Speedy deletion nomination of David Vaver
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on David Vaver requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

References
[edit]Could you expand your references when adding them to articles please? It makes them more user friendly than the default type [1]. There's a tool, ProveIt, which makes it pretty easy - just go to your preferences, click on the gadgets tab and check ProveIt to try it out, Thanks. Bazj (talk) 21:09, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
Osgoode Hall Law School faculty
[edit]Hi there. I noticed you added a few pages for faculty members for the school. When creating new articles, it is very helpful if you can also insert relevant categories at the end of the article. I have done this on a few of them for you (see for example: Sharon A. Williams). Best of luck. --Legis (talk - contribs) 10:26, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Osgoode Hall Law School. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Do not create entries for supposedly notable alumni by piping the wikilink to a generic article such as Judge, Politician etc. If the person is notable, create an article for him or her. And don't restore a valid undo of an edit without attempting to discuss the edit first (see WP:BRD}. Meters (talk) 23:15, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Arthur Richard Andrew Scace
[edit]The article Arthur Richard Andrew Scace has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- no indication of notability per WP:GNG
While all constructive 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. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 18:14, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

[edit]Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Osgoode Hall Law School. Your edits have been reverted or removed.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. See the article's talk page. If they people are notable write the articles first, or provide proper wikilinks if they already have articles. And read WP:BRD. You should have taken this to the talk page the first time. Meters (talk) 04:49, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
@ meters: um...you will note that it was I who suggested a neutral 3rd party arbitration some time ago since I could see what was starting to happen. I will ask you to 'please stop your disruptions'.
- And I pointed out that requesting arbitration at that point (predating this edit I am involved in) was inappropriate. The issue must be extensively discussed first. You reverted the edit I am concerned with yet again without discussing it. Your links are completely useless, as has been explained repeatedly. Try actually following them. Please self revert and discuss this. Meters (talk) 16:57, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
the communication tools
[edit]Hello, note that when you use the template {{ping|Username}} it will display as @:Username and leave a notice in the "Your notification", simply writing @Username, does not have the same functionality and the user will not be notified. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 18:56, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
Blocked indefinitely
[edit]Based on a combination of behavioural evidence and checkuser information, I have blocked your account indefinitely. PhilKnight (talk) 20:16, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
Block notice
[edit]This account has been blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not, and that all edits made while evading a block or ban may be reverted or deleted. If this account is not a sock puppet, and you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. PhilKnight (talk) 20:16, 14 October 2014 (UTC) |
Speedy deletion nomination of Giuseppina d'Agostino
[edit]Hello Alcoxnow,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Giuseppina d'Agostino for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. JamKaftan (talk) 18:24, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
