Speedy deletion nomination of Become a World Explorer

edit
 

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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. --ZhongHan (Email) 14:10, 25 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Gabrielle Bradshaw

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Gabrielle Bradshaw 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 person or group of people, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

Proposed deletion of Become a World Explorer

edit
 

The article Become a World Explorer has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not a notable game.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

A tag has been placed on The Weakest Link Episode Guide requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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.

Important Note

edit

Hello, David.denman. I noticed that you have re-introduced content which was clearly copied from http://theweakestlinkcontestants.blogspot.com/ onto your user page. Please know that this is still a copy violation and it must be removed immediately. Please do so. Additionally, I also notice that your user page has very little to do with Wikipedia. You should know that Wikipedia (even the non-article user space) is not intended to serve as your personal of blog or MySpace type page. Please review WP:NOTMYSPACE and WP:USERPAGE and modify your user page accordingly. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to drop them onto my talk page. Alternatively, you may use the help me template. Note that if you do not clean your user page, it may be deleted. Cheers.    Thorncrag   00:19, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Gabrielle Bradshaw

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on Gabrielle Bradshaw requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. jsfouche (talk) 22:26, 26 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Repost of Gabrielle Bradshaw

edit

  A tag has been placed on Gabrielle Bradshaw requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, place the template {{hang on}} underneath the other template on the article and put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this article should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use deletion review instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you. jsfouche (talk) 22:29, 26 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Final warning

edit

Further creations of inappropriate pages, introduction of copyrighted material into your userspace, or edits such as this ("Hello! I'm User:86.178.68.52 and I like to vandalize pages and laugh about it!") will lead to a block on your account. Cunard (talk) 05:31, 27 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Adding false info and then removing it.

edit

Hi. Could you explain why all your recent edits consist of adding false information, and then shortly after removing it? I'm unclear what you are doing, but pretty certain it is disruptive and could be regarded as vandalism. Please stop it. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 23:34, 18 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
