The article Bandera Downs has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails to meet GNG. Yes is opened, yes it closed, otherwise nothing more to write about

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.

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Franciszek Jarecki may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Eureka Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad Depot

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Eureka Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad Depot, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://atsfrr.net/resources/Sandifer/Howard/Eureka/Depot/Depot.htm.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

The Downs at Santa Fe

Hello, Braniffair, and thank you for your contributions!

I wanted to let you know it seems an article you worked on, The Downs at Santa Fe, is copied from another Wikipedia page, Downs at Sante Fe. It's fine to do this as long as you provide the following information in the edit summary:

a link to the article you copied from
the date you copied it

You can do this now by editing the page, making any minor edit to the article, and adding the above information into the edit summary.

If you're still not sure how to fix the problem, please leave a message at the help desk. It's possible that I made a mistake, so feel free to remove the tag I placed on the article.

Thanks again for helping build the free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 20:40, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Downs at Santa Fe

I've moved it to Downs at Santa Fe, since that's what seemed to make sense. Great work with racetrack articles by the way - despite all the unsightly deletion tags you have been served, I think your articles are great. I've noticed a few of your articles have been abandoned in AFC - just go ahead and create them. They all look fine. Many thanks. James^x12345 20:48, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I marvel at the number of huge horse tracks that have come and gone without a trace. I'm just trying to preserve a little history.

Disambiguation link notification for October 9

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Devonshire Downs, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Jethro Tull (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:50, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Hidden Valley Downs

The article Hidden Valley Downs has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This local horse race track (open for 5-years) lacks significant coverage with two Dead links, one manually written source (not verifiable). A one-time mention in a U.S. national sports publication is insufficient to establish notability.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
