Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Beau Geste hypothesis requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

You should be using your sandbox to draft your article. Don’t move your work to mainspace until it’s a lot better developed. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:24, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Beau Geste hypothesis[edit]

Hi there Rileyregular18! As you may have noticed above, another Wikipedian saw that you created Beau Geste hypothesis with only a little placeholder content. Your sandbox is, as you know, a great place to work on articles until they are ready for prime time, so I've moved your placeholder to User:Rileyregular18/sandbox/Beau Geste hypothesis. It can live there as long as you like while you work through your course. Happy editing! ~ Amory (utc) 16:37, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Beau geste hypothesis[edit]

Hello Rileyregular18,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Beau geste hypothesis for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. Take a look at our suggestions for essential content in short articles to learn what should be included.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
