Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:All About Bacteria

A tag has been placed on Draft:All About Bacteria requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

Aleady dealt with in antibiotic artcle

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

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 "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 deleted 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.

Your Draft:St.Lucia Racer Snake...

...has been nominated for Speedy Deletion, as there is an existing article Erythrolamprus ornatus. You could consider adding to that, but only content that you can reference, not what you know personally or have opinions about. David notMD (talk) 17:50, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia with this username. This is because your username, Leo and Grace, does not meet our username policy.

Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below) and continue editing.

A username should not be promotional, appear to represent a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account. However, you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" on their talk page.
At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.

If you think that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.

A Wikipedia account is for use by only one person, not two. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 19:44, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Even if you are just one person, your now-blocked name implies two. David notMD (talk) 20:45, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Cullen328 and David notMD: "Leo and Grace" are the names of two fictional characters from the TV Series Will and Grace, who wound up married at the end of the series. See this. You may want to rethink this one. DES ^(talk)_{DESiegel Contribs} 22:44, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I suspected that this username was a reference to fictional characters, DESiegel, but as I see it, the username still implies shared use to me. Those unfamiliar with the TV show will definitely see it that way. I do not consider it appropriate. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 22:50, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That was my response when I saw the name at the Teahouse. Sorry L&G. Doug Weller talk 15:22, 19 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:All About Bacteria

Hello, Leo and Grace. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "All About Bacteria".

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.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! UnitedStatesian (talk) 17:44, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
