Disambiguation link notification for January 8
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Faded (Alan Walker song), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Alan Walker. 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.

The article Alan Walker (DJ) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted 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}} 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Albin Johnsén
If 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 Albin Johnsén 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 a band or musician, 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. ubiquity (talk) 20:16, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

Melodifestivalen
I actually think Frans Jeppsson-Wall could very well win Melodifestivalen next saturday. Exciting. His song has that special something... BabbaQ (talk) 21:34, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
My answer: I absolutely agree that Frans Jeppsson-Wall may win this all. It is a very simple yet adorable song. It was also #1 on Sverigetopplistan which tells you something. Everybody loves it. Unfortunately though, Frans doesn't have the strong enough vocals himself to carry the song on a big live stage like Eurovision. What I really loved though is Oscar Zia's "Human" for this year's entry for Eurovision. Personally me being a sucker for happy tunes, I would love to hear songs like "Bada nakna" by Samir & Viktor, "Kizunguzungu" by SaRaha and "Håll om mig hårt" by Panetoz. But they cannot win, can they coming from andra chansen? LOL I will watch the final live in Montreal in the Saturday afternoon. Can't wait. Plus I would be happy if Frans does win werldwayd (talk) 19:17, 8 March 2016 (UTC)

Only less than 24 hours before the Melodifestivalen final. Exciting. I think Frans will most likely win. I know you have your favourites, and I have mine.. It could go either way.--BabbaQ (talk) 21:31, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

Also you notice the international jury picked Oscar Zia "Human" as top song by a slight margin, but Swedish votes were for Frans. werldwayd (talk) 21:59, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
- Yes by one point. For a moment I though Oscar could take the win, but fortunately (in my opinion) Frans won. It will be interesting to see what happens in Stockholm. I think it could go two ways, either a win or he will totally fail to get high points and end up like 25th or similar. --BabbaQ (talk) 22:20, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Linking to pages that have not updated
You have over 230,000 contributions to Wikipedia and you think it's acceptable practice to use the singlechart or albumchart templates for countries whose Hung Medien pages have not updated? Any other sensible user would revert your edits. You still don't seem to grasp the point of a temporary reference. It's meant to be temporary because content added to Wikipedia needs to be verifiable. This overrides any necessity to archive or unwillingness to have to edit the page once swedishcharts.com for instance has updated. Please stop replacing temporary sources before they've updated. This isn't a matter of perspective; you are misleading people by linking to a page that hasn't updated and are in the wrong. Thank you. Ss112 11:16, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion
Hi, you added {{db}} to Neev (disambguation). This template should never be used without any parameters - if a page is to be speedily deleted then there always has to be a reason for it. Usually one of the reason-specific speedy deletion templates should be used - you may wish to familiarise yourself with the criteria for speedy deletion. For unusual cases where no reason-specific template adequately covers the reason, use
{{db|reason text}}

Hallo, re this edit: disambiguation links, which I take to include hatnotes like this, come first per WP:ORDER.

"2013–present"
Hello. Should I use "2013–present" or "from 2013/since 2013" form? The first one is bad in polish (sounds artificial), idk how it is in english. Eurohunter (talk) 21:55, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
- Just I wanted made it clear. Thanks. Eurohunter (talk) 07:16, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- I decided to develope Basshunter article. Do you know how I can add second language to reference? Why I can't use "rowspan" with "won" or "nom" template? The last question is how I can add archived link under archive.is? Eurohunter (talk) 07:47, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- So I added a lot of new content. Sources will come soon. Could you check it? It would be very helpfull for next new content. Eurohunter (talk) 22:55, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- Hey. Do you saw my lastests messages? I'm bit stucked. Eurohunter (talk) 06:59, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- I have next question. Someone corrected sentence for "Basshunter has sold more than six million albums and singles.". I'm not sure it is correct, because it looks like no encyclpedic style. He didn't sold it personally, it has sold by shops for sure. Should be somethink like "Basshunter's singles and albums has sold more than six million albums and singles."? Eurohunter (talk) 07:04, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- Would be nice. Eurohunter (talk) 13:26, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- There is a lot of versions of albums. Almost every album has been released in different versions. Should I keep it or cut? If single been charted in further positions should I write which positions it was exacly or just write it was charted there without said positions. Eurohunter (talk) 18:49, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- Btw. why some certyfications status are written with capital letter and some small letter. Eurohunter (talk) 18:53, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

