Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Alexander Barykin, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kuybyshev (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Kievan Rus' novels

edit

Why are you changing these citations to such an unusual format? They were much better organized before, arranged by author and using a common citation method. Laszlo Panaflex (talk) 16:51, 13 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Anna, please see the Kievan Rus' talk page regarding you recent expansion of the Novels about Kievan Rus' section. Consensus regarding removing this section from the article has been reached as it strays away from the topic of an already lengthy and comprehensive article about actual history of Kievan Rus'.
Your additions have been preserved on the talk page should you wish to develop this as a category/sub-genre for historical novels/an extensive and comprehensive list. Instructions on how it needs to be developed and submitted for review at Wikipedia are provided. Should you succeed in developing it to the point of being accepted as an independent entry, we will be more than happy to add an inline link to it from the article itself. Thank you. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 04:36, 23 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your message.
Unfortunately, you seem to have misunderstood WP:ELOFFICIAL which is only about what links can be put in an External Links section at the bottom of the page.
Specifically, ELOFFICIAL states:- Official links are still subject to standard formatting requirements, such as ..... not placing links in the text of the article.
The External Links you have added in the text of the article must, therefore, be removed.

Before moving all of these links into an External Links section, you should also read the next paragraph WP:ELMINOFFICIAL which states:- Normally, only one official link is included
Adding lots of External Links is contrary to WP:LINKFARM and these will be removed - Arjayay (talk) 18:05, 21 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Nikolay Zakharov

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Nikolay Zakharov 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 credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 removed 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.
