Sources for PABBIS
[edit]Hello, good work on PABBIS, and thanks for the contribution. However, you did not provide any references or sources in the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. From what websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to PABBIS? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? You can simply add links, or see WP:CITET if you wish to review some of the different citation methods. Thanks! BRIAN0918 03:13, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
Brian, I merely created a stub with no content, just some headers, so there was nothing to cite. It looks like it was reverted within 20 minutes or so of creation. For future reference, could you please let me know why you reverted the change on the CIPA page and deleted the stub? Is the preferred approach to have a fairly complete entry prepared before creating an article? Thank you. sgb 02:47, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article The Awakening, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
