Articles for deletion nomination of Beatrix Townsend
[edit]I have nominated Beatrix Townsend, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Beatrix Townsend. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Simon-in-sagamihara (talk) 09:11, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
Your contributed article, Tot joins Mensa
[edit]Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Tot joins Mensa. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Beatrix Townsend. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Beatrix Townsend - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Simon-in-sagamihara (talk) 09:12, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
Beatrix Townsend can't be helped
[edit]Hello, Zowiebowie1 … Sorry, but I can't help with the article on Beatrix Townsend … see WP:ONEEVENT … the subject just does not meet either the general Notability or WP:BIO criteria … the fact that she qualified for membership in Mensa International at the age of two would be a mere footnote if she were to become notable later in her life (for some other reason), but in itself it is not sufficient for a Wikipedia article … BTW, please learn to use the "~~~~" to sign your posts so that SineBot doesn't have to keep doing it for you. Happy Editing! — 71.166.147.78 (talk · contribs) 17:55, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
