Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles you created. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please do the following:

  1. Place {{hangon}} on the page. Please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag(s).
  2. Make your case on the article's talk page.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 15:45, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hi there Amyngrant! I saw that you added a {{hangon}} tag to a page which you created, Disco Heaven (The Fame B=2.0). This is good, but in the process you removed the tag requesting deletion under CSD A1. Even though there is a hangon on the page, the deletion template should remain there. But don't worry, this doesn't mean that your page is going to get deleted. Make sure you edit the talk page of the page nominated for deletion, administrators will look at your reason why the page should remain before they make a decide what to do. Thanks - SDPatrolBot (talk) 15:53, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Welcome to Wikipedia! I'm glad you want to get involved, but I'm afraid there's a problem with the article you created, Ecuador & Ecuador Reloaded. It did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Don't feel too badly; lots of people have a little trouble when creating their first article. You might find it useful to read Your First Article for some good advice about starting to create articles on Wikipedia. Two important rules of thumb are: Avoid writing about yourself, your business, your family and friends, or your web page, and avoid writing about anything that hasn't been written about in reliable sources like books, newspapers, and magazines. Anyway, don't be discouraged. I've deleted the article you created, and feel free to ask me if you have any more questions. If I've made a mistake, and this article really is about a subject that meets the notability criteria, then please let me know my leaving me a message and links to at least three newspaper articles, magazine articles, or books that have been written about the subject, and I'll be glad to undelete it, and even add the sources so no other patroller makes the same mistake. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 20:11, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Ecuador & Ecuador Reloaded

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Ecuador & Ecuador Reloaded 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 about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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 this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Advice

edit

Is Ecuador and Ecuador Reloaded a band? An album? A political party? Does it meet the notability guidelines? What significance sources have written about it? Why is it so important that an international encyclopedia needs an article about it? We don't know if the article doesn't say, so to avoid deletion, don't recreate the article until you've made sure it clearly shows the answers to those questions. Thanks! -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 20:16, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Ecuador Reloaded

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Ecuador Reloaded requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a musical recording which does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, and where the artist's article has never existed, has been deleted or is eligible for deletion itself. 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Wiz Khalifa (Greatest Hits Edition) album cover.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 20:11, 12 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
