Notability of Chris Thomas (author)

A tag has been placed on Chris Thomas (author) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Joe Sperrazza (talk) 03:43, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Chris Thomas (author), is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. VanTucky 04:08, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just a tip, it really really helps to provide links to news articles when citing sources. Also, please note that blogs are not generally considered to meet Wikipedia's notion of what constitutes a reliable source. Best of luck, VanTucky 04:32, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Amplify9

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Amplify9, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://newsmaker.com.au/news/1342. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and 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 and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

The article Amplify9 has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 04:24, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Harbour theatre

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 Harbour theatre, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be a clear copyright infringement. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) 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 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 belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — 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 but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.

If you think that your 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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Chris Thomas and Andrew Allen. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hello, Caitlin1080. Thank you for your work on Bee Babette. User:Hughesdarren, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Hello, Thankyou for your article, a very interesting person. I'm going to put all of the references inline and have done the first three. Please note that youtube and twitter are not regarded as reliable sources and have been removed. By chance you wouldn't know details like date of birth, place of birth etc... these details always are a good start for biographies. Thanks for your efforts and best regards.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Hughesdarren}}. Please remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

January 2024

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistently making disruptive edits.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 05:04, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically, your edits over a period of years seem to consist of copyright violations, low-quality edits to articles, inappropriate addition of external links, and now writing advertisements can be added to that. Despite the many times concerns over your editing have been raised above, you have not once engaged in a discussion about these things. While in this case "indefinite" does not necessarily mean "permanent", there's going to need to be some response here, acknowledging those issues and actually committing to doing better, as well as agreeing to actually communicate with other editors, before an unblock could be considered. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 05:07, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just don't understand how to use Wikipedia. It's very complicated. I guess that's the end of me. Goodbye. Caitlin1080 (talk) 05:30, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, as I said, you're not necessarily gone for good (if you want to be, of course no one can stop you, but that doesn't have to be the result here). The problem here has been that a lot of other editors have told you that these problems exist, and they have gone uncorrected. Nor did you ask any of those editors "What exactly do you mean? I don't understand why that was a problem, can you give me more information?". Wikipedia is a collaborative project, so you can't just "do your own thing" and ignore everyone else. I'm certainly not trying to be mean or anything like that, but when other editors left you the notes you see above, linking to things like our policies on reliable sources, copyright, and so on, did you follow those links and read those policies? If you did, and didn't understand them, why didn't you ask for clarification? Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 22:58, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Policies are like terms and conditions from Apple on your iPhone - no one reads them. People just click accept. Didn't really understand the talk page until now. I guess that's what I get for being a chronic felcher. Caitlin1080 (talk) 00:25, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
