Wiki Loves Pride 2014

Hi Pinkkeith. In case you are not aware, there is an upcoming campaign to improve coverage of LGBT-related topics on Wikipedia, culminating with an international edit-a-thon on June 21. See Wiki Loves Pride 2014 for more information. If you are interested, you might consider creating a page for a major city (or cities!) near you, with a list of LGBT-related articles that need to be created or improved. This would be a tremendous help to Wikipedia and coverage of LGBT culture and history. Thanks for your consideration, and please let me know if you have any questions! --Another Believer (Talk) 16:24, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

Sorry to be a bother, but do you know of any better sources for her birth date? esportsearnings.com isn't particularly reliable, as they get their data from tips and unreliable sites like the open TeamLiquid wiki. Scarlett is known for being protective of her privacy (which is understandable), and it doesn't seem like she or any reliable sources have reported this information.

About your profile

I'd like to ask your permission if I can copy part of its format and use it for my own profile. I've been looking for ways to get creative with my own even as I make contributions to various articles, yet even though I've been a wikipedian since 2009, there are still many things I don't understand. The reason I'm asking is because I like what you've contributed to a site that I've come to regard as something of a second or third home. Thank you. - Zach Hontiveros Pagkalinawan (talk) 16:17, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Betnijah Laney

Hello, Pink Fae. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Betnijah Laney, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Betnijah Laney to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Proposed deletion of Laura in the Kitchen

 

The article Laura in the Kitchen has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No indication of notability or importance.

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.

WNBA draft templates

I had started a discussion on this at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Basketball/Women's basketball/Archives/2020/April#WNBA draft templates when I made these edits. How about contributing to that discussion so we can come up with a global guideline? In my opinion, there is no need for three rounds and many (never said all) of those third-rounders historically are not notable per WP guidelines. You and I having a difference of opinion is all well and good, but it feels like we need more involved in the discussion to avoid the reverting over preference.

Proposed deletion of Patricia Babcock-McGraw

 

The article Patricia Babcock-McGraw has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.
