Notability of The Upstarts

A tag has been placed on The Upstarts requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- WebHamster 16:56, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Landkreis Regenwalde

Hello, Jimboradley, and thank you for your contributions!

An article you worked on Landkreis Regenwalde, appears to be directly copied from http://dictionary.sensagent.com/Landkreis_Cammin_i._Pom./de-de/. Please take a minute to make sure that the text is freely licensed and properly attributed as a reference, otherwise the article may be deleted.

It's entirely possible that this bot made a mistake, so please feel free to remove this notice and the tag it placed on Landkreis Regenwalde if necessary. MadmanBot (talk) 21:12, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article Needs Translation to English

Welcome, and thank you for contributing the page Landkreis Regenwalde to Wikipedia. While you have added the page to the English version of Wikipedia, the article is not in English. We invite you to translate it into English. It currently has been listed at Pages Needing Translation, but if it is not translated within two weeks, the article will be listed for deletion. Thank you. Sourov0000 (talk) 19:20, 30 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thoughts on Vatrogasna mreža‎

I wondered why you tagged the various things you tagged on an article that is not in English and is 99% certain to be speedily deleted. What are your thoughts, please? Fiddle Faddle 13:49, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I was using AWB and it suggested those tags, etc. I thought on the offchance that someone was to quickly translate it, those tags would still be needed. Jimboradley (talk) 13:55, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've never used AWB, so I have no idea how it behaves. I suspect one may need to use slightly more discernment with some of the articles it suggests. I've noticed it has guided you to a few less usual decisions. You're not wrong, that is certain, but the tagging you have done on a few articles is less usual. So please take this as positive input and not criticism. Fiddle Faddle 15:34, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly. I'm fairly new to Wikipedia, is it bad practice to add tags to articles likely to be deleted? If so, I'll keep that in consideration. Jimboradley (talk) 16:18, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Same with Sounds Of Silence (NGO), which I'm about to delete--you tagged it for dead end, orphan, stub, after the author had blanked it and requested deletion. Drmies (talk) 17:01, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's only bad practice if it looks weird after you have tagged it. Ok, that's a bit circular, so put yourself in the place of someone who has just arrived and looked at the article after tagging. Does it look sensible? if so, great job. Does it look somehow strange? If so then something went awry. Does that make sense. kind of? Fiddle Faddle 23:18, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Belated welcome

Greetings Jimboradley. I took the liberty of placing an editor's star on your user page. Now you're not a 'red link' on the radar screen. If you prefer to be anonymous please accept my apologies and remove the star. Regards, Gwillhickers 20:32, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Gee, thanks. I think I'll keep it. Jimboradley (talk) 20:33, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
