Speedy deletion nomination of Qualeaceans

edit

Hello Jeremy9901,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Qualeaceans for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Advice on creating articles

edit

I'm afraid that all of the articles you have created have been deleted. It must be very disheartening to come to Wikipedia, probably full of enthusiasm for contributing, put a significant amount of work into creating several articles, and just see all that work deleted, so I am writing to try to help you understand why that has happened, and to offer some advice on how to avoid the same thing happening again.

  1. The first thing to understand is that Wikipedia is not a collection of information on just anything, and subjects of articles are required to satisfy notability guidelines. Unfortunately, in my opinion there are too many of these guidelines on Wikipedia, and most of them are far to long and complicated, making it very difficult for a new editor to learn what is considered acceptable and what isn't. I think Wikipedia would be improved if these guidelines were cut down to about ten percent of their current extent. However, the single most important thing to be aware of is the general notability guideline, the essential point of which is that a topic is notable enough for inclusion if it has been the subject of substantial coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Sources such as someone's own web site or the web site of a company that publishes their work are of no use, as they are not independent sources; mere inclusion in a list or a brief mention in a couple of sentences or so are not substantial coverage; sources such as blogs, YouTube, Wikipedia, Facebook, are not reliable sources, as anyone can post anything there. Also relevant to the kind of articles you have created is Wikipedia:Notability (music).
  2. I searched for information on the subjects you wrote about, to see whether I could find justification for keeping the articles. Nothing I could find about Potmos Hetoimos suggested that he satisfies Wikipedia's notability guidelines, and "Proclaim Thy Judgement" had virtually no coverage anywhere, with the one mention I found not being independent. As for Qualeaceans, the article you wrote actually stated that there was almost no information about them, in effect telling us that they do not satisfy Wikipedia's notability guidelines.
  3. My advice to new editors is that it is best to start by making small improvements to existing articles, rather than creating new articles. That way any mistakes you make will be small ones, and you won't have the discouraging experience of repeatedly seeing hours of work deleted. Gradually, you will get to learn how Wikipedia works, and after a while you will know enough about what is acceptable to be able to write whole new articles without fear that they will be deleted. Over the years I have found that editors who start by making small changes to existing articles and work up from there have a far better chance of having a successful time here than those who jump right into creating new articles from the start.

I hope these remarks may be of some help to you, and I hope you will take note of them and be able to continue editing without seeing the same sort of rapid deletion of your work again. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 09:13, 22 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • I very strongly urge you to take note of the advice I gave you above about creating new articles. If you continue to create unsuitable articles, not only will they be deleted so that you will have wasted your time and effort, but you will also be blocked from editing to prevent you from also wasting the time of other editors.

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. If you need guidance on how to create appropriate pages, try using the Article Wizard. When an article is the subject of a deletion discussion which looks as though it will end in deletion, creating a copy of the article under a different title is bound to give the impression that it is an attempt to evade the outcome of that discussion. Adding that to the fact that, despite numerous messages from experienced editors, you continue to create articles which stand no chance of survival because they do not satisfy Wikipedia's notability standards, we are approaching the point where you are likely to be blocked because your activity here causes more loss than gain to the project. In order to avoid being blocked from editing please take the advice I gave you above to refrain from creating articles until you have enough experience of editing to have a better idea of what is considered suitable.

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you create an inappropriate page, as you did at Hate Ashbury (album). You just created articles on four non-notable albums by Bongripper. All four pages have been turned into redirects back to the artist because they fail WP:NALBUM. I strongly suggest that you do not create any more articles until you have read the notability guidelines and are sure the subject is notable. If you need assistance, please ask for help here on your talk page.C.Fred (talk) 02:44, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Soma (Windhand album). It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to being blocked from editing. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Robvanvee 07:43, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Phyllomedusa (project)

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 Phyllomedusa (project) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://brutalcarnage.net/cgi-bin/board/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=22;t=7826. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "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. reddogsix (talk) 17:59, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for persistently creating inappropriate pages. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  —C.Fred (talk) 23:52, 28 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
 

The article 260: lcm(2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61,67,71,73,79,83) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Incomprehensible as written. It can't really be that long. The number appears to be the product of all of the prime numbers less than 89. No references. If this was some sort of weird humor by the performers, the article should so state, but only if the piece is notable.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

  • You were blocked for creating inappropriate pages. Back from your block, you just created three bad pages in a row. Do not create any more articles about albums or songs at this time. Once you've gained experience—like, in a few months—maybe you'll be ready to create pages. At this point, however, you do not appear to understand the new article guidelines, so it is best if you refrain.
Please voluntarily refrain from creating new articles. Otherwise, it will be necessary to block your account again to prevent further disruption. —C.Fred (talk) 14:33, 8 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
