Speedy deletion nomination of Tourism Industry in the Dominican Republic
editHello Sarahmander,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Tourism Industry in the Dominican Republic for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.
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. Nsteffel (talk) 22:41, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Metal Solutions
editIf 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 Metal Solutions requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about 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. JMHamo (talk) 11:36, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Spring Farm CARES
editIf 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 Spring Farm CARES, 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 seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
- 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.

Regarding your citations and formatting
editWhen citing online sources, please include the link to the original website. This makes it easier to verify that you are not plagiarizing the original source.
Also, your additions have manual line breaks in mid-sentence. Please don't do that if at all possible, as it looks horrible on computers.
Ian.thomson (talk) 19:16, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
- Really, your current citations are incomplete without a link to the web page. In the article Lee Center, New York, you cite
"Town of Lee, Oneida County, New York." Town of Lee, Oneida County, New York. N.p., n.d. Web. 09 May 2016.
This really does not tell us what website you were citing at all. The only conclusion I can draw is that you were maybe citing some page on this website (if I'm right, it's just a lucky guess and in no way an indication that your citation was by any means adequate), but we don't know which makes the citation kinda useless.

Proposed deletion of Cat versus dog people
editThe article Cat versus dog people has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Seems like a case of WP:NOTESSAY, and besides that there already exists the articles Human–canine bond and Human interaction with cats that cover the topics presented here
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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Last Unicorn music store
editHello Sarahmander,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Last Unicorn music store 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. Onel5969 TT me 16:10, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
