Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Mhking (talk) 05:31, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding High desert survival[edit]

Perhaps this is better added to Wikibooks? Try Survival. bibliomaniac 1 5 05:54, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article was removed from the content because it did not meet Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. Wikipedia is not a manual. As to the matter of taking me seriously - it matters not whether you take me seriously, I have been given a position of trust in which I am able to use my discretion in regards to the deletion of articles that clearly do not meet Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. -- Anonymous Dissident^Talk 07:47, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, my "authority" (this is a mis-representative adjective) is implied technically by my demonstrated ability to delete this article. Secondly, it was decided that I be allowed to use the extra functions of deletion, page protection and user blocking, on the English Wikipedia, here. And, as aforementioned, the term "authority" is not appropriate in this case; I am an administrator - merely an editor who has knowledge of policy and that has been privileged enough to be entrusted with a few extra "tools" to help out. Please see WP:ADMIN for more information regarding administrators. -- Anonymous Dissident^Talk 08:08, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That is an acceptable answer sir, thank you--bmweerman (talk) 16:14, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is acceptable enough to be a valid rationale for my "authority" to delete articles. I advise you integrate the information you know about desert survival and whatnot with existing articles and cite the information to reliable sources. -- Anonymous Dissident^Talk 16:36, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Minigpx[edit]

The article Minigpx has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Does not meet WP:GNG

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.
