Welcome!

Hello, Rabbitman234, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Blood magic, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Blood magic, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

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.

The article Blood magic has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

"blood magic" is not a specifically or usefully defined term in anthropology, or from what I can ascertain, anywhere else for that matter. As written the article is unsourced and WP:OR. No demonstration here, or elsewhere, this is a valid, cohesive or particularly meaningful concept, or a topic that is consistently distinguished by 3rd-party sources. The info abt precolumbian civilizations is wrong/misleading anwyways–bloodletting had ritual & religous significance, not 'magical'/'demonological'.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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. cjllw ʘ TALK 08:02, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
