[edit]Hello, Februarycrumbs, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Speedy deletion nomination of Christopher Michael King
[edit]
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Christopher Michael King requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
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 deleted 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.

I've moved the article you created back to the link above. As you can see from the notice above this one, it was tagged for speedy deletion. To be eligible for wikipedia articles, professors need to meet the guidelines at WP:NPROF. Since the professor in question is an asst. prof, it is very unlikely that they will meet these guidelines, sorry. You can move it back to mainspace if you want - but I think it will be deleted if you do. -- asilvering (talk) 03:59, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- I have read through the guidelines and disagree with the opinion that Dr. King is not a notable person, in fact, they confirmed that he is a notable person. No where in the linked WP:NPROF guidelines does it state that someone would be excluded simply because they are an "asst" professor. Additionally, Dr. King is not an assistant professor, he is an associate professor and there is a difference in academic rank between the two. Furthermore, he fits all of the criteria listed in the linked guidelines such as having a significant impact, being respected in academia, serving as a member and the chair of the American Psychological Association, having published scholarly research that has been cited by others, having obtained the highest level of education, being a professor, and having involvement in academic journals. Thank you for providing that link so I could confirm he is a notable person, and I will be contesting the request that this page be subject to speedy deletion.

[edit]
Hello, I'm Synorem. I noticed that in this edit to Christopher Michael King, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Synorem (talk) 05:07, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Christopher Michael King, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you would like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Synorem (talk) 05:15, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Christopher Michael King, you may be blocked from editing. Synorem (talk) 05:22, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, I appreciate the feedback that I should add proper descriptions and I will do so in the future. However, I do not understand how my editing is "disruptive". This is my original article and I am editing back what others have done since I did not think it improved the article. Februarycrumbs (talk) 05:35, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- I will continue to change the edits back to the original text as long as they are being made. I apologize if this is viewed as disruptive, but I do not agree with every edit being made. Februarycrumbs (talk) 05:37, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Please refer to all 3 warnings - you were not explaining your actions, for example with edit summaries. This can be taken as page blanking and therefore disruptive editing. If you are sure that your edits are constructive and for good intent, I urge you to use this for future reference as to avoid coming across as an article vandal. Synorem (talk) 05:58, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- I understand, thank you for that note. Februarycrumbs (talk) 06:00, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Please read WP:OWN. Just because you created the article, you do not have any greater say on its content than anyone else, and if other more experienced editors make changes you should slow down and listen to them and not keep changing things to what you prefer. A number of you edits do not abide by wikiepdia's Manual of Style and yet you keep changing them back, let alone the issues with notability and neutral wording. Melcous (talk) 06:04, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not seeing the difference between what you deem correct and incorrect. It looks like the same article with almost all of the original information removed. Things were certainly removed that added to the value of the article and were not incorrect. However, since every edit I make is quickly changed back, I will leave it to the experienced editors.

@Ian (Wiki Ed) and Emerriwether:, please see the discussion above and edit history of the article Christopher Michael King, a biographical article on a questionable notability person and highly disruptive editing of edit warring against multiple volunteer editors. Graywalls (talk) 18:30, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- I have stopped editing upon receiving feedback from this talk page even though I believe the excessive amount of information removed has diminished the vale of this article. I stated above that I will leave it to the more "experienced editors". I have not made disruptive edits since being informed about this and I will continue to argue that Christopher King fits the WP:NPROF criteria for a notable person.
