Speedy deletion nomination of Thomas W. Talley

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Thomas W. Talley 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Good luck at ACS editathon

Hi KLindblom. I don't believe we got the chance to meet on Sunday at the symposium, but I enjoyed your talk on the ACS's outreach work on wikipedia and chemical knowledge in general. I wish you the best of luck with your editathon today, though I won't be able to be there (I have a good excuse: I'm in SF right now). Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:17, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

DYKs from ACS editathon

Both Cynthia Larive and Day-Glo Color Corp. are long enough for Did You Know. See the instructions at Template talk:Did you know#To nominate an article. As an experienced DYKer, I have to review someone else's nomination in order to nominate articles myself, but because you have less than 5 DYK credits you don't have to do that, so there's positive arbitrage if you nominate them yourself. I'll keep an eye on them and help out with the nominations if any issues come up. Antony–22 (^talk⁄_contribs) 04:32, 22 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Day-Glo Color Corp.

On 4 April 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Day-Glo Color Corp., which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that hula hoops and Tide detergent boxes were two of the first consumer products that used the fluorescent pigments invented by the Day-Glo Color Corp.? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Day-Glo Color Corp.. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Mary Ceruti (February 27)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by DGG was:

possibly notable, but this has to be shown by substantial 3rd party independent published reliable sources, , not just notices about her appointment. There's an alternative option, WP:PROF--the first step, is listing her books and other major publications.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Mary Ceruti and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Mary Ceruti, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

DGG ( talk ) 03:27, 27 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, KLindblom! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! DGG ( talk ) 03:27, 27 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Mary Ceruti

Hello, KLindblom. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Mary Ceruti".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
