Overlorde edit

A tag has been placed on Overlorde, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. adavidw 05:34, 16 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Re: F-Zero edit

No one bothered to edit it / no one cared to. That's what happens when theres a lack of those willing to edit GBA F-Zero pages. If your interested in how you can help out with current or future F-Zero projects, let me know. FMF|contact 21:44, 18 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

=Kimbo Slice edit

I reverted your edit to his MMA record. The bout against Mercer was an exhibition bout, so it doesn't actually count towards his pro record. I have multiple sources listed on his talk page showing that it was an exhibition. Thesaddestday 00:53, 7 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

July 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Shane Carwin, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This is particularly important when adding or changing any facts or figures and helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.
Please do not add commentary (such as "sufficiently control" and "significantly slower") without citing appropriate sources.

Speedy deletion nomination of Moonlyght 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 Moonlyght 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 band or musician, 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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can 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 a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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.

Disambiguation link notification for February 9 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mixed martial arts, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Matt Hughes (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Edson Barboza Chin edit

Hi. I added Edson Barboza to the list of weak chins in correct alphabetical order and then for some inexplicable reason you reverted my edit and then placed it yourself out of alphabetical order after Zaromskis (yes with a "Z"). Why would you do that? It makes no sense. No offense, but stuff like this is what I hate about editing this otherwise great site. Aoa8212 (talk) 09:47, 23 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
