User talk:Wistolkio

Hello Wistolkio. Welcome to the English Wikipedia
Thank you for registering! We hope that you find collaborative editing enjoyable. Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia that started in 2001, is free for all to use and edit within the guidelines and principles users have established and adhere to. Many of these principles and guidelines are listed below. Click on the link next to the images for more information. REMEMBER - each policy and/or guideline page has a discussion you can join to ask questions, add input and contribute your voice towards any current policy or guideline change underway! Join the discussion by going to the talkpage of the article. Sometimes new editors become frustrated quickly and find their experience on Wikipedia less than enjoyable. This need not be. If you are having a difficult time for any reason, please feel free to ask me for assistance!

This is being posted on your Talk page where you can receive messages from other Wikipedians and discuss issues and respond to questions. At the end of each message you will see a signature left by the editor posting. This is done by signing with four ~~~~ or by pressing or in the editing interface tool box, located just above the editing window (when editing). Do not sign edits that you make in the articles themselves as those messages will be deleted, but only when using the article talkpage, yours or another editor's talkpage. Another valuable page that may provide information and assistance is User:Persian Poet Gal/"How-To" Guide to Wikipedia. If you have any questions or face any initial hurdles, feel free to contact me on my talk page and I will do what I can to assist or give you guidance and contact information.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with German Cabrera. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. – Kosm1fent 14:59, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages. Doing so won't stop the discussion from taking place. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the appropriate page. Thank you. --Arsenalkid700 (talk) 22:35, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

German Cabrera

Hello, Wistolkio. I got your note on my talk page about German Cabrera, and also looked at the deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/German Cabrera. Apparently the nomination to delete this page is based on the notability criteria, which are one of the fundamental policies of Wikipedia. Basically, in order to have an article about a person, there must be "significant coverage [of that person] in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." If you want to keep the article, the best thing to do would be to find published reliable sources that contain information about this player, and add references to the article or to the deletion discussion. ("Independent of the subject" means that, for example, a team website that lists him would not be good enough.) --R'n'B (call me Russ) 21:48, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

And don't take it personally! The discussion is about the article, not about you (or about the other editors, so please don't take it out on them, either). Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 23:55, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
