Your recent edits

edit

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 22:06, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Erotographomania

edit

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Erotographomania, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. 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.

I've suggested that it should be copied to Wiktionary, as it is a dictionary definition. I've removed your signature, as signatures should not be added to articles. --Snigbrook (talk) 22:40, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Minor edits

edit

Please remember to mark your edits as minor if (and only if) they genuinely are minor edits (see Help:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearranging of text without modifying content should be flagged as a 'minor edit.' Thank you. Bart133 t c @ How's my driving? 23:02, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

The hangon template

edit

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed that you recently added a {{hangon}} template to an article, Microgloma. In order for an administrator to evaluate whether the article should be speedy deleted or not, we request that you provide reasoning, on the article's talk page, for why it should remain. Thank you.

Nonsense of Blood viscosity

edit
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Blood viscosity, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Blood viscosity provides no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Blood viscosity, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 23:10, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
It does not seem like the proper tag was placed. Emeseee (talk) 23:19, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Please stop your disruptive editing, such as the edit you made to Larry Biittner. If your vandalism continues, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.    SIS  23:22, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits, such as the one you made to Dangle. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you will be blocked from editing.    SIS  23:23, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Teaching strategy

edit
A tag has been placed on Teaching strategy requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.    SIS  23:39, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to User talk:Strikeout Sister. Fieldday-sunday (talk) 23:39, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Whoa, slow down a little. I wouldn't call that edit to my Talk page vandalism.    SIS  23:54, 27 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
