The article Rickey Shane Page has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Doesn't meet WP:GNG. No significant coverage in reliable independent sources.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

New Page Reviewer Newsletter
Backlog update:
- The new page backlog is currently at 12713 pages. Please consider reviewing even just a few pages each day! If everyone helps out, it will really put a dent in the backlog.
- Currently the backlog stretches back to March and some pages in the backlog have passed the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing some of them!
Outreach and Invitations:
- If you know other editors with a good understanding of Wikipedia policy, invite them to join NPP by dropping the invitation template on their talk page with:
{{subst:NPR invite}}. Adding more qualified reviewers will help with keeping the backlog manageable.
New Year New Page Review Drive
- A backlog drive is planned for the start of the year, beginning on January 1st and running until the end of the month. Unique prizes will be given in tiers for both the total number of reviews made, as well as the longest 'streak' maintained.
- Note: quality reviewing is extremely important, please do not sacrifice quality for quantity.
General project update:
- ACTRIAL has resulted in a significant increase in the quality of new submissions, with noticeably fewer CSD, PROD, and BLPPROD candidates in the new page feed. However, the majority of the backlog still dates back to before ACTRIAL started, so consider reviewing articles from the middle or back of the backlog.
- The NPP Browser can help you quickly find articles with topics that you prefer to review from within the backlog.
- To keep up with the latest conversation on New Pages Patrol or to ask questions, you can go to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers and add it to your watchlist.
If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, go here. — TonyBallioni (talk) 20:27, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

Tambon articles
I noticed you created several articles on the Thai subdistrict by copying from one template article. However, for exactly that work I have already programmed my own software to create such article stubs - for example the new version for Thep Mongkhon is what my software creates in seconds. If you have a Windows and Visual Studio, you could download and build that software yourself (see [1]) - or you could also simply create even more stubby articles and I will fill them myself as soon as I notice them, or just request them to be created by me. andy (talk) 10:46, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
- Hi. I'd also like to ask about the source you're using for the tambon names. I've corrected Thep Mongkhon and Ahi Subdistrict, since the original article titles didn't agree with the official spellings published by the Royal Society.[2] (On an unrelated note, I'm not sure if you're aware that the template documentation for {{Talk header}} actually recommends that it "should not be added to otherwise empty talk pages"—pointing it out just in case.) --Paul_012 (talk) 20:07, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
- There are sadly several different versions of romanization recommendations by the Royal Institute floating around on websites, the different versions often not dated. I am mostly using the 2007 book version. When I doubt, checking the Thai Wikipedia is also good - @Potapt: works a lot on the transcriptions and tries to keep the Amphoe article there up to date. Both the 2007 book and Thai Wikipedia suggest "A Hi", where as "Thep Mongkhon" actually was Thepphamonkhon in 2007, but Thai Wikipedia now uses Thep Mongkhon. andy (talk) 22:04, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
- I have to admit that I leave the transcription of อาฮี as "A Hi" in Thai Wikipedia because I have been clueless about its meaning and etymology. After doing some googling I discovered that อาฮี is a corrupted form of a clause uttered by a person in a folktale, which doesn't sound convincing to me personally. As it seems like the form as it is now has no meaning in Thai language, I think it can be regarded altogether as a single word/morpheme and can be transcribed as "Ahi" without the space in between, like the Royal Society recently suggests. --Potapt (talk) 15:42, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Joe Gacy
Hello, Fixer88. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Joe Gacy".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Nikki♥311 08:30, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 4
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Honda CY50, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Generator and Accumulator (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:33, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
Berry O'Kelly Historic District
Hi, thanks for starting Berry O'Kelly Historic District article, which came up on my watchlist I suppose because it must link to some article that I created. I added the NRHP nomination document as a reference, and a few facts from it, but I have not attempted to summarize it. It would be great if you could use the NRHP document or other sources to expand more and give some overview about the district. Anyhow, thanks and keep up the good work! --Doncram (talk) 14:59, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

Ways to improve Ho, Denmark
Hi, I'm Boleyn. Fixer88, thanks for creating Ho, Denmark!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please make your ref clear - it needs the name of the book and the author's first name.

CASSIOPEIA(talk) 07:56, 3 July 2018 (UTC)This seems to be a straightforward, rather poor, translation of the corresponding article from German Wikipedia.
Please note that you must not just translate an article from another Wikipedia and present it as if it was all your own work. That is stealing the intellectual property of the Wikipedia editors who created the German version. The text you have created needs some cleaning up - did you use a machine translation? Sentences like " In 2005, she jumped during maternity leave by Daniela Lager for half a year[1] at the news magazine 10vor10." need a bit more work. Have you checked whether the references are all still valid, and whether they support the text? You could at least have translated the months of the reference dates.
Please read Wikipedia:Translation#How_to_translate before translating any more articles. Thanks. PamD 17:58, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

Korolivka, Zalishchyky Raion listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Korolivka, Zalishchyky Raion. Since you had some involvement with the Korolivka, Zalishchyky Raion redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. The Banner talk 09:00, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
Talk pages
I've noticed that you've been adding the {talkpage} template to various article's talk pages. I'm only familiar with the template being used on pages with a lot of views, but I've only seen you add it to recently created articles. Is the {talkpage} template supposed to be on every talk page? Thanks for the help, Pagliaccious (talk) 00:46, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
Actually, I should've done my research before asking. Per WP:TALK#CREATE, talk pages should not be created only to add the {talkpage} or {talk header} template. Only talk pages with discussions need the template. Sorry about that. But if you'd like, instead of adding the {talkpage} template you could add WikiProject boxes with importance and class ratings, which would be really helpful. Thanks!

Nissan Land Glider
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Nissan electric vehicles into Nissan Land Glider. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required.--S Philbrick(Talk) 14:33, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. U1 quattro TALK 07:43, 20 March 2019 (UTC) The article Danièle Patz has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Wgolf (talk) 20:41, 22 March 2019 (UTC) |
