Proposed deletion of Roger Groos edit

 

The article Roger Groos has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Proposed deletion of Roger Groos edit

Hello, IngridBetancourt. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Roger Groos, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Roger Groos to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Co-op mentor edit

 

Hi Ingrid! I'm Jethro, a coordinator at The Co-op. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for making your profile. I wanted to introduce you to your mentor, Biblioworm, who should be coming around shortly to get things started. I noticed in your profile that you were interested in topics like natural medicine and Ethnopharmacology. To get started, could let us know a little about what you want to accomplish through mentorship. Was there an article you wanted to improve or an article you wanted to start? I saw you started an article, Roger Groos, that you and your mentor could evaluate together. You can let Biblioworm know by replying below. Thanks! I, JethroBT drop me a line 20:27, 11 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I JethroBT, thank you for helping me around Wikipedia. My main interest is to bring a balanced view on some articles which may seem to be somewhat unbalanced or even bias. All in all it is accurate and real information that I personally am interested in, as I think we all are. Thank you, and I will await my mentor to start to better my understanding of how Wikipedia works. THX --IngridBetancourt (talk) 21:04, 11 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hello! edit

Hello IngridBetancourt! I'm Biblioworm, your Co-op mentor. I see that you have started your first article, Roger Groos. Is there anything you'd like help with? --Biblioworm 21:39, 11 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi Biblioworm, Thank you for taking time to help me out, and thanks for having accepted to by my mentor. --IngridBetancourt (talk) 11:56, 12 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

No problem. Just ping me (like this: {{ping|Biblioworm}}) if you have any questions. --Biblioworm 21:30, 12 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Roger Groos edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Roger Groos 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, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. 2602:302:D89:A9C9:5DFF:2E39:8337:2C8E (talk) 12:23, 12 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

removal of speedy deletion template edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. 2602:302:D89:A9C9:5DFF:2E39:8337:2C8E (talk) 13:00, 12 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

  • You may want to remove the inappropriate templates you've added to the article's talk page. It is the right place to discuss your rationale for keeping the article. Thanks, 2602:302:D89:A9C9:5DFF:2E39:8337:2C8E (talk) 13:00, 12 March 2015 (UTC)Reply


Thank you for the information, the tag I removed and placed it on the talk page. I also submitted the request to stop the deletion of the page. Kind regards --IngridBetancourt (talk) 13:15, 12 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

  • Please don't remove or move the tag elsewhere. Also, this edit [1] was for the moment unnecessary, as the article has not yet been deleted. I'd read the notability guidelines and add any reliable sources that may support the subject's encyclopedic inclusion. Thanks, 2602:302:D89:A9C9:5DFF:2E39:8337:2C8E (talk) 13:19, 12 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, IngridBetancourt, does not meet our username policy.

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below) and continue editing.

A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

  1. Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
  2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
  3. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.
If you think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Diannaa (talk) 02:00, 14 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

The Lady User:Diannaa, who seems to not have nothing else to do wishes to start baptizing people.

I happen to like my name and will not change it, it was given to me and I will keep it. If User:Diannaa has any problem with that than though.

Please grow up.

And stop playing around with petty things.
