Speedy deletion nomination of Tim Colceri

A tag has been placed on Tim Colceri 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 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 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. ɪntə svɛnsk 17:27, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

MacAulay-Brown, Inc.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of MacAulay-Brown, Inc., and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.macaulay-brown.com/about-us/company-info.php. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

File source problem with File:688th Info Ops Wing Emblem.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:688th Info Ops Wing Emblem.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 did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 08:50, 30 November 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Killiondude (talk) 08:50, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

July 2014

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Jesse Owens may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Hitler shake hands with black 1936 Olympic hero Jesse Owens? - The UK Mail Online, 11 August 2009] Retrieved on 2014-07-29</ref>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 17:26, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Weapon Hunter moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, The Weapon Hunter, 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 follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page.

October 2021

Hello, I'm wolf. I noticed that you recently removed content from State defense force‎ without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you need assistance, you can contact the Help Desk. Thanks. - wolf 04:39, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to State defense force, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. - wolf 14:24, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

⚠️ Again, please stop making persistent, unsourced changes to State defense force. If you continue, you may end violating our edit warring policy. I have left a detailed message for you (again) on the article talk page. Please read it, and if you still won't respond, then at least consider the guidance provided. (Also, please note that back-and-forth edit summaries are not a suitable forum for discussion.) Thank you - wolf 22:57, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for November 23

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Party Party (film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Party Girl. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar 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) 05:59, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: George Parker (UK sailor) (December 20)

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

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:George Parker (UK sailor) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Majormadmax! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

See you there! KylieTastic (talk) 19:11, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:George Parker (UK sailor)

Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 23:06, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:George Parker (UK sailor)

Hello, Majormadmax. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "George Parker".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:26, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
