Anthony Green

edit

This edit of yours destroyed a disambiguation page. Here is the final version of your page on the footballer; if you think it's worthwhile, then:

1. Click this, copy the content of the text editing box to your clipboard; then press either the "cancel" link near the foot of the page or the back button of your browser.

2. Click on one or other of these two redlinks:

3. Paste the text to that new article, and save it.

4. Edit Anthony Green to create a link to your new article.

I hope this helps. -- Hoary 08:23, 19 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Formatting

edit

The pages you added, such as Sandy Higgins need to be formated according to the Manual of Style and they also need a category to help other people find the information. If you are not familiar with doing these things yourself, please can you add the {{wikify}} and {{uncat}} tags to the article, as I have done to Sandy Higgins, so that they will be noticed by another editor. Thanks, Rich257 13:38, 19 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Signatures

edit

Hi Mick, I just wanted to let you know that it's only necessary to sign posts to talk pages. We don't sign articles as no one "owns" a wikipedia article per se. For more info, see WP:SIG#When_signatures_should_be_used. Cheers!--Kchase T 15:49, 20 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Alan suddick

edit

Hi, someone has suggested that the article you started on Alan Suddick be deleted. Here is the discussion: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alan suddick. You might like to add your views. You might also like to consult the guidelines for people's notability, here: WP:BIO, but as you will see, Suddick clearly meets the criterion for inclusion. I've voted to keep the article because of that. One last point, people's names should be capitalised, so the article should be at Alan Suddick not Alan suddick (Wikipedia uses case-sensitive names). Leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions. Cheers, Squiddy | (squirt ink?) 16:30, 21 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

The deletion debate has closed - the person who suggested deletion made a mistake, and has withdrawn. It has been moved to Alan Suddick. Squiddy | (squirt ink?) 17:15, 21 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Mickey Burns

edit

I just added an infobox to Burns' article and noticed that you started the article. Does the book you sourced the information from mention the years he played for Chorley and Preston? - Dudesleeper · Talk 22:40, 17 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

I just realised the Blackpool book I have has a section on him (but also doesn't mention Chorley or Preston), so I'll add the tidbits from that later. Also, the abbreviated version of his first name is Mickey, not Micky, so I moved the article accordingly. - Dudesleeper · Talk 15:00, 18 February 2007 (UTC)Reply


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Petermcwilliam.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Petermcwilliam.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 20:04, 26 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Notification of automated file description generation

edit

Your upload of File:Billappleyardnufc.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Proposed deletion of File:Anthonygreen1.jpg

edit
 

The file File:Anthonygreen1.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unused, low-res, no obvious use

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 files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

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

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:01, 1 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Paul Sweeney

edit
 

Hello, Mick4839. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Paul Sweeney".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! JMHamo (talk) 12:25, 25 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
