The article Timber trackway has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. I42 (talk) 18:18, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of BP Dividend options[edit]
A tag has been placed on BP Dividend options requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, 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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon 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. 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. ttonyb (talk) 18:39, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

- I am going to work on the articles of others, rather than start my own for now. Colormere (talk) 21:19, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi Colormere. I've been working on the article you nominated for GAN Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. I didn't realize you had nominated it. However, now I realize you have, so I hope you don't mind my interference. I became very interested in the article when I saw all the interesting people who have won it. Please let me know how you feel. MacDaid (talk) 16:09, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Your GA nomination of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine[edit]
Hello! I saw that you nominated the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for a Good Article. Normally there is a tradition that if you are not the major contributor to the article you will ask the major contributors for permission to nominate it. You do not seem to have done that. That is no problem in itself since there is no rule against it but it is, perhaps, common courtesy to ask. The major contributor has asked if I could change the nominators name to his instead of yours? Or add his name as a co-nominator? Cheers, Esuzu (talk • contribs) 18:55, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
