A tag has been placed on Gay Love Spells, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. If you plan to add more material to the article, I advise you to do so immediately. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Kinu t/c 04:45, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. --Kinu t/c 05:16, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
RE: Hi...I'm new here!
editSure I would be happy to help. I overlooked your contributions and would suggest that you take a look at some of the cont policy pages or How to edit a page. Try to avoid adding things that are original research and as far as your new page contributions, make sure that you are not duplicating articles which already exists as you did with Magical powers and Mortals (which were soon redirected to the appropriate articles). In response to your Help Desk question on how to "protect" a page from editing, regular contributors cannot protect pages on Wikipedia, only Administrators can. They are only protected in special cases, such as heavy vandalism or edit wars. If you have any other questions regarding editing Wikipedia feel free to leave another message.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 06:48, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Banshee article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."
You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. --Kinu t/c 19:39, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
