Speedy deletion nomination of The Edward & Rodney Show edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The Edward & Rodney Show requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Angry Python (talk) 04:54, 23 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Removing Speedy at The Edward & Rodney Show edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia, thank you for taking the time to create a page here. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you created yourself. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the deletion tag you removed from The Edward & Rodney Show. Please do not continue to remove the deletion tag, instead, if you disagree with the deletion, you can follow these steps:

  1. Go to the page by clicking this link. Once there, select the button that says Click here to contest this speedy deletion.
  2. This will take you to the talk page, where you can make your case by explaining why the page does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do. For further help about the deletion, you could contact the user who first placed the tag or a highly active user who is willingly to help with deletion. This message was left by a bot, so please do not contact the bot about the deletion. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 05:04, 23 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Re: Undo Page Deletion edit

Re your message: Sorry, but no. You need to show why your fan fiction is notable enough for inclusion on Wikipedia by providing the necessary references to reliable sources covering your fan fiction, such as reviews from mainstream news sources or articles about your show. While there are some fan fiction content that is notable, such as Star Trek: Phase II (fan series), most fan fiction is not notable. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:49, 23 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Re your message: I'm sorry, but the same rules apply for the list of episodes, too. I am willing to temporarily restore both articles into your user space so that you have keep a copy off Wikipedia for yourself. However, if I do so, the restored copies will be deleted again after 24 hours. The restoration does not mean that you can publish the articles back onto Wikipedia or continue work on them. They are only so that you can keep a copy for yourself outside of Wikipedia. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:00, 23 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
Re your message: I have temporarily restored the pages to User:EdtheRatchetHD/The Edward & Rodney Show and User:EdtheRatchetHD/List of The Edward & Rodney Show episodes. As I stated in my previous note, I will delete the articles again after 24 hours. If you copy them before the 24 hours expires, please leave me a note and I will delete the ahead of time. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:11, 23 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Per my note, I have re-deleted the two articles from your user space. I noticed that you copied the The Edward & Rodney Show article into your user page. While you may use your user page to draft articles, you can not use it to permanently hold a copy of an article. Can you provide the necessary references to establish your show's notability? -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 16:16, 24 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Bad news. edit

Ed, you're not allowed to use Wikipedia userspace as a free webhost to document the fanfic series you're writing. It all has to come down. All of it.

Now, because I'm nice, I'm going to give you the chance to save your content to your own hard drive. In fact, you could even download a free copy of the MediaWiki software and run it locally. Call it "EdPedia" or whatever.

So, that's why I'm not deleting everything right now. I'm giving you 48 hours to save whatever you want to save - text, images, all of it.

You can make this even easier by adding {{db-u1}} to each page once you're done with it; that will tag it for deletion as "userpage whose deletion has been requested by the person who created it". DS (talk) 19:17, 20 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

You are free to edit the content of User:EdtheRatchetHD during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such a removal will not end the deletion discussion.
