Proposed deletion of Melville Jones

The article Melville Jones has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Alec Wallis

Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: Alec Wallis. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our verifiability policy. Please add references as soon as possible. Thanks! --LaraBot (talk) 00:10, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sources REQUIRED

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. 69.181.249.92 (talk) 16:46, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

August 2010

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to the page Silver Nemesis. Such edits constitute vandalism and are reverted. Please do not continue to make unconstructive edits to pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you. Qwyrxian (talk) 16:49, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unreferenced controversial biographical content to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Silver Nemesis. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:27, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand any of this. You are quoting policies about living persons about me when in the information I added I said that Anton Diffring has been dead for over 20 years. Revenge of the Cybermen (talk) 20:31, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, but Prince Edward isn't dead, so for him the WP:BLP rules most definitely do apply. Further, if the rules of verifiability be taken literally, Diffring's TV watching habits is information that, to quote the policy, is "likely to be challenged", so any mention of this must be given a reference - whether Diffring is alive or dead is therefore immaterial. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:53, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Doctor Who - The Revenge of the Cybermen

Regarding the article Doctor Who - The Revenge of the Cybermen which you recently created: I have raised a discussion thread at the WikiProject Doctor Who discussion page. --Redrose64 (talk) 16:55, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

To add to this, I have been bold and redirected the article back to the serial. The content guideline Wikipedia:Content forking says:

"A content fork is the creation of multiple separate articles all treating the same subject. Content forks that are created unintentionally result in redundant or conflicting articles and are to be avoided. As an article grows, editors often create Summary style spin-offs or new, linked article for related material. This is acceptable, and often encouraged, as a way of making articles clearer and easier to manage."

At the moment I believe there is insufficient material on the Novelisation to justify it becoming a new article linked from the main one with only a summary remaining. If you do believe you have, or can assemble sufficient material, on the novelisation to create an article of reasonable size then I would recommend either:
a) that you assemble it within your "sandbox" or a sandbox or temporary page off the article - that would allow you maximum leeway to draft and rearrange the article until ready to be used.
or
b) include the material within the subsection of the article until such times as it becomes large enough to spin-off - don't forget referencing as you go.

If you disagree with my redirection of the article, you can undo my edit through the article history. We can discuss the matter either here, my talk page or at the discussion on the Doctor Who project page. I would recommend the last as being most visible for other editors to contribute their views.

AfD Nomination: Base under siege

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but all Wikipedia articles must meet our criteria for inclusion (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Since it does not seem that Base under siege meets these criteria, an editor has started a discussion about whether this article should be kept or deleted.

Your opinion on whether this article meets the inclusion criteria is welcome. Please contribute to the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Base under siege. Don't forget to add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of each of your comments to sign them.

Discussions such as these usually last seven days. In the meantime, you are free to edit the content of the article. Please do not remove the "articles for deletion" template (the box at the top). When the discussion has concluded, a neutral third party will consider all comments and decide whether or not to delete the article. WikiuserNI (talk) 16:26, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Melville Jones for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Melville Jones is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Melville Jones until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Tassedethe (talk) 01:38, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
