Thanks! edit

Thanks for making Lethon Flowers and categorizing him in Category:Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets football players. I've been working on List of Georgia Institute of Technology alumni, and there are a whole slew of NFL players without articles, so I noticed your efforts when another one popped into the GT football players category :) —Disavian (talk/contribs) 16:16, 18 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Brandon Whiting edit

 

A tag has been placed on Brandon Whiting requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, 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, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

My apologies, but next time try to be sure to have good context on the page before submitting it for the first time, or else users like myself will come along and do what I did. Sorry again. Happy editing! --Evan Seeds (talk)(contrib.) 18:09, 12 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
