Deletion information
edit- I am pretty new to wikipedia. What is the protocol after an afD "keep"? Does it matter if Kate does not think she is notable or does not want to have an article written about her? I guess not if she is really notable. Sorry if this is a stupid question. In general, if something gets kept after a "delete" does it ever get slated again? Would someone be so kind as to post the link to this information? I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to be asking this. Also, I would like to know how people sign their name. Thanks. If someone wants to talk about this with me on my "talk page" that would be cool if this is not the rightplace. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sisterwoman (talk • contribs)
Its a hard question regarding keeping the page if she doesn't wish it here. She could appeal to Jimbo Wales (talk · contribs) directly to have the page removed. As to the second question, I'm not sure what you are asking. If something survives an AfD discussion it could be brought to AfD again after a period of time...tho I am not sure exactly what that period is defined as. I suspect if it goes to AfD in a form very similar to what survived before it will be kept.
As to signing your name, all you have to do is type ~~~~. The wiki software will automatically turn that into a signature for you.
I don't have the link handy to the discussion of how deletion is handled, but here's a welcome message that hopefully will help give you some information.
