I was intending to build biographies of each of the members of the team on Knowledge (XXG). None of the current ones - apart from Pele - are any good at all. (I thought I had added something new to Pele's page on the derivation of his name, but that was taken down too.) I see little point in doing so now. Thanks Garry Jenkins
169:, which clearly encourages coexistence of lists and categories), or the circular logic that this category could never be recreated because it had been deleted earlier. As this category had been changed and provided clear inclusion criteria, these arguments are not valid rationalizations for deletion. Regardless of the results of this DRV, the entire CfD process needs to have greater involvement from the community as a whole, and not just from the same three or four editors and admin who have imposed their arbitrarily restrictive definition of what categories should be. 561:). I asked TenPoundHammer to get consensus for the page move and I'd take care of the category. After pointing me to one user that posted at his talk page and a discussion at IRC which I have no access to as proof of consensus, we're here. I'll repeat: get consensus for the page move and I'll strike this endorsement. -- 329:

I would like to know why all the contributions I have made to Knowledge (XXG) have been removed? They all related to members of the 1970 Brazilian football team, a subject which - I think I can modestly say - I know more about than anyone else in the English speaking world. I am the author of the

As the closing editor, I didn't see anything close to approaching a consensus and even after relisting I didn't see a consensus build itself. It can be relisted in a month or two (not five days from when the last AfD was closed) but if there's no consensus then there's nothing to appeal really.