- Majour album versions like extended album with new tracks should be highlighted. But no need for special country releases. For singles, no need for specific peak positions except in prominent markets. For other markets though, just mention the country. The peaks are in the discography anyway. werldwayd (talk) 18:55, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- I have now completed a massive correction of the Basshunter page. It still needs more cleaning but at least is presentable for now. I will go back to the text again and make some more improvements tomorrow. werldwayd (talk) 20:01, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- Great job. I will add next informations soon. Discography. It's just 16 countries (14 counties and 2 US lists) and full HD resolution is a standard or even just move the page on small screen. It would be needed to delete Dutch too. Eurohunter (talk) 20:14, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- What about Belgium and Norway? Eurohunter (talk) 20:46, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- I have removed the French belgian market as secondary. But I am reluctant for Norway as it is Scandinavian country the power base of Basshunter plus that many of his singles charted very high in Norway. I have removed also Switzerland instead werldwayd (talk) 22:47, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for edits and "I Promised Myself", I never saw it. I cancelled one of your edits, becaise it changed title of remixed song. I have a few question yet. Do you know how I can add archive.is as archiveurl? It not work so it is bit problem. Should I add informations about Japanese version of LOL <^^,)>? It include 2 music videos. There is yet special polish version of Now You're Gone album, and it include 9 music videos on additional DVD disc. Eurohunter (talk) 07:16, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- The archive.is does not work because it is not allowed in Wikipedia and all links that show that are being blacklisted. This was after some discussion about how archive.is works. See policy Wikipedia:Using archive.is. It is still ok to use though one of the alias domains which have not been blocked like archive.li Regarding special country releases, I am not a fan of making it as something unique. It is well known for example that almost all Japanese bound releases have something extra not found in the originals, like some bonus tracks, most of the time a different album cover artwork etc. But this practice is so widespread in music industry that Japanese releases have no relevance really. But Polish version is quite unique as it has many extra videos and has a DVD version to add, so its worth mentioning in the section. Having said that, when an article becomes more than usual length, this keeps most readers except for the very obvious fan leave the page quicker without going to the detailed sections. Discgraphies are more convenient for this as they do not involve reading and all the hits are there in chronological order. The reader of the main article wants to know essential interesting facts and development of career not details of every release of album and single. Even in the references section, what is essential are links to actual articles about an artist, not specific links to peak positions certain releases reached except for the significant number 1 hits. werldwayd (talk) 08:07, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- I understand but I think there are two different things. One thing is massive replacing action happens and one thing is use it because it is needed. Archive.li look like mirror, right? I'm bit confusted with it. I preferer Web Archive but sometimes some sites blocking archiving their sites through robots.txt file. Btw. I have some informations to add and it is problematic because it are things which aren't finishes. Just, there are sources sayng "he consider" etc. Anyway, you will see. At the end I will ask. Are you on Steam? It woiuld be easier to talking. Eurohunter (talk) 16:45, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- I understand. But Archive.li is allowed for now. So it's the better solution to avoid problems with archive.is Youmay consider adding from info not directly related to one particular album or song but in general about him (always with sources). In answer to communicating, I don't have Steam or others for that matter. But you can always use my personal e-mail related to my website http://www.1wxrld.com which is 1wxrld@gmail.com You can also send suggestions from Poland or Europee about new hits I may consider for my charts. werldwayd (talk) 16:54, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- Could you tell me what to do if website is avaiable in English and for example Swedish? As I understand I can't add them both to parameter like German and French, just Swedish or nothing? Eurohunter (talk) 09:38, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- If it is more or less the same content in bot languages, then for English Wikipedia the English link would be preferable of course. If Swedish Wikipedia, then the Swedish link. But I'm not sure you are using these bilingual pages as an in text references or as an external link? werldwayd (talk) 13:35, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- I don't mean link but just language paremeter like "in English and "Swedish" in bracket. Eurohunter (talk) 13:47, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- I would do it separately by adding (in English) / (in Swedish) for example werldwayd (talk) 13:50, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- So it should be like "language=(in English), (in Swedish)"? Eurohunter (talk) 17:16, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

