Speedy deletion nomination of Gellerite

[edit]

Hello Billnixon,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Gellerite for deletion, because it seems to be a test. Did you know that the Wikipedia Sandbox is available for testing out edits?

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. Thanks, I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 20:43, 29 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
