A tag has been placed on Nyck Caution, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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 "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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kirk Knight production discography, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Land of the Free. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Subject of mass mailing: Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: August 2017

Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: August 2017


Should the women's football task force become WikiProject: WOSO?

According to an op-ed in the recent Signpost, some editors think task forces and subgroups are dying in 2017.

What do you think about forming our own WikiProject separate from WP:FOOTY? There's an on-going discussion of the potential pros and cons on the task force talk page. Input is welcome.

Recent developments

New initiatives have been created for:

  • FA WSL (England's top-division league)
  • NCAA (American university teams, conferences, etc.)
  • W-League (Australia's top-division league)
Ongoing tournaments
Current and upcoming seasons for top-division leagues
Did you know?

While WP:FPL lists only two women's top-division leagues as notable due to its "fully professional" criteria, did you know you can create an article on any player in any league as long as the references meet WP:GNG guidelines? Make sure to tag the new article talk page with: {{WP Women's sport|footy=yes}}.

Have some new articles in mind or see some that need improvement? Add them to the Open Tasks page if you'd like and other editors may be able to help. Need tips, assistance, or resources from other WOSO editors? Leave a message on the task force talk page.

Thank you for your continued contributions to articles related to women's football / soccer (WOSO)!

Articles moved to draftspace

A series of article(s) that you created, in lieu of payment by different client(s):--

does not meet the guidelines, mentioned at WP:NOPAY, which specifically states:-

You should put new articles through the articles for creation process instead of creating them directly, so they can be peer-reviewed before being published.(My emphasis).

Please move the draft(s) to the mainspace only after being vetted by the AFC workflow.

Also, I have avoided a mass-draftication of all such articles, in lieu of the quality of the produced content but from now onwards, vet all your PAID-Article-Creations through AfC mandatorily.

Thank you! Winged Blades of GodricOn leave 15:06, 17 October 2017 (UTC)

@Godric on Leave: So have you "draftified" said articles because I was paid to create them or because they are "undersourced" as you say in their deletion logs? And if the answer is B, what exactly do you mean by "undersourced"? Because as far as I'm aware there's no exact number of reliable sources for an article to exist on Wikipedia, and the sources I've used in those articles provide significant coverage on their subjects as per WP:GNG. Davykamanzitalkcontribsalter ego 00:37, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
I also don't see the need for them to be moved to the draft space when they were already looked at by other reviewers. Why take this action now when, for example, I created the Tsalta Baptiste article over 18 months ago? Davykamanzitalkcontribsalter ego 01:01, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
The script-written reason is actually misleading:)The reason is the one outlined by me in my above post.Also, passage of time does not matter in these cases.Regards:)Winged Blades of GodricOn leave 05:55, 18 October 2017 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Enigma - Second Chapter sample.ogg

Thank you for uploading File:Enigma - Second Chapter sample.ogg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
