Proposed deletion of Alan strong

edit
 

The article Alan strong has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. reddogsix (talk) 03:33, 19 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Alan strong

edit

Hello Astrong1,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Alan strong for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. JamKaftan (talk) 04:06, 19 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Alan strong, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. reddogsix (talk) 04:08, 19 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from pages that you have created yourself, as you did with this edit to Alan strong. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Jim1138 (talk) 04:12, 19 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Alan strong. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

  This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you remove a speedy deletion notice from a page you have created yourself, as you did with this edit to Alan strong. Jim1138 (talk) 04:24, 19 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Blocked

edit
 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of one week for disruptive editing - repeatedly removing a speedy deletion tag despite warnings, and deliberate vandalism to other articles in edits such as this, this and this. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  JohnCD (talk) 10:07, 19 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Alan Strong article

edit

Hahc21 (talk) offered to move the article into your user space "if you agree not to move it to mainspace until it's finished and reviewed by an experienced editor", but you went ahead and re-created it in the main encyclopedia anyway. I have moved it to User:Astrong1/Alan Strong; after your block expires, you can ask Hahc21 whether it can be posted as an article. Any attempts to evade your block, or further childish vandalism like this, will result in a much longer block. JohnCD (talk) 10:32, 19 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, User:Astrong1/Alan Strong

edit
 

Hello, Astrong1. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Alan Strong".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. DannyS712 (talk) 20:03, 23 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
