Deletion review for Marriage Privatization

I can't see any deletion review for this. Was there one? I suggest you ask at WP:ANI for an admin to give you access to the content so you can copy it to a sub-page of you User page and work on it there. I can't help with that as I'm not an admin, a job i really don't want. --Philcha (talk) 16:15, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi Philca, Thanks for your response. I somehow just assumed you were an administrator. No, there was no review for this article and I am not getting any sense that anyone has actually read the second article. This is why the process is frustrating me so much! Thank you for your advice. I will investigate that option. I am still learning how Wikipedia works. Best, Hermesmessage (talk) 16:46, 28 November 2008 (UTC)Hermesmessage

(e/c)Since I did not see the second article at all, and I dont have access to see what the page looked like either, I think Philoha's advice (which is also given by Suntag at the deletion review) would be the only help that I can offer. When the page gets recreated in your user space, if you would like some commenatary before you move it to actual article space, drop me a note. -- The Red Pen of Doom 16:49, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, Much! I have been assuming that administrators have access to deleted articles. I have been very frustrated because it seems to me as if no one has actually read the second article. If administrative reviewers don't generally have access to deleted articles then it explains a lot to me! Still, isn't an article supposed to be marked as an afd or for speedy deletion before it is actually deleted? I will look into doing what Philca, Suntag, and yourself are suggesting I do. I will of course ask you to share your feedback once I have done so. Thanks! Hermesmessage (talk) 17:00, 28 November 2008 (UTC)Hermesmessage

User:Hermesmessage/Marriage Privatization

The User:Hermesmessage/Marriage Privatization article looks good. You might find more information for the article at Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL. Also, for the inline cites, try to use cite templates, such as those provided at User:Suntag/Cite. The templates provide format consistency and automatically will keep up with the lates changes in citation techniques. My Nassak Diamond article is a good example of how to use the templates to cite to different pages in the same book (actually, it was case law, but essentially the same idea). The actual method is described at Wikipedia:Citing_sources#Shortened footnotes. -- Suntag ☼ 18:18, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Marriage privatization, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Bob A (talk) 05:37, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
