[edit]Thank you for nominating the above article for FAC, unfortunately it does not meet the "inline citations" requirement for FA status (criterion 1(c) listed here:Wikipedia:Featured article criteria. I recommend that you withdraw your nomination. DrKay 14:05, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Maharishi central university, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant 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 general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Giles Bennett (Talk, Contribs) 15:14, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
Maharishi central university
[edit]Thank you for your message on my talk page. Firstly you need to be clear that I didn't delete the page myself, as I am not an administrator (administrators are the only people on Wikipedia with the power to delete pages). I merely flagged it as being a candidate for speedy deletion. An administrator would subsequently have reviewed the page, decided whether or not speedy deletion was an appropriate course of action (it would appear that he / she agreed that it was in this case) and then deleted the page. After flagging your page, I posted the text above, which does point out that if you contested the proposed speedy deletion you could add the {{hangon}} tag to the page, then post your reasons why it shouldn't be speedily deleted on the talk page for the article. You should be aware of this should you find any future page you create being flagged for speedy deletion.
On the second part of your message, the whole point of the {{db-spam}} method of speedy deletion is that the article would have required a substantial re-write to become a suitable candidate for entry into Wikipedia, and I therefore felt that a spam tag was more appropriate, rather than (for example) a {{wikify}} tag, which would have flagged the page as being in need of wikification.
What I would suggest is that you read the following - neutral point of view, notability and spam - they should give you the pointers you need to re-create the article in a more suitable format.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to leave a comment for me on my talk page. Giles Bennett (Talk, Contribs) 17:16, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
e-Sword
[edit]I'm trying to figure out what you were trying to do, when you put the delete tag on the e_Sword article. If it was an RfD it needs to be "3rd nomination" tag. If it was to tell people that there has been an RfD in the past, that information is found on the talk page. jonathon 20:36, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
- Could you clarify what you did with e-Sword, please? It is not, apparently, currently under deletion discussion, so the template is wrong and ought not be there. Would you like me to remove it? Cheers, Lindsay 08:58, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Centre
[edit]"Centre" is not a typo, it's the British English spelling of "center". Quale (talk) 02:42, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- I didn't look closely, but I think the article uses "defence", which is a British English spelling. You are right that consistency is the goal. Quale (talk) 03:03, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- I just took a look at the history of the Van 't Kruijs Opening article, and it looks to me like it was originally written using US English spelling. I think would be reasonable to use US English consistently in this article, and a few links to "Defence"s would need to be piped to use the "Defense" spelling. Maybe I shouldn't have reverted your edit but instead should have made the change to use US spelling throughout. Quale (talk) 03:08, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Emory Healthcare
[edit]A tag has been placed on Emory Healthcare 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 company or corporation, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.
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 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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. ukexpat (talk) 21:24, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Tagging for deletion
[edit]Either you aren't checking properly, or you have extraordinarily high standards for inclusion. I've just removed tags on 3 articles you just tagged for deletion. Please be more careful. Howdoyouturnthison (talk) 13:38, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
- I've just come here to say something similar. {{db-bio}} can only be used when notability is not asserted. It clearly was asserted in Vittorio Fiorucci.[1] In that case, use a prod or AfD, or consult with the author of the article to see if references are available to back up the assertions, or look for them yourself and improve the article. Adding CSD tags when not merited wastes time and irritates people unnecessarily. Ty 23:07, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
Notability of Quantifier Consortium
[edit]A tag has been placed on Quantifier Consortium requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 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 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. Rocksanddirt (talk) 18:16, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Talk:Gregory Maguire
[edit]I replied to your old question at Talk:Gregory Maguire. -- AvatarMN (talk) 10:05, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
- It's a very offensive infobox, IMO. I didn't ask whether you prefer to disregard gays, and I'd prefer not to be told. -- AvatarMN (talk) 05:39, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm. I don't quite understand the offense. Llamabr (talk) 14:31, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
- You go out of your way to tell strangers that you aren't open to their being open. That when it comes to homosexuality, they can just shut up. It's obnoxious. Imagine someone said "if you're a Jew I don't want to know it". -- AvatarMN (talk) 05:37, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
- I don't want to know if you're a jew either. I don't really want to know anything about you, frankly. Llamabr (talk) 03:05, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
- Whatever, now you're being intentionally thick. You know what I'm talking about, you're saying there's something about being gay that isn't fit to be out in the open. There's a difference between not caring whether you know something and caring that you not know something. -- AvatarMN (talk) 05:37, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
- Possibly. However, I'd put most people into both categories, gays and jews included. For gay people, and possibly jews, it may be important to them that the world recognize their orientation. For my part, however, I couldn't be bothered. All of this originated, I suppose, due to the fact that I was learning how to make infoboxes on the same morning that I stumbled upon DADT. If I were paying closer attention, I would have deleted it after my experiment was over. I'm not convinced that it's an offensive position, though (Bill Clinton seemed satisfied with it; I'm probably ambivelent). Probably if you're offended, you're reading more into it as a statement than is there. Llamabr (talk) 21:17, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
- Fair enough, I suppose. It sounds as if you're in fact more in the vein of not caring about the issue of one's sexuality, which is very different from "prefering not to be told", and is perfectly reasonable. But DADT is a lot more complicated, with roots in a belief that it would disrupt troop unity if gays were out. Until 60 years ago, the same argument was used to segregate blacks in the military. It was decided that catering to the bigotry of some of the troops at the expense of the digity of others of the troops was not acceptable. If you don't care whether someone's gay or not, I'm sure you don't support something like that. (And BTW, Clinton wasn't satisfied with it, it was just the best he could pass through the system at the time.) -- AvatarMN (talk) 18:50, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Belford U
[edit]Hi. Thanks for your good work on the subject article. Articles about diploma mills and suspected diploma mills (of which I have many on my watchlist) are subject to a lot of content deletion by users attempting to whitewash the institutions, so those of us who monitor these articles tend to get a bit trigger-happy when we see deletions that are not explained by edit summaries.
Also, as a general rule, when an article cites a published source that is no longer available online, it is better to mark the URL as "broken" than to delete the content and the source (see Template:Uw-deadlink). In this instance, I concluded that the true source was actually George Gollin's website and not the publication cited, so I fully agreed with your deletion.
Given the trigger-happy attitude of those of us who monitor these pages, I thought it best to tell the whole story in the edit summary. --Orlady (talk) 17:32, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
- For future reference: Template:Uw-deadlink is designed for user talk pages. To mark bad URLs in article space, use Template:citations broken (marks a whole section with several bad URLs), Template:citation broken (inline marking for bad URLs), or Template:failed verification (to mark a reference citation that does not support the content). Of course, the syntax for inserting these into articles is in the pattern {{citation broken}} or {{failed verification}} --Orlady (talk) 17:58, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Speedy delete tags
[edit]Prompted by your tagging of Ernest Salter Davies, I've reviewed your recent speedy delete tags. You'll see the results in your watchlist. Whilst most were fine, quite why you nominated a broken redirect for speedy deletion as a test page instead of fixing it, I'm not sure. Rudolph Tegner had a clear assertion of notability for CSD purposes. And, whilst I won't remove the tag you placed on Ernest Salter Davies, I'm surprised that when the article says that The Times has said that he was "for long a leading figure in educational administration and thought in England", you nevertheless think that there's no assertion of notability in the article! Incidentally, you win the prize for being the first person to suggest an article that I've written for speedy deletion for lack of notability. Regards, and happy editing. BencherliteTalk 01:16, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- I reviewed it, and did remove the tag. The Times and the NYTimes are the two papers where the presence of a full obit is accepted in Wikipedia as unquestionable proof of notability. And in any case an OBE in any class is more than enough to make a speedy impossible. Tegner is also well enough sourced to make a Speedy entirely unreasonable. Please read WP CSD A7 again. When you do tag speedies, or for any other form of deletion, please note that it is required that you indicate this in the edit summary so admins and other editors can easily identify those edits. It is also considered polite to notify the editors who introduced or substantially worked on the articles. Please try to be more careful about speedies in general.

