Response to request for help

edit

Okay, now let me respond to the message you left me on my talk page.

I moved the article in question from "Ravi shukla" to "Ravi Shukla". This was done per guidelines at the Wikipedia Manual of Style. There are several reference points you can use when it comes to writing a good, or at least a decent article. The five bulleted links included in the cookie-cutter welcome message I placed at the top of this talk page should give you a good start. My big recommendation based on what I've seen from your edits is to use the "Show preview" button immediately to the right of the "Save page" button so you can see what the page looks like before it gets saved.

Specific to this case, I recommend looking at the Wikipedia articles on participants of other similar talent reality shows, such as the many international Idol shows, or Star Voice of India.

Finally, you have not been barred from editing the article. I do not have the authority to do that. But I ask that until you become comfortable with all the weird nuances of Wikipedia, you use the content that I placed into your user space (see above) for experimentation, and then copy/paste into the article itself when you're satisfied.

Speedy deletion nomination of Dr. Mike Van Thielen

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Dr. Mike Van Thielen, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.
