Blazer Boulevard has been proposed for deletion. Please see the article for details. NickelShoe 00:14, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry I was so unhelpful earlier. I must have been in a hurry. You need to peruse WP:WEB. Basically, the key is sources. If the site is notable, people will be talking about it. So find proof of this, and put that proof in the article. If there isn't any such proof, then probably it's just not appropriate for Wikipedia at this time.

Thanks! This makes sense. I will remove the article until the time is right. Willshepherdson 21:27, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed by an automated bot. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. If you feel you have received this notice in error, please contact the bot owner // Tawkerbot2 21:29, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
- Oo, see, that's not deleting the article. That's just making it blank, which is confusing to readers. If you would like the article to be deleted, please go to the deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Blazer Boulevard and ask someone to delete it. You can also place {{db-author}} at the top of an article you've written to request speedy deletion. NickelShoe (Talk) 21:33, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
Whoops! Sorry, I will do what you told me. Willshepherdson 21:35, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
I'll echo the other people here and state that blanking a page is considered vandalism regardless of the reason. Since you (the original author) wanted it deleted, I went ahead and got rid of it. — Mar. 19, '06 [21:36] <freakofnurxture|talk>
- Also, can you explain Blazer Boulevard/old? I'm not sure what your intent is with having this subpage. NickelShoe (Talk) 21:37, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
I created it to have a copy when I deleted it...but then I couldn't...and it was then removed by User:freakofnurture so I think everything if fine now... right? Willshepherdson 21:48, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
- Yup. Looks good. NickelShoe (Talk) 22:10, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit]- A CSD (speedy delete) would probally be the best option, it looks like thats already happened -- Tawker 22:20, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
Yeah. That is what we did. Willshepherdson 00:50, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 04:21, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
Regarding Blazer Boulevard...
[edit]Hello Fellow Blazer -
I removed the link to Blazer Boulevard because it didn't appear very encyclopedic. While the links to the Montgomery Blair High School home page and Silver Chips may prove useful to readers, Blazer Boulevard's nature as a blog likely will not. joturner 02:58, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
I understand. Thanks you for improving the Blair page on Wikipedia so much. Willshepherdson 00:59, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
