[edit] Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as P. C. Shine. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:01, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
Hello, Leif One. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Robert W. Forrest, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Robert W. Forrest to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.
If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.
Thanks,

- regarding your summary: I see - I'll remove the proposal for deletion and move that article to draft. When you feel it's sufficiently sourced, you can move it back to the main space. Putting it into draft will put it temporarily to the side of most new article watch lists and allow you to build it up without it being tagged or otherwise unduly examined. Even in draft space it's still best to cite info as you include it though. If in doubt you can actually just start by putting citations in the draft and then build up the text based on them.

Robert W. Forrest moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Robert W. Forrest, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. New articles generally need at least two (but preferably more) references from reliable sources that are independent of the subject that discuss the subject with significant coverage (trivial mentions do not contribute to notability).(See Rule 42) Information that can't be referenced to reliable sources should be removed from the draft because verifiability is necessary for information added to Wikipedia.
I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of Draft:
before the article title) where you can work on the article with minimal disruption from other users while you improve it.
When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready to be published, you can move it back to the article space yourself. However, I recommend that instead of moving it yourself that you follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template that I have added to the page. This submits the article to be reviewed by experienced editors that specialize in helping new editors write their first articles. Edaham (talk) 06:32, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
Concern regarding Draft:Wille Sundqvist
[edit] Hello, Leif One. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Wille Sundqvist, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Draft space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for article space.
If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion under CSD G13. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it. You may request userfication of the content if it meets requirements.
If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available here.

Your draft article, Draft:Wille Sundqvist
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
Hello, Leif One. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Wille Sundqvist".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
, {{db-draft}}
, or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 09:58, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

The file File:SpokaneMap1890GiesAndCompanyofBuffaloNewYork.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
unused, low-res, no obvious use
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
