Reposting deleted articles

Please do not repost deleted articles, as you did with Rarechords. Thanks, OhNo itsJamie ^Talk 22:11, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to know who deleted it in the first place. Thanks. Go do something more worthwhile. SW

Userpage vandalism

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism, and if you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the hard work of others. Thank you. OhNo itsJamie ^Talk 22:33, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, please leave comments on the talk page (as you did the second time), not the userpage. Secondly, do not overwrite existing content on a user's talk page (unless you are editing your own comments). You should sign your posts by adding four tildes after your comments: ~~~~

Regarding the deletion...I didn't actually delete it. I tagged it as a repost of an article that had already been deleted, and an admin speedy-deleted it per policy. The reason both articles were deleted is that they don't meet WP:BIO or WP:MUSIC notability criteria. OhNo itsJamie ^Talk 22:53, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ok. thanks for clearing it up at least. i dont exactly know where to write this. but i guess it's easy to delete. cheers. Sleeping Wolf 22:57, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

One other suggestion...when you're leaving comments on a talk page, always leave them at the bottom. It's also a good idea to give you comments a "section heading" for organization. For instance, if you were asking someone a question about notability guidelines, you might start your comment like this:

==Music notability guidelines==

So what's up with the guidelines? ~~~~

That text will render on their page like this:

Music notability guidelines

If you're unsure about how something is going to turn out, the "Show Preview" is handy for checking it before you hit submit. Cheers, OhNo itsJamie ^Talk 23:08, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
