WikiProject College Football edit

I've noticed your interest in college football, particularly Nebraska and would like to invite you to join the Wikipedia:WikiProject College football where you'll find many like-minded people looking expand coverage of the sport here on Wikipedia. You'll also find guidelines and formats that members of the project have developed and reached some consensus on that should be used to provide consistency in college football articles. Particularly you may find the Yearly team pages format helpful for the Cornhuskers 2007 season article you have worked on. I hope you join and participate in the project. Good luck.

Daniel Bruce edit

A tag has been placed on Daniel Bruce, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under 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.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Daniel Bruce may actually be notable enough to warrant an article, but I don't know enough about him to determine that. Metropolitan90 03:53, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself, as you did with Daniel Bruce.

New Nebraska categories edit

Per WP:MOS, the categories you created should renamed for the positions aren't capitalized (as with Category:American football defensive tackles). Therefore, for example, one category should be Category:Nebraska Cornhuskers offensive guards. Then, you should make all of these subcategories of Category:Nebraska Cornhuskers football players, not of Category:Nebraska Cornhuskers football. You can then put the unpopulated categories up for deletion at WP:CFD. Pats1 00:59, 8 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Brett Jensen edit

A tag has been placed on Brett Jensen, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Clamster 01:28, 17 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

2007 Nebraska football pages edit

Hi, I've noticed you've done some significant work on getting this year's Nebraska team page up. If you want good examples for how to design and add to these pages, both USC and Texas Wikipedians have done good jobs on individual team pages. Examples at 2007 Texas Longhorn football team (their 2005 team page reached GA status) and 2007 USC Trojans football team (mostly my work). If I can offer advice, let me know. --Bobak 20:48, 20 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Johnny Dorn edit

 

A tag has been placed on Johnny Dorn requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

  When adding links to material on an external site, please ensure that the external site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright.

License tagging for File:SDC11566.tif edit

Thanks for uploading File:SDC11566.tif. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 00:06, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Thad Weber edit

 

The article Thad Weber has been proposed for deletion. The proposed-deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all 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.--Baseball Watcher 01:35, 25 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Will Bolt edit

 

The article Will Bolt has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.
