Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Anna Markland article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Robert Markham

A tag has been placed on Robert Markham, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out 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. Cheers, Blastolite 17:55, 12 December 2006 (UTC) Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.[reply]

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:13, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The same applies to the article James Wilshire. Please do not paste copyrighted material from websites or other sources into Wikipedia. FreplySpang 14:26, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome

Hi again, I notice you've created quite a few articles on British musicians. Thank you! Some of the articles will require a bit of cleanup to meet our standards and Wikipedia conventions though. I've started on two of them. Perhaps you could look at what I did here [1] and [2] to see what I mean. It's important that articles should be worded in a neutral, non-advertising style, that they should establish in a neutral, matter-of-fact way why a person is notable, and that they have references to reliable sources. Wikipedia:How to write a great article will give you some further help. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:59, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your pianist articles

Please see WP:MUSIC. Most of these pianist articles you are creating make no claims of notability, or else they have limited notability which doesn't meet our guidelines. User:Zoe|(talk) 00:34, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Very short articles with no context

Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Articles that provide little or no context for the reader, and articles that do not indicate why their subjects are notable, are subject to swift deletion. FreplySpang 17:54, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop creating one-sentence mini-articles. They are not useful to our readers. Why not take some time to focus on just one of these people and write a longer article (in your own words)? FreplySpang 18:04, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, please stop with the "mini articles". Take some time to read Wikipedia:Introduction and the Wikipedia:Manual of Style, then edit according to the reccomendations there. Thanks! -- Infrogmation 18:16, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm one of the "idiots" who keeps deleting your articles. As I pointed out to you before, please review WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC and WP:RS. If you show in the articles that these people meet these criteria, then please rewrite them so that they do. You need sources, reliable sources as defined in WP:RS. User:Zoe|(talk) 18:24, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

One-sentence articles aren't useful to anyone, and we have found that they are unlikely to grow. Your original articles were copied from other websites. Facts are facts, but words can be copyrighted. We can't legally accept articles like that. If you take the time to write an article in your own words, not just copying it from someplace else, that shows why your subject is significant, it has an excellent chance of staying around and growing. It's important to show why, for instance, Sophie Yates is considered one of the world's leading harpsichordists. You probably know more about that than most people here. Who considers her to be a leading harpsichordist? Can you cite reviews or articles saying so? Many of the messages above have helpful suggestions for guidance on writing articles. I'll add one more link: our guide to your first article might be a good starting point. FreplySpang 18:27, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your nn bios

Last warning. Provide reliable sources for your claims, or not only will the articles which you keep recreating be deleted, you will be blocked from editing. User:Zoe|(talk) 23:26, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: I am a reliable source

I noticed some of your recent comments on talk pages and I wanted to point a policy you should be familiar to understand why administrators take certain actions.

Please read Wikipedia:No original research at your convenience, and I believe that will be helpful. Please let me know your thoughts. // Laughing Man 04:18, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop blanking your talk page

Hello, Dude. It's considered uncivil to blank your talk page. Wikipedia is a collaborative project, and civility and cooperation benefit everyone. Work with your fellow editors and you'll see that this is a pretty interesting place. Thanks for understanding. A Train ^{take the} 14:00, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No one is telling this user what he should be doing instead of warnings, it would be more helpful if others pointed him the right direction instead.

Dudedontworry, it seems you are trying to delete the pages you have created (Leon McCawley, Stephen Coombs, Anna Markland, Heather Slade-Lipkin). You should review deletion policy at Wikipedia, but I believe the articles you are blanking are candidates for speedy deletion. Simply add the following text: {{db-author}} to the article page instead of blanking the pages, and they should be removed. // Laughing Man 16:07, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You are not a reliable source

Please see WP:RS, which has been pointed out to you numerous times. First person knowledge is not a reliable source. User:Zoe|(talk) 16:12, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I wish to deregister from Wikipedia as it is a futile place and suggest you delete all articles that I contributed and also my user account

Dudedontworry 16:25, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages or sections with blank content. It is considered vandalism. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. Hu12 16:57, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your wish to deregister

We do not de-register accounts here, the closest we could do would be to block your account from future editing(at your request to avoid future misuse) and lock your talk page from future changes. Beyond that the only way to de-activate your account is to just stop using it. We cannot remove it as we keep records of where every contribution came from.

If you would like this just ask here and it will be done. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 17:07, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Dudedontworry! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 97 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Leon McCawley - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Heather Slade-Lipkin - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
