Deletion discussion about Chris Fleming (philosophy)[edit]

Hello, EggplantDancer,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Chris Fleming (philosophy) should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Fleming (philosophy) .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. 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.

Thanks, Jbh ^Talk 14:30, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

November 2016[edit]

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that in this edit to Chris Fleming (philosophy), you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 07:17, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks once again for the hospitality. I changed the material in line with the comments above; I removed references to Fleming's own work and included references TO his work (radio interviews, academic sources, reviews in the press, quotes in the media about issues) by others. I've ommitted many more of these, as it would get too long. I was just attempting to improve the page in line with the comments made above. I'll be sure to add notes to any future changes.

Please use an edit summary[edit]

Your reason for removal should go on the edit summary. Not on my talk page.
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes.
