A page you created, Steve lee elliott, 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 which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Steve lee elliott‎, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a ((hangon)) tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Accurizer (talk) 00:18, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Your test on Steve Elliott (footballer) worked, and has been removed. If you would like to experiment further, please use the sandbox. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. So#Why 12:15, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have taken care about the Steve Elliott (footballer) somewhat, making some changes. You are welcome to make any changes needed but I would ask you to read WP:EDIT and WP:MOS first if possible to keep a consistent style. For example, internal links to Wikipedia pages use [[ ]], external links use [ ]( i.e. you should be using [[Lewis FC]] instead of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewes_FC]). I am sure you will be able to find out about editing correctly and if you have any questions just ask, here or at my talk page. Have a nice day. So#Why 12:34, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:EDIT, it will really help you. Regards. --So#Why 13:03, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

i have removed the notice as it said i could if giving a good reason .firstly i am learning about using wikipedia which is very complicated. also your rules state Competitors who have competed in a fully professional league, or a competition of equivalent standing in a non-league sport such as swimming, golf or tennis. Competitors who have competed at the highest level in amateur sports.[9]

the last part is obviously very relevant playing purely amateur level and also the bit of playing the the equivalent standing of non league. the blue square premier conference national is the highest level of non league football in the uk.
