Speedy deletion nomination of UK Cleaning Products Industry Association
A tag has been placed on UK Cleaning Products Industry Association 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also 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. Grim23★ 20:21, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from National Pest Technicians Association, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Grim23★ 15:00, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Should it be moved to the new name? Everard Proudfoot (talk) 19:55, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
You're quick off the mark. Have you been having Weetabix for breakfast? These 'media arts college' names are slightly bizarre and not recognisable. I think most people know the school by the former name. I would doubt many people call it media arts college. DinosaursLoveExistence (talk) 20:02, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:JohnLeggottLogo.gif
Thanks for uploading File:JohnLeggottLogo.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 05:07, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

Am I right in thinking that you added the list of Burnley Grammar School Alumni to the Hameldon Community College page last year? --Trappedinburnley (talk) 12:21, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
- I've started work on a Burnley Grammar School page, you can find it here. I've worked my way through the alumni either adding references or a citation needed tag (in the case of quite a few people who already have a wikipage I have added the info there). The ones marked with the citation tag really need to be referenced or removed. Feel free to add the references, if you are not sure how, put the info on my talk page and I'll sort it out. Sir George Ogden looks especially iffy as he is listed at Giggleswick School. --Trappedinburnley (talk) 20:53, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

- I see you have been busy adding information on various pages today - I am asking you as a newbie myself, to please read and understand that long rambling uncited comments are liable to be challenged and deleted. You are risking being blocked because you arent taking notice of the advice by more experienced users about how Wikipedia works. Everything that is put on Wiki pages has to be verifiable by an external source - and nothing should be put online that is meaningless to a non-local (especially when uncited) and the key to writing on Wiki is to be clear, concise, and cite your information. Just because you happen to know something to be true is not enough, you have to be able to prove it because by its nature, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. There are many users out there more experienced than I that could and would help to point you in the right direction and yet you persist in ignoring them, which is not helping your own case at all. Please listen I would be more than happy to put you in touch with those who can help you - and in my own experience, I have found out far more about things dear to me by being pushed to find citations.

When adding links to material on external sites, as you did to Crookes Healthcare, please ensure that the external site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe the linked site is not violating copyright with respect to the material, then you should do one of the following:
- If the linked site is the copyright holder, leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page;
- If a note on the linked site credibly claims permission to host the material, or a note on the copyright holder's site grants such permission, leave a note on the article Talk page with a link to where we can find that note;
- If you are the copyright holder or the external site administrator, adjust the linked site to indicate permission as above and leave a note on the article Talk page;
If the material is available on a different site that satisfies one of the above conditions, link to that site instead. VQuakr (talk) 07:21, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
The article Tom Sandars has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Hello
I just thought I'd let you know that I saw your article John Hess (journalist) in the New Articles list-- The information is presented clearly and is easy to understand.

Some tips to help you out!
Hi DinosaursLoveExistence, I thought I'd drop a few notes on your talk page with some help on writing articles :o)
First of all, it may be best for you to do a bit of reading, starting with the Wikipedia manual of style, which will give you a lot of information about how Wikipedia prefers its articles to be written. It's not as hard to follow as it might look; quite a bit of the information there probably won't be vital for you at first.
Second, I recommend you make a user sandbox - which is just an area you can use to practise in, and to make notes in, and to get things ready in. If you click this red link: user:DinosaursLoveExistence/Sandbox, that will let you create that page (it gives you an edit window to start work in). Anything, anywhere, on the help and information pages which gives you an example, try it out in your sandbox until you're familiar with it.
For your article, the next thing you want to do is start collecting as much information as you can about it. Google searches (particularly in Books and Scholar) will be your best friend for this! Once you've found the information, the next most important thing is to start writing up each fact in your own words (very important, this), and make a note at the same time of exactly where that information came from. Build in the references as you go along; I'm going to copy in, down below this, a whole heap of help on doing references, which was produced by one of our best teachers (Chzz).
Here's another place that you'll find incredibly useful - citation templates which you can copy and paste into your sandbox, between <ref></ref> tags; you just fill in the blanks from your sources into the template, and you'll end up with nicely formatted inline citations :o) It all helps. Remember to add a references section to your sandbox (make a new line, and put ==References== on it, and type {{reflist}} on the next line, so that you can see how your citations look as you do them. Remember to save your page often! You don't want to lose your work.
Hopefully this will give you a good start and make life easier for you.
One last thing to keep as a motto: "It's better to write one good, well-referenced, nicely-presented article than it is to create fifty unreferenced one-line stubs!" Pesky (talk …stalk!) 08:56, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
Something to make your life easier!
Hi there DinosaursLoveExistence! I've just come across one of your articles, and noticed that you had to create titles for your url links manually, or were using bare urls as references.
You might want to consider using this tool - it makes your life a whole heap easier, by filling in complete citation templates for your links. All you do is install the script on Special:MyPage/common.js, or or Special:MyPage/vector.js, then paste the bare url (without [...] brackets) between your <ref></ref> tabs, and you'll find a clickable link called Reflinks in your toolbox section of the page (probably in the left hand column). Then click that tool. It does all the rest of the work (provided that you remember to save the page! It doesn't work for everything (particularly often not for pdf documents), but for pretty much anything ending in "htm" or "html" (and with a title) it will do really, really well. Happy editing!

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Lincoln, England. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.. Acabashi (talk) 00:51, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
The article Shan Morgan has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Hi. When you recently edited AMG Group, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Force Ten (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The article Hannah Ayscough has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Mother of??? Are mothers of, fathers of, siblings of notable? (unless they are Royalty, it would seem)
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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{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.
