Welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as Samuel E.C. Dunlop) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. If you want to test things out, edit the sandbox instead. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

Sources wanted edit
Thank you for your article Samuel E.C. Dunlop. I have added some links. Can you provide sources for some of the specific facts stated in the article. It is, clearly not 'nonsense' but it does need better citations of facts to reliable sources. DES (talk) 23:22, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Samdunlop.JPG edit
Thanks for uploading Image:Samdunlop.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 20:10, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
Notability of Samuel E.C. Dunlop edit
The article Samuel E.C. Dunlop has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.
Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Thank you. KrakatoaKatie 17:39, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
