Welcome!

Hello, Gunwriter, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Speedy deletion of Samuel "Dutch" Hillenburg

A tag has been placed on Samuel "Dutch" Hillenburg 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 a person or group of people, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. mhking (talk) 02:00, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

April 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Samuel "Dutch" Hillenburg, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. mhking (talk) 03:49, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Copyright problems with De Fleury

Hello. Concerning your contribution, De Fleury, please note that Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images obtained from other web sites or printed material, without the permission of the author(s). This article or image appears to be a direct copy from www.armyengineer.com/defleury_history.doc. As a copyright violation, De Fleury appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. De Fleury has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message.

If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

• If you have permission from the author, leave a message explaining the details at Talk:De Fleury and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.

Proposed deletion of Samuel "Dutch" Hillenburg

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Samuel "Dutch" Hillenburg, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

non-notable writer

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 02:07, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of John Coons

The article John Coons has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Appears to fail the Military History project's notability guidelines. While these guidelines are not official Wikipedia policy, they should be given due consideration when evaluating a historic military figure. In that light, it does not appear this individual is sufficiently notable.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Airtronic USA

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 Airtronic USA, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Robert R. Blackman Jr.. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 14:35, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Dwight Shepherd moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Dwight Shepherd, is not properly sourced as written to remain published. It needs the citations from reliable, independent sources to be placed inline at the ponts in the text to which they refer. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia).

I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Thank you for your submission. Eagleash (talk) 16:29, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Michelle C. Skubic

The article Michelle C. Skubic has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. —FORMALDUDE^(talk) 03:43, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Stephen D. Barnett

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 Stephen D. Barnett requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://issuu.com/flcps/docs/navsup_flcps_coc_program_2020, https://www.newsbreak.com/tennessee/columbia/archives/2020-02?page=2, and https://bremolympicnlus.wordpress.com/2020/12/07/dec-8-luncheon-speaker-rdml-stephen-barnett/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Officer articles

Hi! Good work on creating the many articles of U.S. Armed Forces officers. A number of articles you created though have been moved to drafts because they don't have reference. That could easily be remedied by including in the articles some references, including their official biographies and some independent news articles that feature them. Keep up the good work.

Ways to improve Thomas C. Waskow

Hello, Gunwriter,

Thank you for creating Thomas C. Waskow.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

This article contains no in-text citations at all (except for one in the infobox, which I added). Although I have no doubt that the references you provide at the bottom are the source of the article text, one should note within the body which reference is providing which set of information. For example, the information about Military assignments probably came from one reference - a single in-line citation could tell the reader which one.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|PopePompus}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Thomas C. Waskow, to Wikipedia, as doing so is not in accordance with our policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Wikipedia:Your first article; you might also consider using the Article Wizard. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. This article was moved from article space to draft space by a reviewer because it was not sourced up to guidelines for a biography of a living person but was then moved to article space without significant improvement, which illustrates a failure to collaborate or ask for help. This pattern seems to apply to other Air Force officers also. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:33, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Dermot "Pat" O'Neill

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 Draft:Dermot "Pat" O'Neill requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.irishcentral.com/roots/history/americas-deadliest-irishman-irish-james-bond and https://www.ozarkmtsdc.com/2020/10/18/history-of-self-defense-part-3-dermot-pat-oneill. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

WikiProject Military history

I notice you are interested in writing about military history. Just an FYI, you might find it interesting and helpful to have a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history. They're the most active Wikipedia project I can think of, and they have a large membership. They can be really helpful while developing an article. — Maile (talk) 00:10, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Hewitt ‘Buck’ Dunn

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 Hewitt ‘Buck’ Dunn, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

• It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
• It appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement of https://aviationtrails.wordpress.com/heroic-tales-of-world-war-2/msgt-hewitt-dunn-104-missions-with-the-390th-framlingham/.

Speedy deletion nomination of Hewitt ‘Buck’ Dunn

Hello Gunwriter,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Hewitt ‘Buck’ Dunn for deletion, because it's a redirect from an article title to a namespace that's not for articles.

If you don't want Hewitt ‘Buck’ Dunn to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!
