The article Sylvia herpolscheimer academy of performing art has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 16:32, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Gothopotamus

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Gothopotamus, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Protologism.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. — neuro^(talk) 18:55, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Kirstie-alley--fat.JPG

Thanks for uploading File:Kirstie-alley--fat.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 21:28, 22 February 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs (talk) 21:28, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Kirstie-alley--fat.JPG

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Kirstie Alley. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Logical Fuzz (talk) 18:51, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Kirstie Alley, you will be blocked from editing. jæs (talk) 17:29, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked for a period of 24 hours from editing for persistent vandalism. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below; but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Floquenbeam (talk) 18:09, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

In addition, something seems very off about this whole Sylvia Herfelwhatever stuff. I'll look inot this a little more, but if this turns out to be an elaborate hoax, I'll change this block to indefinite. Can you point me to any reliable source that mentions this woman or this school? --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:10, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, this is an elaborate hoax. Upgrade to indef. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:14, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
