Nicolai Malko

I've reverted your edit to Nicolai Malko because it replaced a short but functional Wikipedia article with what appears to be a wholesale copy from a copyrighted text (even including the author's name "Arthur Jacobs"!). If you wish to reinsert your material please provide a source for it and, if necessary, evidence that you have a release from copyright. Also, please don't just delete existing material and replace it with your own, but add the new material in the context of what is there already. The material you deleted contained functioning wikilinks, but the material you replaced it with did not. Thank you. Grover cleveland 19:30, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to James Naismith, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Ckatz^chat_spy 08:23, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CSD on Rmw313

A tag has been placed on Rmw313 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

You may wish to recreate the page under your usepage instead of in the main namespace. --lifebaka (Talk - Contribs) 18:54, 22 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of The Raleigh Ringers

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on The Raleigh Ringers, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because The Raleigh Ringers seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting The Raleigh Ringers, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.
