Speedy deletion of Krider Performing Arts Center

A tag has been placed on Krider Performing Arts Center, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. ~~SIS~~ 00:56, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Cookock

A tag has been placed on Cookock, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Proposed deletion of Planet Of Ixchel

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Planet Of Ixchel, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Boogaliboo???

Could you please provide links to your article Planet Of Ixchel that prove the identity of Chey. Clem and the existence of his book Boogaliboo? Thanks. --Millbrooky (talk) 01:07, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was kind of hoping the reasons you can't site Wikipedia would be self evident. Not that you can't do it, just that it's completely inappropiate in this instance. I've added an example reference, a copy from the A Wrinkle in Time article, that needs to be included throughout. The Wikipedia reference I left was an oversight on my part. The reason I asked about Boogaliboo is that I could not find any evidence of the book being published. Amazon returns nothing, nor does Google which makes me wonder if the book even exists. I would say that finding a link proving the existence of this book should be your number one priority right now. Lastly, the Planet Of Ixchel article as you've written it is treading a fine line between being kept and deletion. I refer you to WP:INUNIVERSE to explain why this is problematic as it list many of the characteristics that the article may have issues with. --Millbrooky (talk) 05:45, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do you like to play in sandboxes?

Written before I saw your message... I noticed you blanked Planet Of Ixchel. If you don't mind, I'll ask for it to be deleted and you can start fresh. My main question to you is why don't you create your own sandbox? You can create a sub-page of you userpage such as User:Howdychicken/Sandbox from which you can work on an article in peace. Then when you're ready, you can move or copy over the article to the main Wikipedia space for all to find and see. --Millbrooky (talk) 23:22, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Click on that red link in my post above and start typing. If you look on my user page, you'll notice I maintain 4 sandboxes in my user space where I store article stubs and notes before I publish them on the main space. Many other wikipedians do the same thing. See this page for reference on how to create a user subpage. --Millbrooky (talk) 00:02, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
