Gosh! You're killing me!


The article Nolan Trapp has been or soon will be deleted from Wikipedia. This happened because the article seems to be about a subject but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles.

Welcome to Wikipedia!

edit

Hey there, Mother Teresea, and welcome to our great encyclopedia, which currently has more than 6,840,171 articles! Even with this large number, all of your contributions are important (including the small ones), and I hope you like the place and decide to stay! Here's a few starting tips for you:

After reading all this (or even just glimpsing at it), I can understand that you might feel apprehensive about editing and contributing articles, for fear of making a mistake. But don't worry too much about mistakes; after all, you're new. Instead, everyone here encourages you to be bold! If you need help with anything, feel free to leave me a message, or you can put {{helpme}} on your talk page, and someone will show up shortly to give you a hand.

One last thing: when leaving a message on someone's talk page, don't forget to put four "tildes" (~~~~) to automatically sign your name.


Happy Editing! -- P.B. Pilhet / Talk 18:15, 19 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

I didn't delete it, but based on what I could see it was an article about an unremarkable teenager. This is not myspace. It is an encyclopedia. We document notable people, leaders of government, industry, notable actors, authors, scientist. Please see our Notability Guidelines. -- Fan-1967 18:16, 19 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for Image:Nolantrap.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Nolantrap.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 19:07, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Don't make things up

I never said he has no value in the world. I said he doesn't meet Wikipedia's Notability Standards. He's a high school student who plays football. There are about a million of them. They don't belong here.

Wikipedia is not a bulletin board for you to write about your boyfriend. Fan-1967 20:23, 19 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Dennis Trapp

edit

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Dennis Trapp, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Dennis Trapp. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.
