Contested deletion

edit

This page should not be speedily deleted because it not yet complete which is why the content is so short --Hist102 (talk) 16:07, 28 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

I think you misunderstand what Wikipedia is. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. What you are writing are not encyclopedic articles. Summaries and analyses of published works are not encyclopedic in nature and are not useful here. Wikipedia is also not a web host and is not the place for the creation of essays unrelated to Wikipedia. --| Uncle Milty | talk | 16:48, 28 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
