Speedy deletion nomination of Houstonia pusilla

Latest comment: 14 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

A tag has been placed on Houstonia pusilla requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. 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. You may 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 {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

The CSD tag has now been removed. The article is a stub that still need some references and work. Also, please do not sign articles. Your contributions are already marked in the history page. Signature are only used on talk page and other spaces, but never in the main (article) space. Have a good day! --Stroppolo^talk 00:37, 23 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Sorry,I`m a newbie and didn`t know any better. I will not do that again. I have tried to fix any errors. I`m unsure why the pictures show blank when I show preview. gardener2005 00:46, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Stroppolo and the other editors who worked on the Houstonia pusilla page. I want to help here but can see maybe I had better study and prepare more before I begin. That was probably the quickest on the spot description of a plant I have ever written. Thanks for being patient with me and helping get me going in the right direction. Next time,I hope to improve and find more places where my edits are useful. gardener2005 22:45, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