- Best is in a separate section. I have created what I called "Activities and Philantrophy" immediately after the Personal life section. Add the information there. werldwayd (talk) 13:08, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- There is already "Other public activities" section and subsections. What about exemple of use different languages in parameter, which I showed in lastets message link yesterday? Eurohunter (talk) 14:39, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- Sorry I didn't see that earlier. In that section you can add charity as I have done. Plus add section for Management and Agencies for example. I have made that a majour section to deparate it from the albums sections as well. DJing and Songwriting deserved its own majour section as well. By the way, thanks for adding all such details. It creates more interest than just album and single releases. Wish many other artists had such dedicated following. By the way, I have been spending some good time in listening to a lot of materials from Basshunter while working on the page werldwayd (talk) 15:26, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- It's hard to say because DJing and songwritting is a part of carrer. What about budget information? What about part: "He couldn't also publish his songs in the internet anymore, so he started create video blogs. His budget before 2010 it is about 800 dollars."? He sriously couldn't do it after comercial success and he started producing video blogs. He started publish his music again in 2012/2013. It's not end yet. There is some things and sources to add yet. I think I looking for made it Good Article. Eurohunter (talk) 15:36, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- His own album and single output is totally different from his producing and songwriting activities for others. So it does deserve its own section. But if you feel it should be part of his career section, go ahead. I have no objection. As for his budget before 2010 being about 800 dollars, good for him, but that is approaching border of fancruft, I think. It's just simply not needed if you ask me. As for good article status, all the power to you, but frankly I am not that optimistic about it as the article is far from that for sure and neither my or your edits will help it I'm afraid. LOL werldwayd (talk) 15:48, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- You missed some things again:) "I added exempple. Tell it is correct for sure." and what about with that sentence about publishing music? Btw. I can add to albums how long it was produced or when it was started. Eurohunter (talk) 17:13, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- Part of your edit was later reversed by some other colleague. So the language reference there is gone now if you look at it. For album details, yes, how the albums developed and what time frame was involved is a very good info to add. Some albums take a long time of cumulative work to be relaized. You can also add some info about the "Basshunter style", because he clearly has his definitive recognizable style that can be spotted in his singles, plus for many others copying his style. werldwayd (talk) 17:51, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

