Speedy deletion nomination of Harlan Institute

I am currently working on expanding the page to include relevant information. Please stave off deletion, I should be finished within the next day or two.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Harlan Institute requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Empire3131 (talk) 19:12, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Shelby Baird

Hello Zakmac12,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Shelby Baird for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Science Saturdays (talk) 04:09, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Praxis (entrepreneurship)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Praxis (entrepreneurship), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: UnCollege. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 16:09, 15 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Praxis, break the mold logo, vertical.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Praxis, break the mold logo, vertical.jpg, which you've attributed to A VRT notice was applied over 60 day(s) ago, but no message at VRTS has been found since this tag was applied.. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ronhjones ^(Talk) 21:51, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Praxis (organization)

The article Praxis (organization) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Promotional page. Grandiose claims of noteworthiness, but nothing to back them up. A WP:BEFORE shows no coverage in RSes meeting WP:CORPDEPTH or WP:GNG. No evidence this has ever been notable.

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.

Deletion

Hi, ZacMac12. I am writing to let you know that I plan on deleting your page on the Harlan Institute, because it only has three references to sources, and in every case, the source is the web-page for the Harlan Institute, which is not considered by Wikipedia to be a reliable source.

If you prefer the page not be deleted, please find some reliable sources, preferably secondary articles in mainstream or scholarly articles, books, journals, and incorporate them into your article.

Please do not take this personally. I'm not doing this because of anything about you; it's Wikipedia's guidelines for criteria for determining whether or not a subject is sufficiently notable to have a page in Wikipedia. Basically, a subject is considered notable only if sufficient mention of it can be found in mainstream media, books, or web-sites.

Best wishes, HandsomeMrToad (talk) 06:59, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
