The article Ganiyu Adams has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Unsourced article on the leader of a faction of a Nigerian nationalist organization, which doesn't seem like much of a claim of notability.
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 {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

[edit]Please join us at Wikipedia:WikiProject Lagos! -- M2545 (talk) 15:41, 19 September 2014 (UTC) Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Ganiyu Adams a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. —Oluwa2Chainz »» (talk to me) 17:32, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