The opening of this institution seems to get pushed back year after year. Since we have so little to say about it that isn't speculative, I'm thinking it would be better to delete it until the opening is imminent, and it's been better covered in sources. Will Beback talk 01:28, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
- I'd argue that it doesn't have a founder until it's founded. The most recent source I can find for it is an article in the IHT from last August. It says,
- He said it would take more than $100 million to start up the university — which he had wanted to have open two years after construction began — and that kind of money isn't easy to find amid a national banking crisis. Because of that, he said, a more reasonable estimate would be that the university will open in five to 10 years. [2]
- So that's anywhere from 2013 to 2018. It seems very premature to be listing which courses they may be offering. Would you object to a PROD? Will Beback talk 02:37, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Maharishi Central University
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Maharishi Central University, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- Non-notable proposed university - opening date postponed for years, orphan, only one minor 3rd party sources
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.

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. MuffledThud (talk) 14:35, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Notability
[edit]Just a friendly reminder that our policy on notability "does not directly affect the content of articles, but only their existence." In other words, material (such as alumni in university articles) do not have to meet WP:N to warrant inclusion in an article. Of course, material must meet some bar of importance or interest to warrant inclusion; that bar is not set by WP:N, though. ElKevbo (talk) 18:30, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Emory Healthcare
[edit]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 Emory Healthcare requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:2006-scion-tc.jpg
[edit]A tag has been placed on File:2006-scion-tc.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
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. Kelly hi! 17:26, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

Ext blog link
[edit]Sorry to undo your edit on Nature writing, but links to blogs are not normally valid external links. If there was a book based on the essays, that would be good under "Further reading" I should think. Cheers... Tony Holkham (talk) 22:33, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for March 19
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Positano, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page America. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:30, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
[edit]Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 09:57, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Justice and Responsibility-Sensitive Egalitarianism moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Justice and Responsibility-Sensitive Egalitarianism, does not have enough reliable sources and citations as written to remain published. Bookdealers and goodreads aare not acceptable sources. As Choice is not readily accessible, please indicate whether it was a especially featured (starred) review, or whether you are using "featured" in the generic sense -and provide another review. It would also help to indicate something about the author--to what extent is he an authority, perhaps , if he has written other books, whether the article should be about him, or whether there should be one about him as well. . (?) . 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.
