Speedy deletion nomination of Penicilaria

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Penicilaria, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Moreover, please add more verifiable sources, not only 3rd party sources. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this:   which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Yasht101 23:25, 17 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Slow down!

For goodness sake, slow down! Stop creating taxobox-only articles. Create a proper article for one family at a time. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 00:58, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Your contributed article, Genera: Allopathes

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.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Genera: Allopathes. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Allopathes. 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 Allopathes - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, 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. 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. VQuakr (talk) 02:26, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Deleted taxon templates? Hey, probably best to start with species

edit

Hi Yolomojo, and again welcome to Wikipedia. Looks like you're having a little bit of a rough time here. Perhaps you could start by adding species articles before adding genera and higher order taxon templates? Allopathes desbonni is up and running and needs your expertise, as does the red-linked Allopathes denhartogi and Allopathes robillardi. And the "go-to guy" for invertebrate zoology here is Stemonitis. --Shirt58 (talk) 11:02, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hello

edit

Hey there. I don't know if you're still active or not, but don't give up. The first few articles are the most frustrating if you don't know what Wikipedia proofreaders are looking for. The first 150 edits I made here, which I thought were helpful, were called vandalism and were reverted. Eventually, though, you pick up what to write and what not to. I fixed up Cleistocarpida as best as I could if you want to use it as a reference. At any rate, let me know if you want any help with these articles that keep getting deleted.
