Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yid Army

edit

Hi MrStoofer, regarding the above AfD you carried out the delsort correctly but just don't place it above the page header ie. Yid Army as it can cause an error in Today's log. It is also unnecessary for you to vote delete your nomination itself is considered a delete vote unless you specify otherwise. Lastly you informed ‎Tangerines & Active Banana the two main contributors to the page but failed to inform the article creator Tecca (although he is banned) which you must do, not quiet sure why notified User:Govvy as he only made two edits to that page. They're all minor issues but I thought I'd let you know for next time, if your interested in football maybe you should join Wikipedia:WikiProject Football. Have a good day ★☆ DUCKISJAMMMY☆★ 16:04, 5 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

  Thank you for your edit to the disambiguation page FAPL. However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation do's and don'ts, you should:

  • Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
  • Use short sentence fragment descriptions, which should not end with punctuation
  • Use only one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
    • Do not add red links unless used in an article, and include a "blue link"
  • Do not pipe links—keep the full title of the article visible
  • Do not insert external links

Thank you. Widefox; talk 09:59, 21 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of List of murder laws by country

edit
 

A tag has been placed on List of murder laws by country requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either

  • disambiguates two or fewer extant Wikipedia pages and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
  • disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Proposed deletion of Alpha mom

edit
 

The article Alpha mom has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:DICDEF

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
