March is as likely a date as any, but my information is that no precise date has been set and no precise wording has been determined. The party in favor of integration took two seats yesterday, and the party against only took one. My personal bet is that the referendum will never occur.—Kww(talk) 23:38, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My information comes from IM and e-mail with friends. That's why I haven't added things to articles: no reliable sourcing.—Kww(talk) 23:44, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.nu.nl/algemeen/2168623/regeringspartij-par-wint-curaao.html is in Dutch, I'm afraid, but confirms 2 seats for UPB, 1 for ADP, viewed as a setback for the pro-referendum forces. It speaks of the current Bonaire coalition (of the ADP and the LPK) having a desire to organize a referendum, not of a referendum actually having been scheduled.—Kww(talk) 23:42, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Hiro Muramoto. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hiro Muramoto. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:04, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, here is my User:Morenooso/Carmelita González workspace userspace file. I break out my citations as a line item almost every time so it makes it easy for me to backtrack or add them to other sections. I saw another editor build an article like this and it made sense to me. You can use that file to crosscheck the refs. ----moreno oso (talk) 01:05, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article James Paisley has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:POLITICIAN.

While all 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 ((dated prod)) 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 ((dated prod)) will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Mufka ^{(u) (t) (c)} 12:09, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have nominated James Paisley, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/James Paisley. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. -- Mufka ^{(u) (t) (c)} 00:01, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 21:41, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article Fernando Toranzo Fernández has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia: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 ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

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 about one hour you added almost 70 entries to my watch list, and I suspect this may not be the end of it.

Hi Scanlan. I see you got started with Hubert Schlafly and have placed an ((underconstruction)) tag there. Since it appears you have been editing in other areas, are you planning on expanding that article? By the way, I have recently received an email stating that three photos of Schlafly will potentially be released under CC-BY-SA. Goodvac (talk) 21:46, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I saw you rated this article as start class. I agree: it is a bit more than a stub but not a lot. I quite often start "Who's Who" entries like this giving a basic biographical outline of someone who has some level of notability. It seems to me that a subject may often deserve a cursory article that just gives the basic facts. Rating an article as "start" - or as "stub" for that matter - somehow implies that more should be added. Maybe there should be some sort of rating that implies "good enough". The article on a person, book, movie, place, whatever, gives adequate coverage given the relative importance of the subject. Thoughts? Aymatth2 (talk) 00:55, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Antonio M. Diaz. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Antonio Diaz. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Antonio Diaz - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Erpert ^{Who is this guy? | Wanna talk about it?} 08:07, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Good job on Celestron fleshing that stuff out and doing something for Tom Johnson (much needed). I pulled some more material from Schmidt corrector plate re:Tom Johnson's invention of the "master block". I would note one minor problem with Tom Johnson (astronomer), he is not an astronomer (no professional credentials in that field). He could be Tom Johnson (amateur astronomer), but he is not even known for that. His primary notability seems to be engineer/entrepreneur. It will all come out in the editing "wash" but I thought I should bring it up. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 13:44, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article Hermina Dunz has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Doesn't meet WP:NOTABILITY, see WP:1E

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.

Hi, I'm MrNiceGuy1113. Scanlan, thanks for creating Raul Gonzalez (journalist)!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Being a biography, the article could do well if broken into sections with proper headings. A little more citations and text could also help.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. MrNiceGuy1113 (talk) 17:22, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't see a justification for your move of the article for Sheila Y. Oliver and wanted to reach out to you before moving it back to its original title. Oliver refers to herself consistently with her middle name, as seen at this link for her official page at the New Jersey Legislature and more so at this link for her site as Speaker of the New Jersey General Assembly. "Sheila Y. Oliver" outnumbers "Sheila Oliver" in a Google search, though some more recent articles omit the middle name as picked up in wire service articles. It would seem that both her preference combined with common usage would lean to "Sheila Y. Oliver". Alansohn (talk) 15:06, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• • Hi, it's usually much easier to link without the middle initial. Most NJ media organizations, including papers from her home county, are using "Sheila Oliver" rather than "Sheila Y. Oliver." [1][2][3] Have a good day. Scanlan (talk) 15:23, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • I forgot to add - If you feel that the "Y" is necessary, please feel free to move the page back. I won't object. Thanks again! Scanlan (talk) 00:24, 13 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Scanlan, how are you? Sorry if I ask some minutes of your time, but I need your help. I saw you opened the page Chico Anysio and perhaps you can help me to correct my errors in opening this page about another great Brazilian humorist.

Hi Scanlan, I review Darrell Tryon for you; a nice read and great to see someone who is dedicated to writing on topics which suffer from a lack of coverage. I arranged for around 1,000 photos from Vanuatu (and other South Pacific islands to a more limited extent) to be uploaded to Commons. You can see these at Commons:Category:Files from Imagicity.com, and if Vanuatu is an area you will edit more on in future, this is definitely a category you will definitely want to keep note of for future. Keep up the great work! Russavia (talk) 11:44, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Helen Klanderud 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, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not 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 "Click here to 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
