March 2014 edit

  Hello. I noticed that you attempted to file a deletion discussion (on the article Korran) but did not complete the process. Please note that, when listing an article for deletion, a discussion page needs to be made for other users to discuss whether to keep or delete the article. This is typically done by following the steps listed here. Note that if you are editing as an unregistered user, you cannot create a discussion page. Please consider registering an account or asking another user to help you complete the process at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion. Thank you. ansh666 20:24, 31 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

MOS edit

I know you mean well, and I think Jc3s5h was a bit harsh [1] but he's right -- the examples you've been adding just don't seem necessary for these very obvious points. EEng (talk) 18:32, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Revisiting an AfD edit

Hi there!

I've seen you hanging out a bit on the Paranormal AfD page, hope you're enjoying having discussions. However, I was hoping that you could revisit this one. I have no doubt it will survive AfD, so I'm not worried about changing a vote, but your reasoning doesn't hold up to scrutiny. If you look at how the article is now, and how it was, you can see that a quick Google search would have shown you that the subject was not a hoax. If you would please bare this in mind next time you go to make a vote on anything, I would very much appreciate it. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 16:55, 7 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your contributed article, Abraham Lincoln hat edit

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

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Abraham Lincoln hat. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Abraham Lincoln. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Abraham Lincoln – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Ruby Murray 16:28, 22 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Cartozoology edit

 

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

Enirely-non notable trivial pursuit of finding animal shapes in street maps. Witless use of paradigmatically, a word almost always used when people do not know what they are trying to say. Already fully covered in [[2]]. Probable copyvio, since most google hits have same text, but since the origin may have been on a non copyright site am not going down that route.

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.
