Yacveria

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I see that you are the creater of the page Yacveria -- I am just wondering, is this an actual country/state/empire in a fictional work or is it a test page? If it is a test page, please use the Sandbox for future testing. If it is an actual fictional country, would you please indicate what fictional work it may be found in. Cheers, Black Falcon 18:56, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Yacveria, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Yacveria

Black Falcon, you are quite right. Yacveria is merely a concept intended to prove a theory a friend and I were discussing. Unfortunately another work collegue thought it would be funny to try and build a Yacveria country page. *Note this is my account - I'm assuming he found the login details on my desk, I'll have words when he arrives.

I have set the page up for Speedy Deletion - It could have been a useful tool in that we could gage reaction. But I'm sure there are more suitable places to test theories. I've noticed a message from you regarding Sandbox - Is that a page open to experimentation? Citizenerased2000 08:32, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

The Wikipedia:Sandbox is open for experimentation, but I think it is deleted every hour. You can create a personal sandbox by typing "[[/Sandbox]]" anywhere on your user page (only the part in quotes). As far as I know, you can replace the title "Sandbox" with anything you like (with the possible exception of special characters). Happy editing, Black Falcon 19:04, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
