Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on History of Information Technology in Libraries requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

The article Ten Key Developments in Information Technology has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Original research, and a possible speedy deletion candidate under A10.
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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 07:28, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
Notability guidelines
[edit]Hi, I'm writing on your talk page because I've noticed that you have uploaded what looks to be several personal papers to Wikipedia. Please be aware that the content given looks to be original research on your part and resembles a student essay or project. This doesn't mean that your work is "bad" per se, but it doesn't fit the guidelines for what Wikipedia will include in the mainspace. Please be aware that while we do try to be as inclusive as possible here, we are not a repository for student papers or anything of that nature. (WP:NOT) If you are doing this as part of a student project (by this I mean that your professor asked you to contribute to Wikipedia), I would highly recommend that he gets in contact with Wikipedia:School and university projects. This way he or she can become acquainted with the other educators in the project as well as brush up on what Wikipedia requires for its pages. If you uploaded by yourself (meaning no professor told you to do this), be aware that uploading your student papers onto Wikipedia can be seen as a form of self-promotion. I would recommend against re-uploading any of the papers or continuing to upload anything of this nature, as this could lead to you being blocked from Wikipedia editing.Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:31, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

Status and Advice
[edit]As one of the admins here, with a long outside career as a library and teacher in a library school, let me give you some advice. We need more librarians and library school students here; there are a few dozen of us (see WP:Wikiproject Libraries )and a great deal of work to be done. That wikiproject page has a list of needed articles, and articles that need improvement; although we do have articles of most basic concepts, as a first approximation, any article on librarianship and information science is very much in need of improvement, and there are hundreds of notable librarians who do not have articles. But they have to be written as Wikipedia articles, as organized summaries of published knowledge in prose form, not outlines, based on references providing substantial coverage from 3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online. We avoid giving our own opinions, or synthesizing material as in original research -- this is exactly the opposite of what is required in college papers. (See WP:FIRST for a further explanation. My advice to people coming here, is to start by adding references to existing articles, and then go on to adding sections to existing articles, before beginning to write new ones. If I can help you further, ask me at my talk page. DGG ( talk ) 01:25, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
