Speedy deletion nomination of Will Fantle

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Will Fantle 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 a person or group of people, 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 biographies. 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 {{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.

  Your addition has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 18:57, 15 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Articles for deletion nomination of Aurora Organic Dairy

edit

I have nominated Aurora Organic Dairy, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aurora Organic Dairy. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 19:16, 15 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Potential conflict of interest

edit

Hi Gardenerlynn. I have noticed that all your contributions today have involved adding links to cornucopia.org or referencing this organization. If you are associated with this organization, you may want to familiarize yourself with Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy. Also, I would encourage you to have a look at the guidelines for neutral point of view, reliable sources, and external links. Thank you. Deli nk (talk) 20:08, 15 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Cornucopia Institute

A tag has been placed on Cornucopia Institute 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.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon 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.

  Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 16:31, 29 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Cornucopia Institute

edit

An organization is not necessarily entitled to a Wikipedia article just because it exists; you need to be able to provide actual references from reliable sources to demonstrate that the organization is notable enough to be here.

You're certainly free to work on an improved version of the article if you wish — although I'd suggest that you do it at User:Gardenerlynn/Cornucopia Institute, and then it can be moved into article space when you're done. But good sources have to be present in the article the moment it enters article space, or else it can and will likely be deleted again. Having a Wikipedia article is not an entitlement if the article, as written, doesn't meet our inclusion and formatting and referencing standards. Bearcat (talk) 19:30, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
