Speedy deletion of Sofia Perez

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Sofia Perez requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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.

I have spent the last 90 minutes bringing the article up to code and feel I have shown definite notability since its DVD release of last May. Might you suggest anything else I might add? Thanks, Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 01:45, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I found many more reviews but did not want to make the reception section too heavy. Anything else I might add? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 01:59, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Excellent advice. I'll keep working on it. Hope it passes review at the AfD. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 02:39, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: vandalism

[edit]

yeah, sorry about the warning. I'm using WP:Huggle to revert vandalism and I hit the 'revert and warn' button instead of the 'revert only' button. (I removed it immediateatley btw) Anyway, if you encounter this kind of situation again (it's called pagemove vandalism), first, check to see if the redirect page that was created as a result of the move has been edited since the move was performed. If it has not, just click on the "move" tab at the top of the page (the article page, not the redirect that was just made), type in the correct name, and click "submit." If the redirect page has been edited since the move was performed, then you will need to contact an administrator to clean it up. The easiest way to do this would probably be to post a quick note on the administrator's noticeboard. Hope that answers your question and thanks for your anti-vandalism work.

Karl Marx edit

[edit]

I just looked at the link you provided. It's a self-published book, so both WP:SPS and WP:UNDUE would apply. Dougweller (talk) 11:37, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Biographies of living persons

[edit]

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did with this edit to John Shelby Spong. Wine Guy Talk 06:28, 2 February 2010 (UTC) [reply]

Religion

[edit]

Religion isn't a "bad" thing. It's just a thing. In this case, it is a thing that is unrelated to Spear's notability, her profession, or her career. Providing it with a standalone section elevates it to a level of importance that it simply hasn't got. Beyond that, your citation is to a website of no known reliability. You edit violates WP:UNDUE and WP:RS.—Kww(talk) 04:48, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For adherents.com to be used as a source, you would have to show that it has a reputation for accuracy: basically that it's used as a reference by journalists and scientists. I don't think that's possible. That still leaves a second hurdle to leap: demonstrating that Spears's religion is a significant enough factor in her life to be worth mentioning.—Kww(talk) 16:23, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

February 2010

[edit]

Please do not add unsourced or original content. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --John (talk) 04:57, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, you will be blocked from editing. --John (talk) 05:28, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable sourcing

[edit]

I'm certainly surprised that you consider sourcing something to a reliable source as a burden: [1]. If you can't provide sources for your edits, then Wikipedia may not be an appropriate place for you. Woogee (talk) 06:33, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your Worthy Edits Of Martin Heidegger

[edit]

I have restored your worthwhile edits of the first paragraph of the Martin Heidegger article. I suspect that the individual who reverted you will attempt to do so again. so if you have nothing better to do you might wish to stop by the Martin Heidegger article from time to time to protect your edits.

Please be aware that the account that left the message above is extremely likely to be a sockpuppet of Jonathansamuel, who has been blocked for a month for repeated edit warring and block evasion. See EdJohnston's talk page, and this page [2]. UserVOBO (talk) 21:28, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
