  A tag has been placed on Elvijs Putniņš requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article and put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this article should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use deletion review instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you.

Articles for deletion nomination of Elvijs Putniņš

edit

I have nominated Elvijs Putniņš, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Elvijs Putniņš. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

AfD nomination of Elvijs Putniņš

edit
 

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Elvijs Putniņš. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Elvijs Putniņš (2nd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:07, 5 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Why did you re-instate the nonsense about Pahars having died in 2007? Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 22:31, 16 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

PROD's

edit

May I draw your attention to WP:FPL. It clearly lists the Cypriot First League with a source as a non-fully pro league. While the Latvian Higher league is not listed, its fully pro status must be established to grant notability, so unless you can provide a source that confirms that the Latvian Higher League is fully pro, the claim that it provides notability is invalid.

License tagging for File:FB Gulbene 200.png

edit

Thanks for uploading File:FB Gulbene 200.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 16:07, 22 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
