Tenkara fishing

Well done, that is a nice article on Tenkara fishing you started. Do you think you can find more references, in English if possible? And do you think it would be possible to get a copyright waiver on that great old picture from Kanazawa showing people fishing for ayu? --Geronimo20 (talk) 01:25, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

However you are getting a bit carried away with some of your other edits. I have reverted the additions you made to angling because 1) the material you added on fly fishing was a copy violation (copied from elsewhere). 2) angling is a summary article which does not attempt to list all the types of angling. If you look at the navigation panel at the top right of the article, you will see it lists a large range of types of angling, far beyond just fly fishing.

Speedy deletion nomination of Tenkara USA

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

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

A tag has been placed on Tenkara USA 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 an organization or company, 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 organizations and companies. 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 {{hang on}} 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 hang-on 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:07, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
