January 2011 edit

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Massaman curry has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://montrealfoodblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/thai-mussaman-beef-curry.html. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 11:26, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Joaquin Lievano 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 Joaquin Lievano 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "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. Way2veers 01:53, 18 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Really edit

Having reviewed your filing at WP:REFUND, I have one question: does resorting to insults instead of good faith usually work for you? You might have actually had a point in your request, but you lost all credibility by acting like a jerk. This is a community. When you ask for a favour, it usually pays to ask nicely. Nevertheless, I'll direct you to WP:FIRSTARTICLE and WP:NMUSIC - draft articles don't belong in articlespace - that's why you have spaces to make a WP:USERSPACEDRAFT. If you think you can write something appropriate without resorting to insulting others, please feel free to do so in draft space. Oh, and by the way, I had the chance to buy the Madonna blow-up doll, but was able to get the Tiffany (singer) and Debbie Gibson ones as a two-pack instead, and have been able to keep them both relatively puncture-free.

Appallingly badly written edit

Considering the contentious nature of the material contained in this article, I would have expected that it would have been a bit more thoroughly looked at by competent native English-speaking editors. The very first sentence reads: "Controversies surrounding Yasukuni Shrine are a major international issues surrounding the Yasukuni Shrine," which is appalling English that has obviously been written by someone whose first language is not English.

There follows the laughable statement "Yasukuni is a shrine to house the actual souls of the dead as kami," -- Indeed? Can you buy tickets to perhaps talk to them, or do they have limited visiting hours?

I won't go any further except to say that this article needs more than attributions. It needs a rewrite from the ground up by a native English writer.
