- Wikipedia is not for things you made up one day. You have no "right" to post fiction or to pretend that you've created a micronation. Please do not post this kind of material again. Also, you've made the jump to "fascism" remarkably fast: it's not generally appreciated, particularly from editors who've posted obviously inappropriate material. If you do that again, you may expect your editing privileges (for that is what they are, not "rights") removed. Acroterion (talk) 20:49, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Well it was not made in one day, it is real,it is not imaginary, and there are many fictional things on Wikipedia,like the character Tom Sawyer for example. But you can even check our website it's www.shrebial.co.cc it's just a passion/hobby for my friends and I . Molossia has a page,it's a micro nation and do you even know what a micro nation is? According to this website it is... Micronations—sometimes also referred to as model countries and new country projects—are entities that claim to be independent nations or states but which are not recognized by world governments or major international organizations. These nations often exist only on paper, on the Internet, or in the minds of their creators.
So I ask of you to please reopen it. And also, how is this inappropriate at all whatsoever? Sincerely, Shreb447
- Thanks for the polite response, I appreciate it and will give a longer explanation. When I was a kid, I might have tried posting about the fictional nation I created when I was a kid - it's not an unusual thing to do at a certain age, and it's fun. Two of my friends made up their own places and we negotiated treaties and compared governance. They weren't suitable for Wikipedia either. So I do indeed know what a micronation is, having had one (this was pre-Internet, of course, so pretty much the only people who could know were the three of us). The key issue is notability - there are probably hundreds of micronations that exist in the minds of their creators and nowadays somewhere where they've posted them on the Internet, but since they aren't notable they can't be included in Wikipedia. Take a look at the general notability guidelines, and read WP:NOT again. Just because you've made something up and posted it on the Internet does not make it real, or suitable for inclusion in a global encyclopedia. Molossia has been covered in books and the Chicago Tribune. It produces stamps and has tourism. Maybe one day your micronation will be notable and suitable for inclusion, but it isn't there yet. To use another of your examples, Tom Sawyer is one of the most notable works of American literature, the key word being notable. I think you've done something good and cool, but please remember that Wikipedia has a threshold for inclusion; we see this kind of entry now and then, and unless it's got coverage on essentially a national scale, like Molossia, it can't be included.

But could atleast get the file of it back some how,not back onto wikipedia but just back to my computer somehow? And I'm deeply immaturity for my first post in talk, as I get very defensive and that is an issue I need to work on, thank you.
