New Page Patrol

Hi. Thank you for your interest in maintaining the quality of Wikipedia articles. However, with only 200 edits to mainspace you most probably do not yet have sufficient experience to be involving yourself in deletion issues. With 200 edits you just qualify to enroll at the WP:CVUA where you can begin learning about one of our less complex maintenance tasks. Afte qualifying, and a further few thousand edits you would then be sufficiently well versed in policies and guidelines to take on other tasks. If you need any help don't hesitate to ask me on my talj page. Happy eiting! --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 20:15, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Nomination of Kloodle for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Kloodle is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kloodle until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Greetings! Thanks for downloading and trying out the STiki tool. Unfortunately, your first use came at a time when STiki was experiencing some technical difficulties, so your test-drive probably wasn't as positive as the STiki community would have liked. Because of edit ingestion problems you probably experienced an usually low "hit rate" (the percentage of edits a user sees that they revert). Typically these numbers hover in the 20-33% range, so I encourage you to come back and give us another try. Thanks, West.andrew.g (talk) 16:57, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
