Sam Peffer
Dear Philafrenzy Could you help please. My most recent book was published in November. It is referenced no 23 on my Wiki entry, and mentioned in the last paragraph. It contains a chapter on Sam Peffer and several illustrations of his work. He is quoted and mentioned throughout the book, and he was a significant artist. I cannot add a reference to my book as the Wiki Police will cite self promotion or COI. I wonder if you could take the time to add this reference to your original article? My reference is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Larkin - thank youColin Larkin (talk) 13:52, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Digital Unlimited Group
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 Digital Unlimited Group 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, corporation or organization that does not credibly 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 "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. DGG ( talk ) 06:34, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi...Can you check the talk page of this journalist....looks mixed up? Whispyhistory (talk) 18:50, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
- She was redirected as non-notable in 2011, but it's fine to recreate if you think things have changed ten years later. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:42, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, it was re-created by someone else and I saw an empty article. There is another one (translation from Spanish)..your suggestions ?? What to do with umlauts? Roentgen or Röntgen? Whispyhistory (talk) 05:41, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
- The Mexican one needs a clearer expression of precisely why she is notable. What special thing has she done? Judging from the disambiguation page for Roentgen, umlauts may depend on whether it is a word that has passed into English in which case, don't use them, or if it is a name in which case do. What to do with a word that is not a name, is a matter of debate. I think they are difficult to type and not well understood. Philafrenzy (talk) 08:01, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

FYI
An article you started Marc David Baer is accused of being "A poorly written article with only one source. Notability is dubious. It seems as if it was written for self-promotion." Just FYI that you're being (wrongly imo) accused of promotional editing. (t · c) buidhe 22:17, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
