The article Gina Vaia has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
None of the references gives her substantial coverage, several are just YouTube videos, and a couple don't seem to even mention her.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. Breaking sticks (talk) 21:42, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
An extended welcome
editHi AppassionatoDiSport. Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily.
Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.
If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter. Regardless, editing in a manner that promotes an entity or viewpoint over others can appear to be detrimental to the purpose of Wikipedia and the neutrality required in articles.
Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.
I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Ronz (talk) 17:11, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
- THANK YOU so much for this advice. I will try your suggestions and see how it goes. I love to write biographies and find special people interesting and believe some do deserve articles, but your point is well taken. Appreciated!AppassionatoDiSport (talk) 19:33, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Request reason:
I do not have multiple accounts whatsoever. However, I do share this computer with my son who also participates in edits and contributions. Not sure what else to say this seems abrupt an accusatory. AppassionatoDiSport (talk) 18:59, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Given what I can see, your explanation doesn't seem very credible. —DoRD (talk) 19:19, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- Without knowing what you are 'seeing' how am I supposed to defend myself? This is completely unfair and blind. Has anyone actually seen my body of work to determine some sort of abuse which I am being accused of? I have heard of this kind of thing happening on Wiki but WOW.AppassionatoDiSport (talk) 11:37, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
