Speedy deletion of Chocolate bloom
editA tag has been placed on Chocolate bloom, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
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.

Chocolate bloom
editHi. I restored the article since it is not nonsense after all. My apologies for not researching it adequately. However, you need to do the following otherwise the article will most likely be deleted for other reasons:
- Rewrite it in an impersonal encyclopedic manner. For example, the first sentence should read "Chocolate Bloom is the .....". You may want to look at the manual of style for tips on how to write the article.
- I'm not saying it is, but the article reads like it has been copied from elsewhere. In which case we may be violating its copyright terms. If it is copied, please rewrite the article incorporating material from several sources.
- You also need to find reliable secondary sources for the material in the article and use inline citations rather than a list of sources at the end of the article.
- Finally, put the following tag {{underconstruction]] on top of the page. That way, hopefully, you'll get some time to work on the article.
Good luck and let me know if you have specific questions. Apologies again for the delete. --RegentsPark (My narrowboat) 18:41, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- My bad. I made a mistake in writing out the underconstruction tag. I've fixed it for you. Let me know if you need anything. --RegentsPark (My narrowboat) 22:15, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
Hi. I reformatted the page so that it fits WP:MOS. Hopefully didn't mess anything up! --RegentsPark (My narrowboat) 11:24, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
I also inlined the McCarthy citation. You need to attach the remaining refs to specific statements in the text and need to specify the Seguine reference. --RegentsPark (My narrowboat) 13:39, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

editHi 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) 19:48, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
