A tag has been placed on Betta smaragdina, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. --stephenw32768<user page><talk> 00:52, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Speedy deletion of Philippe Tailliez

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Philippe Tailliez 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 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Notability of Maurice Genevoix

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Maurice Genevoix 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

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. Mhking (talk) 21:55, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:AIV reports

[edit]

As a reminder, before reporting a user to WP:AIV, make sure they have vandalized recently and been warned. Not only had it been ten days since the IP address you reported last vandalized, but they also had already been blocked for six months. —C.Fred (talk) 23:18, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did a massive cleanup of Maurice Genevoix. I don't speak French, so I wasn't able to get much information in the rewrite, since I could only find one English source. If you find any problems with it, go ahead and fix it. bibliomaniac15 03:06, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - a stub type which you created has been speedy deleted. It was an inferior duplicate of the correctly-named {{Scorpaeniformes-stub}} (which should be used instead). Please note that stub templates should be proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, for discussion as to their naming, viability as stub types, and general use. in this case, had you done so, the existing stub type would have been quickly pointed out. Grutness...wha? 00:23, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Aquatic Inverts proposal

[edit]

Considering we don't actually have a page Aquatic inverts or anything similar, it might help a lot if you either changed the name of the proposal to something we actually do have a page for or indicated exactly what you mean by the term. John Carter (talk) 22:03, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You probably need to change it to the whole title, Aquatic invertabrates. bibliomaniac15 03:25, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - a stub template or category which you created has been nominated for deletion or renaming at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. The stub type, which was not proposed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, does not meet the standard requirements for a stub type, either through being incorrectly named, ambiguously scoped, or through failure to meet standards relating to the current stub hierarchy or likely size, as explained at Wikipedia:Stub. Please feel free to make any comments at WP:SFD regarding this stub type.

This is the second time this month that you have created a stub type that needed action. Please, in future, follow the instructions at WP:STUB and propose new stub types for debate prior to creating them! Grutness...wha? 00:19, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

S'alright. As to other stubs like it, there are loads of different stub types for invertebrates, split by order and family: {{arthropod-stub}}, {{crustacean-stub}}, {{arachnid-stub}}, {{insect-stub}}, {{mollusc-stub}}, {{cephalopod-stub}}, {{crustacean-stub}}..., plus subtypes of quite a few of them. There's a list of them at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Stub_sorting/Stub_types/Science#Zoology. Grutness...wha? 00:39, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Removing the sfd notice from a stub template prior to the discussion being closed in not considered good form. The template and the badly named stub category you added have been renominated for deletion at SFD. Please do not remove the notices until the discussion has ended. Caerwine Caer’s whines 18:43, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Kribnesis, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. 76.79.100.242 (talk) 02:47, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type.

This is now the THIRD time that you have created a stub type which has needed extra work from other editors - work which would have been unnecessary had you proposed the stub type prior to creation as it recommends at WP:STUB. Please, stop making extra work for stub sorters by making stub types without proposal. Proposing stub types may be only listed as a guideline rather than a policy, but guidelines usually have very, very good reason for existing. In future, put forward any new stub types for discussion before you create them! Grutness...wha? 00:47, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. Forgot about that. OK, I'll make a little note to propose next time, although, when I checked, I didn't see a stub for cuttlefish.

I see from the history of List of freshwater aquarium fish species that you are interested in tropical fish. I have an article request. Can you create Featherfin squeaker (Synodontis eupterus)? We recently got a submission on the photo submission OTRS queue of some featherfin squeaker pictures (Image:Synodontis eupterus 1.jpg and Image:Synodontis eupterus 2.jpg) and I'd like to see them used in an article.

Re: Nardow redirect?

[edit]

Hi Jourdy - you wrote: Why does Nardoa redirect here when it's on this list?

I've no idea. My best guess would be that there could be two different types of animal known as nardoa. If so, it should be fairly easy to verify that with google, and then Nardoa can be made into a disambiguation page. Grutness...wha? 10:25, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Tetris Friends

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Tetris Friends, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

no implication of notability, no reliable sources, nothing to show why this is significant

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Terrillja talk 03:01, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Tetris Friends, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

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.

File source problem with File:The Other End Off The Line Poster.jpg

[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:The Other End Off The Line Poster.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4.

Phantom Gear moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Phantom Gear, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
