[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Megan Angela Smith, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. GregJackP (talk) 01:26, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Megan Angela Smith. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you. I corrected the page and added a hangon tag for you.

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Megan Angela Smith. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Hamtechperson 02:07, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
This is your final warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Megan Angela Smith. Hamtechperson 02:10, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON. I AM TRYING TO CREATE A PAGE FOR A CANADIAN ACTRESS, WHAT GUIDELINES AM I NOT FOLLOWING? THIS IS MY FIRST TIME USING WIKI, SO I DO NOT UNDERTSNAD WHAT IS HAPPENING.
As was noted above, you are removing speedy deletion tags which appear as {{db-person}} tags. You have been advised 4 times of the process, in the notices that you get on this page and the one posted on the article space, including links to show you how to proceed. Take a few minutes and read up on what is needed, etc - it will help you write a better article and prevent it from being deleted. Good luck. (GregJackP (talk) 02:35, 28 February 2010 (UTC))
okayyy sorry, I didnt realize those messages where for me! So I dont see anything wrong with the artical I am putting in, other then its not finished yet. Its a biography for an actress here in Canada, so how long will those tags stay on the artical?
Speedy deletion nomination of Megan Smith
[edit]A tag has been placed on Megan Smith 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
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. ttonyb (talk) 06:09, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
- Meagan, I'm sorry to say that the article clearly does not meet the requirements listed in WP:ACTOR for inclusion on Wikipedia. This is an encyclopedia of notable information and people, whose notability is supported by third party reliable sources, and not a repository of biographies: that's why people have websites of their own as any good agent will tell you. From what I can see, none of the work that you have been involved in appear to meet the notability requirements as well. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 17:14, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
