Proposed deletion of Musgrave Retailer Services

The article Musgrave Retailer Services has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:14, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

@Piotrus: I agree. Speedy delete.~ Ablaze (talk) 13:54, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Örebro Black Knights moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Örebro Black Knights, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

@Path slopu: I've added independent sources now. You might want to move the other 4 Swedish American Football teams to their own draft page, because they don't have enough sources or citations as written to remain published either. Thanks for your work! Category:American football teams in Sweden~ Ablaze (talk) 07:17, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Infobox

Hello Darranc. The official site, https://www.gov.ie/en/news/7e0924-latest-updates-on-covid-19-coronavirus/, is not appearing - at least on my end and perhaps for other readers also. Would the formatting of the Statistics section possibly contribute to this? Please help. Ear-phone (talk) 16:10, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

@Ear-phone: Good catch, it seems to be working now? ~ Ablaze (talk) 06:02, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

@Darranc: Yeah, it's working now. The page however doesn't render well on mobile, at least on mine. Cases table, etc. are cut off. Ear-phone (talk) 09:20, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

@Ear-phone: I think you fixed it! Good stuff! ~ Ablaze (talk) 13:38, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Ta. I think it was @Rchard2scout: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2020_coronavirus_outbreak_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland&oldid=945034451. Meanwhile, updated the map to include Meath, but it's not appearing in the infobox https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:COVID-19_Outbreak_Cases_in_Ireland.svg Ear-phone (talk) 13:43, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

@Ear-phone: That's just a caching issue. Ctrl+F5 or Purge the page.~ Ablaze (talk) 14:38, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

@Darranc: - perhaps an additional map of cases per unit population (county)? Ear-phone (talk) 23:32, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

@Ear-phone: Go for it, but is that information available? ~ Ablaze (talk) 05:58, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

@Darranc: County population, denominator, may be available from Central Statistics Office (Ireland) Ear-phone (talk) 14:17, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
