A tag has been placed on 1610-AM WPFP 929 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 a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

November 2016[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:Dual Freq, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. BilCat (talk) 16:44, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@BillCat Someone actually edited on my section so I was only deleting what someone did to my section.

That was a good-faith comment by someone who probably didn't know how to add a new section heading. It happens a lot with inexperienced users. - BilCat (talk) 17:44, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@BillCat Thx. Ill think about that next time.



I declined your speedy deletion nomination of Category:1842 establishments in South Carolina. You nominated it using the WP:A3 criterion. That is not a valid criterion to use on a Category. Categories are special pages in that they are used to group articles that contain a similar attribute together. In this case all the articles that are about something that was established in South Carolina in 1842. They way these are built is by adding the category to the article. If you look at the code I used above you will see that preceding the word Category is a colon {:}. On an article you would not add that : and it would add the article to the category page. It does not add this talk page to the category because I added the :. When you look at the Speedy deletion criterion, you will see it broken down into sections. The Criterion that start with an "A" are only allowed to be used in the article namespace. Those starting with "C" are only allowed to be used in the Category namespace. "F" can only be used in the file namespace, "T" in the template namespace and "U" in the userspace. The only group that can be used in multiple namespace is the "G" (general) criterion. Some of them are also limited where you can use them. If you haven't read through all the criterion, you should before adding any more speedy deletion tags. -- GB fan 21:31, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@ GB fan, OK thx, I think I was just looking for something that kind of adhered to the WP:A3. JustAGuyOnWikipedia (talk) 21:55, 22 November
