Speedy deletion nomination of Kokomaht 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 Kokomaht 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 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. Pishcal 21:23, 22 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Ololin edit

 

The article Ololin has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No sources verify that the Yoruba people workshipped a deity of this name. Olokun is cited as "Owner of the Ocean" in this source, while no source can be found that even mentions the name Ololin or Ol-olin in connection with the Yoruba.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

Sources edit

You have created a number of articles on rather obscure deities of various religions and mythologies, but we need reliable sources to verify this information. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 21:33, 22 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Your contributed article, Ololin 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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Ololin. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Olokun. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Olokun – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Everymorning talk 22:12, 22 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Articles edit

You're creating a number of short articles that don't conform to Wikipedia's guidelines, any may be removed at any time. Please, read Your first article for guidance on how to create articles that won't be removed. You also may want to consider using the Article Wizard, where you can request feedback, to help you create articles. Pishcal 22:52, 22 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Let me reiterate what Pishcal has told you: single sentence articles with no sources are really not the stuff of Wikipedia. Your article on Muškuśku is not even at stub level, and may likely be deleted. You have been informed of this problem before, and you have not changed your editing. This in itself can be seen as a form of vandalism, and might get you blocked. Please take the time to provide more complete information. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:38, 23 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

  • This wasn't a hoax, but this topic is already discussed at Mušḫuššu. Mastermarketerguy, you should contribute to that page instead. Everymorning talk 17:49, 23 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