Eurohunter (talk) 17:27, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

- No need at all to add, as the ages of parents and brother have no relevance on his career. If the brother is involved in any significant career, you may just remark as younger brother or older brother. werldwayd (talk) 21:51, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
- Looks like questions never end. Where I should placed comma? Before or after quotation marks? I saw even different types in quotation mark aticle. Eurohunter (talk) 11:09, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
- Usually, commas would be after a quotations. And since there are many types of quotations used, depending on where you come from, me myself, I usually use uniformly ' and " for both opening and closing quotations and convert the others to those existing two. werldwayd (talk) 13:35, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Its been awhile
Hello Werldwayd!
It has been awhile and I am still working on Draft:Alex Gilbert. Take a look and let me know your opinion. Do you think this article will be notable anytime soon? --DmitryPopovRU (talk) 05:15, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
Hello! User:Werldwayd I have recently added a new source for Draft:Alex Gilbert. It looks like it was published today. You can have a look here! [1] I am working on a version for the Russian Wikipedia but it was deleted, claiming it was wrongly written etc. I am going to give it another go later next week. --DmitryPopovRU (talk) 21:54, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
- The article you quote is great and it adds credibility to I'm Adopted You should add this for sure. I am worried about the Russian Wikipedia being turned down. You should launch it only after thorough editing and more or less a perfect translation of the English one with all the references. I don't know why it was "wrongly written". Meaning what exactly? Was it a proper accurate grammatically correct translation? You should be careful to publish it only if its perfect. No need to rush simply just because you want to see a page in Russian. werldwayd (talk) 00:12, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
Hi werldwayd . But can we use that source? As some looks like it was supplied by the subject himself. Yes and it wasn't a perfect article. Was my problem! Some of the words were badly translated. That was my fault. I had someone help with it too. They didn't help. I simplified it so it was shorter, missed some words etc. I will make a draft and work on that! Easy! --DmitryPopovRU (talk) 00:51, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
- You can use it as a source. Don't worry. This is just a draft anyway. For Russian article, please don't use their draft system or else you will end up with a situation like the one on English Wikipedia. Rather work on your own user page. Ask for somebody else with good experience on Russian Wikipedia to help you around and prepare a real decent article. Save all work on a page like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:DmitryPopovRU/article and work there. When you feel its perfect you launch it all at once on Russian Wikipedia. I feel you publishing in Russian was too soon on a work in progress article. That's why it was turned down. A second refusal will put your entire Alex Gilbert work in jeopardy. werldwayd (talk) 01:37, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
I know for sure. I don't want to put that work into trouble! Thank You! I see you also did a draft on your sandbox. But for notability that new source, it can't be used can it? What is the rule on this? The entire article has so much coverage that it is starting to look like a Cite Overkill! Thanks werldwayd! --DmitryPopovRU (talk) 02:03, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
- Please do use the article about the interest of the Queen and her support. It seems to me her majesty knows a real issue when she sees one, unlike our Wikipedia editors who think they know better, but they really don't. All they're doing is suppressing a real cause that needs to be highlighted for some technical editing issues or bluffing themselves that this is not a note-worthy issue and how much good Alex's campaign has done in impacting many peoples' lives. Me, I think Alex Gilbert's work is a very important matter and he does it with so much charm and vulnerability and great transparency it sometimes makes me tear up when I read about it. Regarding working from my own user page, I do it a lot as I keep articles for further development away from immediate scrutiny had I done it through the draft pages which have turned out to be a quagmire and no-go area for so many well-meaning novice editors. It is more a hindrance than a help. About Russian article, don't launch it unless it is PERFECT from all points of view. We want to see it permanently there werldwayd (talk) 12:49, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
For sure! That is true! Thank You I really appreciate it! :) --DmitryPopovRU (talk) 19:12, 14 May 2016 (UTC) --DmitryPopovRU (talk) 19:12, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello Werldwayd,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Tara-Jean Popowich 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. Prof. Mc (talk) 18:27, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Rise-Up-Colors-of-Peace.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Rise-Up-Colors-of-Peace.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content.

Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 19:50, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

