Disambiguation link notification for July 19

Hi. When you recently edited John Doyle (judge), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Solicitor General (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Rowing topics ?

I gather you mainly write on SA topics but sometimes on rowing topics ? I've been writing on some Vic & NSW clubs lately, best summarised here and wanted to bring those to your attention in case you wanted to add any club logos such as you did for Yarra Yarra ? But also I have another question just on the off-chance: don't suppose you have any knowledge as to how editors create those rowing blades such as these ? Or perhaps have come across any contributor who likes to make them ? My regds -Sticks66 00:00, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

The article you started December 2009‎

Hi Ozdaren, currently I found the article Unisuit (rowing) to be very outdated, checked the links inside and none of them worked, basically I think it's more a catalogue entry & stub than an encyclopedic article. Do you like to update it and write a full, notable(!) article? Then just remove the "proposed deletion" tag I entered and do it. :) If not, you could copy relevant content to the article "rowing" for ex. Please don't feel personally offended by my proposal! Cheers --Trofobi (talk) 13:11, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi Trofobi, unfortunately I've only just found your proposal. The article has since been deleted. It's a shame as I would have been happy to have expanded it. Ozdaren (talk) 12:54, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Nice to see that you would take care of it. Why don't you just ask the deleting admin to put it back to your userspace, because it has been in a really deletable condition all the time (wrong lemma, no relevance shown, only commercial links, etc.). Then you can work on it there until it's fit for launching into the namespace. --Trofobi (talk) 14:46, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Unisuit (rowing)

The article Unisuit (rowing) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

see above

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
