January 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Dbkilo (talk)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Dbkilo (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:54, 24 January 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Your edits to Edgewater, Colorado removed basic demographic information that was sourced to the US Census Bureau and replaced it with comparative information sourced to a commercial "best places" website. The information you added likely is valid, but commercial websites such as bestplaces are not the best sources, the information you added lacked appropriate context, and the deletion of valid sourced information is not appreciated. Wikipedia presents the standardized demographic information for all U.S. populated places, and goes to the Census Bureau for information. Please do not remove valid sourced information unless you provide an exceptionally good reason for doing so, and be mindful of Wikipedia policy on verifiability and reliable sources when you add content.

In addition, please note that commentary (like "All of the above corrections are valid statements with valid sources. Check the references if you do not believe they are. Thank You.") does not belong in articles. If you wish to comment on article development, use the Talk page associated with the article. Thank you. --Orlady (talk) 19:02, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of The Untouchables (Denver Gang)

A tag has been placed on The Untouchables (Denver Gang) 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 about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Brown and Proud (Denver Gang), a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. ttonyb (talk) 01:46, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Black Hole Posse

A tag has been placed on Black Hole Posse 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 person or group of people, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Edgewater, Colorado. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Orlady (talk) 21:20, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did to Edgewater, Colorado, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Tripatlas.com is not a reliable source.

October 2010

I haven't checked all of your recent edits to Denver neighborhoods, but the ones I've checked reported demographic statistics that don't match what the cited source says. I don't enjoy following you around, checking your work, and deleting it for being erroneous. I'm sure you don't enjoy that either. Accordingly, please get the numbers right before you add them to articles. Note that the numbers reported for "youth" represent only school children, not the whole population. --Orlady (talk) 05:11, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is your final warning. I have deleted the article North Denver (region), which you created recently. I deleted it under ‎speedy deletion criterion G4: Recreation of a page that was deleted per a deletion discussion. It was a recreation of North Denver, Colorado, which was deleted as a result of discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/South West Side (Denver). Your re-creation of an article deleted after community discussion adds to a pattern of disruptive editing, which also includes your repeated addition of invalid statistics to articles and your extensive use of anonymous IPs such as 71.208.40.180 and 71.218.132.204 to avoid drawing notice to yourself. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked without further warning. --Orlady (talk) 21:41, 17 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Eastern Colorado

The article Eastern Colorado has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unsourced and probably original research. It is obvious that the eastern part of the state could be called "eastern Colorado," but there is no indication here that this term is in common use for the region defined in this article.

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. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Orlady (talk) 14:58, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Northeastern Colorado

The article Northeastern Colorado has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unsourced and probably original research. It is obvious that the northeastern corner of the state could be called "northeastern Colorado," but there is no indication here that this term is in common use for the region defined in this article.

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.
