Your contributed article, Peace Campaign On Iraq War

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Peace Campaign On Iraq War. 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 - Iraq War. 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 to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Iraq War - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. 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. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 22:14, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Moved from New Contributors' Questions Page

Hello, I'm having problems on understanding the Wiki's guidelines. I've just created this article for a school project. And I don't know why it is a duplication of another page: Iraq war. Please help me , thanks!!Shishistaion (talk) 09:26, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
- I've moved your question (and the helpme tag) here, because that is where the relevant information is. - David Biddulph (talk) 09:57, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
- Your articles have been deleted because we already have an article Iraq war which covers the same ground in more detail. It is confusing to readers of an encyclopedia if there are several articles about the same subject.
- While all contributors are welcome, articles done for school projects are subject to the same rules as others. You need to find a new subject, not already covered. There is good advice for new contributors at WP:Your first article, which is worth reading carefully.
- If your school project was organised by a teacher, please ask him or her to read these guidelines:

Speedy deletion nomination of Peacebuilding Campaign

A tag has been placed on Peacebuilding Campaign requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of 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. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. NtheP (talk) 22:37, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