Re:Tokyo Square
Tokyo Square
I thank you for your comprehensive edits in Tokyo Square. So I think it is the most opportune time as a well-informed enthusiast of the band that you are... For me Tokyo Square is lovingly known for it's version of "That Is Love", probably not their own song, but certainly their version is one of the most loved. Yet I don't find any mention of the huge success of "That Is Love" on the Wikipedia page. Here is the song I am referring to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPuPMK0BKFg which I dedicate to you for your excellent work on the page. werldwayd (talk) 19:09, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
-- Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I was going to talk to you about it too! TS was very big in Vietnam, my home country, and I'm also a fan of their music since childhood.
My whole entire life, I thought "That is Love", "Say You Will", "Caravan of Life"...etc... were Tokyo Square's songs, because they were very so in VN, but according to this, they said that Max Surin (the lead singer) had only appeared on the album Class Act I ("Within You'll Remain", "Silent Talk") and Class Act II ("Oriental City", "Without Your Love") before going solo. His solo albums also included Mandarin tracks that were translated to English.
Elizabeth Dana, later filled in new members for the group, but according to their biography, it only says that this group had only performed in Japan and didn't mention anything about recording albums nor songs.
However, in "That is Love", "Say You Will", "Caravan of Life"...etc..., you can really identify Surin's voice, right? In fact, Surin was claimed to be a "musical legend" in Singapore. "That is Love", "Say You Will", "Caravan of Life" were all such big hits, so how could only Max Surin be claimed to be a "legend" while the band is called a "one-hit wonder"?
So to my conclusion, "That is Love", "Say You Will", "Caravan of Life"...etc... maybe are not Tokyo Square's though, they're maybe Surin's songs from his albums. When I found out about this yesterday, I was totally shocked too. But the truth is can't find any reliable sources about these tracks nor about Surin's albums nor anything about other tracks that the group had recorded.
I'm pleased to hear that you like the new page, I'm still editing it though. But please help and correct me if anything is wrong. I'm so so so grateful that there's another TS fan like me here in Wikipedia! Beyoncetan (talk) 22:14, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for your response. Yes I love Tokyo Square and many of the songs I associate with Tokyo Square. I am also surprised That Is Love is not on a Tokyo Square album although https://vi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo_Square thunks it is. By the way, I don't know if we should mention on the English page that Tokyo Square is a "one-hit wonder" band. I think they have more than one significant hit. It's just that "Within You'll Remain" is so prominent the rest become less known. I think the "one hit wonder" note in our article should be removed. Plus, since Max Surin has so much solo work, I think he should have a separate article and not just a redirect like https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Max_Surin&redirect=no It is an opportune time for you to do this article about Max. You have a lot of stuff on Tokyo Square page, so you can move many of the materials there to that new page and leave a summary on Tokyo Square page. werldwayd (talk) 20:42, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
- I actually don't know... I don't think Max Surin has that much sources to develop an article though (we don't even have ANY information about when his birthday is, his discography, or his recorded tracks). And by the way, I really truly believe that the four songs that I listed on the article, unfortunately, are the ONLY four tracks that the band have. They were said to not even have one album. Like I said, before going solo, Surin and the band had just appeared together on 'Class Acts 1 & 2 (the 4 tracks that I listed), this article even count the times he had appeared on music records when he released his first solo album. I mean in "That is Love", "Say You Will", "Caravan of Life"...etc... you can really identify Surin's voice right? So how can these songs belong to the band when Surin had already left the group? After leaving, Surin is the only person who is reported to be active in recording music. While the band later only performed and had some drugs and money issues. And the Wikipedia link that you gave me, that was from Vietnam, my country is very weak about the information of the group, that's mostly why I feel the need to write this page. :) Beyoncetan (talk) 02:45, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. AntiCompositeNumber (Leave a message) 18:54, 22 August 2016 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Scotty Granger
The article Scotty Granger has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Reality contestant that doesn't meet WP:MUSIC. Can't seem to find a place to merge however, as it can be merged to multiple articles.
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. Prevan (talk) 14:31, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Barnabé Brisson (engineer)
If 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 Barnabé Brisson (engineer) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www-history.mcs.st-and.ac.uk/Biographies/Brisson.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
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. — Diannaa (talk) 20:23, 31 August 2016 (UTC)

Would you mind putting Template:R from surname on any newly created ones? If they aren't tracked then they tend to stagnate for years.

Speedy deletion nomination of Hot Desert Knights
If 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 Hot Desert Knights 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 a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, 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. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo).

Proposed deletion of Ham and cheese (disambiguation)
The article Ham and cheese (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- This is an unnecessary disambiguation as hatnotes link the sandwich and the film. The see also is also unnecessary as those are related to the sandwich, and are correctly linked there.
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. -- Tavix (talk) 16:38, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
