Speedy deletion nomination of "Dhiren Shakya"
Dhiren Shakya, a page you created, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.
You are welcome to contribute content that complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content, or remove the speedy deletion tag from the page. You can contest the deletion by clicking the "Contest this speedy deletion" button inside the speedy deletion tag. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thank you. LakesideMinersMy Talk Page 18:07, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information. For more information about the columns and categories, please consult the documentation and please get in touch on SuggestBot's talk page with any questions you might have.
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 23:07, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
March 2019
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:Binod Manandhar a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 23:32, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hi! Despite what it says above, it's probably better if you submit the draft for review and let someone else deal with the move (reviewers have a script that takes care of all the details at once). Your draft is much better than many, but would certainly benefit from more reliable sources if you can find them. Good luck! Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 23:36, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
The article Modanath Prasrit has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

- Hi - I just wanted to add a personal message to this automated notification. We can't have biographies of living people that are not referenced to any reliable sources, per our WP:BLP policy, so if you cannot find references to support the text the article will need to be deleted. You could however create a draft article instead, and only publish it as an article once you've added references.
- Note also that we must not describe his work as offensive in Wikipedia's voice. It's fine to say that it has been criticised by people as being offensive, provided that you can provide references demonstrating that, but we don't put value judgements like that in Wikipedia's voice. Cheers GirthSummit (blether) 15:30, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hello Girth Summit, Thank you for your feedback. I had this strange notion that "offensive" meant something some people see as something offensive, i.e. an inherently subjective descriptor. I did not think it could imply that wikipedia itself find the stuff offensive. I will change that asap.
- You need not worry about referencing either. I am finding quality secondary sources like in no other Nepali subject that I have looked up. And I have already added some. From next time, I won't publish any article, without adding a reference first. Sorry for the trouble. And thanks! Usedtobecool (talk) 16:03, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
- P.S. I want to make a redirect for the alternative spelling highlighted in the article. But, I don't know how. Could you please add the template if you can? I'll never need to ask again :D Thanks Again! Cheers!!
