I love to do research: I am active in the navigation areas of the project, and I frequently do deletion sorting. i also start articles, my interests are varied.

  11. Andrewcrawford (talk - contrib) 14:18, 24 October 2009 (UTC) I am one that believes a lot of articles get delted just because of poor work, something is new so notabitly is hard ot prove but not necessarily not htere, and that there is a lot of editors out there that do not care about the topic or do not research it more

Articles shouldn't be deleted if they might do good, they should just be improved, even if drastic measures are taken and we have to 'Send Superior' instead of the 'town ambulance system,' which for me is another word of saying more people working more time on the project. 01:32, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

  15. Citizen-of-wiki (talk) 00:57, 24 August 2009 (UTC) The deletionists are not evil people they just get a little carried away sometimes. Someone needs to provide a balance to prevent Wikipedia from being deleted off the face of the earth. "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle." By Burke, Edmund in his "Thoughts on the Cause of the Present Discontents and the Two Speeches on America." [ Published 1770. Sixth Edition, Dodsley, 1784.]

  19. Cricket02 Yes, good idea. Lately I'm finding articles nominated for deletion with just minutes of its creation. To me that is biting the newcomers. I'll agree there are plenty that don't belong, but there are many that need saving too. ? Cricket02 01:19, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

  5. DGG (talk) 04:00, 17 July 2007 (UTC) - The key is balance, and willingnesss to improve articles--if everyone participated in one Afd and fixed one article and found one hopeless article to delete, we could really improve WP.
  6. Dhartung | Talk 21:52, 23 July 2007 (UTC) This is a lot of what I do already. I vote delete on things, but many times salvageable articles are deleted just because nobody cares to try. Nominators who fail to do research first are only part of the problem.

  12. Dream Focus 18:18, 26 February 2009 (UTC) When reason fails, societies break apart, and civilization crumbles around them. We must strive to stop the insanity here and now, not just to put out the fires others keep starting, but to rebuild what they have destroyed, restoring what was lost to us, so that the wikipedia can once again be what it was meant to be. Wiki means "casual", it an encyclopedia where anyone can edit, and add to as they see fit, without fear of overjudgmental people picking apart every little thing they do, and trying to erase it if it isn't just perfect by their standards.

  8. Thewinchester (talk) 03:06, 18 July 2007 (UTC) Having had to advocate for the deletion of bad articles such as Out Now Consulting and save Karrinyup Shopping Centre from crazed deletionists who don't know how to use cleanup tags, I can totally understand the purpose of this group.

  12. TomCat4680 (talk) 06:51, 23 February 2009 (UTC)Thanks for inviting me, glad to be here. I hate it when people nominiate pages I made for AFD.
  13. Trackinfo (talk) 05:25, 27 February 2010 (UTC) Good idea. I've already rescued and sourced several hundred "unsourced BLPs" that are at the heart of the current debate. I've been quite outspoken about the unnecessary deletion of articles, so I may as well be part of your group.
  14. Trey (talk) 03:59, 17 March 2009 (UTC) A noble cause i'll help where i can.
  15. Tvoz/talk 20:32, 24 February 2009 (UTC) As usual, DGG has it right - delete if it's hopeless, but fix if there's any hope. WE ARE NOT PAPER. Tvoz/talk 20:32, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

  1. Veraladeramanera</sup> T C Hi, I want to join ARS because I want to rescue articles on Wikipedia that have been AfD nominated because they lack "Encyclopedic info". That is not a good reason to Nominate them for deletion, no matter how little info they have! The only time an AfD nomination is really legitimate in my opinion is when they lack encyclopedic topics!
  2. Verbal chat 08:30, 6 May 2009 (UTC) If it's worth keeping then keep, but sometimes a fresh start is better. I do not support canvassing, and hope this group moves away from it.

  3. +A.Ou 03:04, 12 May 2009 (UTC) - Let no efforts be wasted.
  4. A20anna One of the things I think that can be improved is when a new person like me joined, I was immediately accused of something called sockpuppet. I was very hurt by that, and the funny thing was I did not even know what it was! They just posted this huge horrible sign on my talk page. I joined because of a few issues on page. So I will be a big defender of the Rescue Squad and its efforts. Happy Editing Love, Anna (talk) 05:06, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

  22. Dc76 12:41, 17 July 2007 (UTC) - Hi. I just saw the article about forming of this discussion group on Signpost, and I would like to join in. My reasons for joining are the ones presented above e.g. by DGG and Fuzheado. I suggest to start something like "AfR" (Articles for Rescue), where any person can nominate articles. The idea, as I understand, would be 1) to have a short discussion about what can be done with the particular article to improve it (or to recongnize it was unsalvageble), with specific propositions followed by 2) concrete actions ("I can do this. Here I am doing it. Now could you plz do that.") and 3) a final "vote" to see if the article has reached a level where it can be moved to mainspace.
  23. DHowell 22:51, 25 July 2007 (UTC) Sounds like a great idea. I'm also thinking of starting an "Article Adoption Agency" for articles which are useful and/or interesting (which as we all know won't save them from deletion) which get deleted despite the best efforts to rescue them, to find another wiki home to which they can be transwikied.
  24. dil (talk) 21:10, 23 February 2009 (UTC) Innocent until proven guilty - let those who would delete articles justify it.

Ikip (talk) 17:26, 23 February 2009 (UTC) I forgot to sign up myself :) What I love about the Rescue squardon is the indirect results: we help the wikipedia project retain new editors (who are the unintended victims of the vast majority of AfDs) by letting new editors know that their contributions are meaningful and valuable.

Random Fixer Of Things (talk) 18:19, 3 February 2008 (UTC) I am amazed by how many good (or potentially good) articles fall foul of PROD, SPEEDY and AFD and it seems that people not getting involved is what allows this to happen - "The only thing necessary for deletion is for good men to do nothing..."'
  45. Teeninvestor (talk) 01:26, 25 February 2009 (UTC) I've become very concerned with the actions of some users who simply delete content that can easily be improved.

  61. Nemogbr (talk) 23:05, 21 January 2010 (UTC) I would prefer an article to be improved rather than deleted. It is counterproductive to simply delete.
