Hello, Ngozi osadebe, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Olabisi ugbebor, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Hi, Graham @Graham87: I am the facilitator of Nnamdi Azikiwe Library edit-a-thon which is currently on. Almost all our editors have been blocked as a result of an editing error committed by one of us User:IfyObim. None of us is in support of what she did and we have asked her to leave the group. Please do us a favor by unblocking our members as it is affecting our 2019 edit-a-thon adversely.

Speedy deletion nomination of Olabisi ugbebor

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Olabisi ugbebor, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

  • It is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. (See section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Wikipedia has standards for the minimum necessary information to be included in short articles; you can see these at Wikipedia:Stub. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
  • It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Wikipedia infoboxes

edit

Hey! This is Alex, I presented yesterday on the LD4-Wikidata group call regarding Wikipedia infoboxes. I saw your message that I was speaking too fast. I'm sorry I couldn't get around to addressing it, since we were short on time. I'm happy to go over any part of the material again and answer questions, if you need. Let me know on your/my talk page or shoot me an email (jya.jung@utoronto.ca)! Utl jung (talk) 14:15, 6 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm JalenFolf. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Deforestation in Nigeria, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jalen Folf (talk) 21:44, 10 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thank you very much. I am trying to clean up the ariticle which includes merging some articles. I love your contribution to make the article better. Thank you so much again.Ngozi osadebe (talk) 13:26, 11 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
