A tag has been placed on Julia Tutweiler, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. The Sunshine Man 15:39, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
WikiProject Alabama
[edit]Hey, Heatherfire. I saw that you added your name to the list of members on WikiProject Alabama and wanted to welcome you to the project. We're still fairly new (only a few months old) and are currently working on tagging articles with the project banner and assessing them for quality/length; SatyrBot has saved us a great deal of time with this. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to leave a message on the project talk page. Again, welcome! - auburnpilot talk 15:39, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
I'd like to add my welcome too. We're always glad to have new faces. Please feel free to ask for any help you may need. Happy editing! JodyB talk 03:06, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
I noticed the message from The Sunshine Man about the Tutweiler article being speedy deleted, and looking at the deleted text, I think you established basic notability. I've re-created the article (which granted is quite short) in my userpace here. If you'd like to contribute, I'm going to attempt to bring this stub up to a more fleshed out article, add some references, and hopefully move it back into article namespace. Feel free to jump in! - auburnpilot talk 15:45, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
- See Julia Tutwiler. I couldn't figure out why she didn't have an article yet, and it seems she already does. Have to love those typos... - auburnpilot talk 03:24, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of T J Blackburn Syrup Works, Inc.
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on T J Blackburn Syrup Works, Inc. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
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), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Wikipedia Campus Ambassadors wanted in Troy, Alabama
[edit]Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you're a member of WikiProject Alabama. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at Troy University, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.
Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).
I know Alabama is a big state, but if you happen to live near Troy and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from Troy who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 16:28, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
