Welcome
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means, and on Notability (people) for more detail. Also, it must give independently verifiable sources. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted.
- For advice about creating articles, read the Introduction and the Guide to creating your first article.
- You should not write articles about yourself, your band, your client, your boss or your best friend - that's a conflict of interest.
- Wikipedia is not an advertising service. Before writing about your own organization, read FAQ/Organizations.
- For experiments, please use the sandbox.

Wikipedia articles need references
[edit]Hi. Welcome, again. Please read the guide to writing Your First Article, and note the importance of providing references to reliable sources. This is important for anything in Wikipedia, but it is especially important for articles about living people - read the policy on Biographies of Living Persons. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 19:40, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Kitami Woome
[edit]The article Kitami Woome has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- I doubt the authenticity of this entry. There are no mentions of this person in any of the usual sources. The only mention I can find is a Facebook page.
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.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
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. Wperdue (talk) 21:31, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
Articles for deletion nomination of Kitami Woome
[edit]I have nominated Kitami Woome, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kitami Woome. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Wperdue (talk) 06:21, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Your article was put up for deletion, but the nominator was nice enough to agree that it should be moved to YOUR "user subpage" instead. Please, when you create any new articles, create them in user subpage first.
Example: User:Infinant/NAME OF ARTICLE instead of NAME OF ARTICLE .
This will make it less likely your contributions will be deleted.
Once you have developed the page, and ask other editors with more experience what they think, you can then move it from User:Infinant/NAME OF ARTICLE >>> to >>> NAME OF ARTICLE
Again, this will help avoid deletion.
The nominator was concerned this article was a hoax. I will add this article to my watch list, if no sources are forthcoming, I will assume it is a hoax, and put the article up for deletion myself. Ikip (talk) 08:04, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

- User Infiant. I am sorry we have had this misunderstanding. By moving Kitami Woome to User:Infinant/Kitami Woome I was attempting to help give you some time to find sources and develop the article. Since you removed the deletion tag after I moved your article, there has been a lot of controversy over what I did. Since wikipedia is built on consensus and working together, this makes me look bad. That makes me feel like it was a mistake to try to help you.
- But I understand you are a new user, and you were only trying to build an article. We can't go backwards in time, we can only go forward.
- You need to provide sources about these articles. Do you have any sources for Kitami Woome that are on the internet? Maybe in a different language? Without these sources, your article will be deleted. By moving your article, I tried to give you a few weeks more to find sources, but regardless you have to provide sources.
- Please help me find sources. After these articles are deleted, you can request the articles be moved to your user page, as I did before, here is an explanation of how it works:
The article you created was just deleted? | ||
All is not lost. Here is what you can do right now: | ||
Many administrators will be happy to give you a copy of your deleted article, either by putting it on a special user page for you (a process called userfication) or by e-mailing you a copy.
Once you have the article, you can try to resolve the issues why it was deleted. If you've repaired the article, or you believe the reasons for deleting the article were in error, you can dispute the deletion at Deletion Review. Generally, you must show how the previous deletion(s) were in error, but this is the place to resolve disputes about whether a deletion was wrong. |
- At anytime type {{helpme}} followed by your question, and someone will come here and help you. I will watch your page, and also help you in anyway that I can. Let me know how I can help. Ikip (talk) 17:03, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

- I notice that the page was blanked by an IP editor, which was probably you, editing without logging in. Page blanking is taken as a request to delete, but only if done by the author of the page: if you like to blank the page again after logging in as User:Infinant, it will be deleted quickly; otherwise it will be gone anyway in about a week, Regards, JohnCD (talk) 09:30, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
