The article HIV/AIDS in South America has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- This list states that its source is another Wikipedia list. WP is not a WP:RS, and the article in question is particularly questionable. No need for this list - the template at the bottom does the job fine.
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. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. PamD (talk) 09:26, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you for your note. I created the articles and put the "stub" notations on them to note they really needed to be expanded, to make similar summaries as HIV/AIDS in Asia, HIV/AIDS in Europe, and HIV/AIDS in Africa. I am planning on expanding them but I hope others will help too. So I'm going to go ahead and remove the deletion tags as you wrote, and put this note in the talk pages.

Thanks for your work with the HIV articles
[edit]I saw that you ambitiously started a lot of HIV statistical work in January 2011, then seem to have left Wikipedia. I appreciate what you started. Let me know if you need any help working on Wikipedia. Blue Rasberry (talk) 10:59, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
