Film editor articles
[edit]Hello Shannon! I've noticed some of your excellent film editor articles, which is an area I've done some work on in the past. I'm not doing much at present, but I did keep some notes for future articles at User:Easchiff/Sandbox#Notability and some notable editors without articles. Also, in the last few months a German editor has been writing up film editors; he takes what he can from the English Wikipedia, but he has added quite a bit to that. See de:Benutzer:Critican.kane; he lists film editor articles under "Schnitt". He's already done de:Lynzee Klingman, for example, who doesn't yet have an English language article. Best regards, Easchiff (talk) 16:42, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up. I'm always looking for new editors to make pages for and finding ways to improve my articles. I'll definitely take a look at these. Thanks again! Shannon Tucker (talk) 17:00, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
- I've added the Wikiproject banner to the talk page for the Julian Clarke article you started; there's a good community of people working on filmmaker articles, but not usually film editors. If you're interested, take a look at the WikiProject page, which does have a few notes about film editor articles: WP:WikiProject_Actors_and_Filmmakers. Best, Easchiff (talk) 17:27, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
- Absolutely. Thanks again. Shannon Tucker (talk) 17:31, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

The article Peter Teschner has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No indication of how this might meet notability guidelines. Lacks citations to significant coverage in reliable sources. Only a single reference to IMDB is listed.
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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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. RadioFan (talk) 20:39, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Contagion (film) do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Erik (talk | contribs) 01:19, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Drive (2011 film). Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Bluebonnet460 (talk) 23:12, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

Hello, Shannon Tucker, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia!
I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you worked on, Dog Fight (film), for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
- edit the page
- remove the text that looks like this:
{{proposed deletion/dated...}} - save the page
It helps to explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the Help Desk. Thanks again for contributing! Pete (talk) 01:33, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

What did you think about the deletion notice you received?
[edit]Hi Shannon Tucker,
In November you received a message about either "Nomination for deletion" or "Proposed deletion" of an article you created. I'd like to ask you a few quick questions:
- Was the message helpful? Were the instructions clear and easy to follow?
- If not, how do you think the message could be improved?
- What do you think about the deletion process in general? Do you understand how to contest a deletion?
You can feel free to answer on my talk page or send me your response by email (mpinchuk
wikimedia.org). (I won't quote you or link your answers to your username if you don't feel comfortable with that.) Your feedback is incredibly useful for improving the content of deletion notifications, so please take a minute to think about and answer these questions. Thank you!

The article Hunter Via has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Only sources for this article are his University website and a personal blog. While he has worked on notable projects, his work does not seem to meet criteria listed at WP:ARTIST
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
