A tag has been placed on Krewe of Petronius requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.kreweofpetronius.net/history.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 deleted 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.

Welcome!

I'm a newbee, but very excited to contribute to Wikipedia! I just got thanked for updating Southern Decadence in my notifications, but don't really know how to respond... how can I respond? Is this on the TALK page, but which one.

Nilbogg (talk) 16:02, 27 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

That depends on what exactly you want to say in your response. Generally I don't think responding to thanks is necessary. If you want to leave a message for the user who thanked you, that user's talk page at User talk:RA0808 is a good spot. If you want to leave a note that's relevant to the improvement of the article, then the article's talk page at Talk:Southern Decadence would likely be better because there other editors interested in that article will also see it. If you want to notify RA0808 and aren't writing on their own talk page, you can start your message with the code {{ping|RA0808}} (including the curly brackets). Please remember to sign your talk page messages with four tildes (~~~~). Huon (talk) 18:13, 27 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Krewe of Yuga

edit

Hello Nilbogg,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Krewe of Yuga for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Proposed deletion of Krewe of Armeinius

edit
 

The article Krewe of Armeinius has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails notability guidelines at WP:GROUP, no notability claimed under WP:GNG.

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. Ifnord (talk) 17:27, 7 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Nilbogg (talk) 17:46, 7 May 2019 (UTC) I have added an introductory paragraph for Armeinius. I hope this solves the GRP problem.Reply

Michael Meads moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Michael Meads, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. ... discospinster talk 20:01, 26 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. I have worked on this. I hope there are enough sources now. I'm hoping to create several artists pages for the future. Nilbogg (talk) 20:45, 26 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
