A page you started (John Dunn (American football)) has been reviewed![edit]

Thanks for creating John Dunn (American football).

I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The subject doesn't appear to meet WP:NGRIDIRON, so the article needs more citations to significant coverage in reliable sources to demonstrate its notability.

April 2019[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Meters (talk) 03:07, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello. Your recent edit to Mountain View High School (Utah) appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

Hello, Cbowers77,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Onel5969 and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I’ve proposed an article that you started, Lance Anderson (American football), for deletion because it meets one of the relevant criterion.The particular issue can be located in the notice, that is now-visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to prevent the deletion:

  1. Edit the page
  2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. Click Publish Changes button.

But, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the raised issues. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Onel5969}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Onel5969 TT me 11:05, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cbowers77 (talk)Hi Onel5969!

I deleted the proposal to delete on Lance Anderson based on his notoriety as the top assistant, associate head coach, and defensive coordinator at a power 5 conference school, in major college football. There is also a high probability that he will be a head coach in the near future. I also intend on going back and adding more references, and more material to the page.

Thanks! Cbowers77

Nomination of Lance Anderson (American football) for deletion[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Lance Anderson (American football) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lance Anderson (American football) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Onel5969 TT me 02:04, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Lance Anderson (American football) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lance Anderson (American football). When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Additionally, you are creating sections ala:

The two year values should be split by an endash which is slightly wider than a hyphen (see MOS:DATERANGE and En dash) and "Present" should be lowercase, ala:

Coaching trees[edit]

Cbowers77, how's it going? I reverted a whole bunch of your recent edits in which you added coaching tree sections to bio articles. These "coaching trees" all lack sourcing to establish their notability and are most likely fancruft. Please see Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Coaching trees and the linked discussion for more on this. Thanks, Jweiss11 (talk)

Deletion discussion about Scott Symons (American football)[edit]

Hello, Cbowers77, and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit here too, under the username Slywriter, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Scott Symons (American football), should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Scott Symons (American football).

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Slywriter}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Thanks and question[edit]

Hi, I believe you have some experience creating football articles. Thanks for your work in this area. We really need more of it around here. I was wondering if you have ever taken a look at Wikipedia:Requested articles/Sports/American football#Rivalries. There are numerous college football rivalry articles that have been requested for a long time and have been lingering around with no action taken. There are numerous other football subjects with requested articles on this page as well. Would you be interested and willing to help create some of these rivalry articles at your earliest convenience? 2603:6010:61F0:91B0:1AE7:8464:5C4C:8B18 (talk) 03:06, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
