Just a quick note

[edit]

I honestly hope this doesn't come across as threatening -- it's a friendly message, honest! You've made good contributions, and I appreciate that very much. I should warn you, however, that per Wikipedia's username policy, naming yourself after a famous living person usually doesn't bode well, unless you can demonstrate somehow that you are the person in question. If you like, you can make a request to change usernames (note: you can only change to a name which isn't yet created, so don't start the account you'd like to switch to, if you want to keep this account). You're welcome to take your chances, too, but I can't make any promises. Either way, I really hope you see this as the friendly note I intend it to be; happy editing!

Proposed deletion of Halfway Bush School

[edit]

The article Halfway Bush School has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Primary schools are generally not notable, and there is nothing that suggests that this one is an exception.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
