Your article Martin Snigg has been removed, as it contains no indication of why he might be notable, and no references to show that what is said there is true. If he really is notable please provide references. DJ Clayworth 16:22, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Please provide an edit summary

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

It is not useful to say 'this is very significant'. To demonstrate that an article belongs in Wikipedia you have to provide references to back up what is written. Usually this will be a web link to a reputable academic or news organisation which demonstrates that the person written about is notable, and that what is written is true. Without that any articles will simply be deleted. DJ Clayworth 16:44, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Do not recreate Martin Snigg

You have recently created the article Martin Snigg. This was deleted in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policies.

Breaking the rules

It is one of the rules of Wikipedia that articles not supported by references should be deleted. Your article about Martin Sniggs gives indication of why he is famous, or any references to back it up. If you continue to recreate this article you will be treated as a vandal, and may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. If you provide references then the article can stay. If not it will be removed.

You may either enter the tag {{hangon}} below the pink {{db-recreated}} tag, or follow the Wikipedia:Deletion review. Don't question the abilities or intelligence of other editors when your article has no sourcing or other assertion to real notability. - CobaltBlueTony 17:11, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

If you recreate this article again you will be blocked from editing. DJ Clayworth 17:13, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
