Note to fellow contributers. If possible when submitting a set of pages try to commit articles so as not to create cyclic dependencies. The editors now have some automated detection software and will spam you for two hours about broken links. Also, don't treat initial wiki pages like a word processor and save incomplete first drafts. Some editors have little patience and will hound you a few minutes after the first entry that the page is incomplete and subject for rapid deletion, even if you post a respectable final first draft of the article within the hour.GrEp 19:52, 5 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Frank Andrews (disambiguation)

edit

Do you intend to write the article for Frank Andrews (Texan)? In your newly created page, Frank Andrews (disambiguation), you link to this person, yet Wikipedia has no article on them. Currently, Frank Andrews redirects to Frank Maxwell Andrews, which you also have listed on the page. If you do intend to write the other Frank Andrews article, then the disambiguation page should be listed on the Frank Maxwell Andrews page; if not, then the disambiguation page probably ought to be deleted. Please either take the appropriate course(s) of action, or notify me, and I will do so. Thanks. GlassCobra 00:07, 4 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

August 2007

edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. An article you recently created, Andrews & Kurth, L.L.P., may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do and please read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Andrews & Kurth, L.L.P., 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. — Coren (talk) 00:58, 4 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from articles you have created yourself, as you did with Andrews & Kurth, L.L.P.. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Thank you. — Coren (talk) 01:38, 4 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Romney straw poll

edit

It's considered POV to add tons of minute details that are considered negative without giving more detailed, balanced information. The information can stay but it needs to be rewritten and merged into a larger amount of information if we are going to add details about the straw poll. And it wasn't removed because it was POV, it was removed because it was unreferenced. All additions to the 2008 candidates articles have to have references when they're added.Joseph Antley 22:16, 16 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Andrews Kurth

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Andrews Kurth 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 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 19:53, 25 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:Newspaper image of Iowa Court of Appeals Judge Mary Tabor being accused of voter fraud.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 17:53, 10 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
