Hi. I have "moved" this article (changed its title) from "Electrfluid Display Technology" which I presume was a misprint. If you ever find you have input an article with the wrong title, the "Move" tab at the top of the page lets you change it. The "old" article is left as a redirect to the new one; if it might be a useful search term you can just leave it, but if not, as in this case, putting {{db-r3}} at the top (two curly brackets each side) will get it deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Susanna Maiolo
[edit]You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
Thank you.
A tag has been placed on Susanna Maiolo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 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. --Zvn (talk) 17:49, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
Articles for deletion nomination of Susanna Maiolo
[edit]I have nominated Susanna Maiolo, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Susanna Maiolo. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. --Zvn (talk) 07:15, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
Mother Teresa
[edit]Since Mother Teresa is a widely known person, I would highly recommend that you WP:CITE sources when making changes to the article to prevent edit warring. That way it is easy for editors and readers know that the article has been improved in a factual manner. — MrDolomite • Talk 04:38, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
- I changed it again and cited a good source (CBS) and it still got reverted. Please help me understand why. Thanks so much for your time. Bluetd (talk) 14:59, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hmm, I'm not an expert, but adding the CBS link [1] was a move in the right direction. My guess would be that the article itself never specifically mentions the phrase "Mother Teresa was an athiest". Instead, it says that she had what could be termed a crisis of faith or questioning of religion. Rather than using that reference to change things in the infobox in the introduction section, it is probably more appropriate for it to be included later in the article where it can be more fully explained. — MrDolomite • Talk 05:11, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
