Read it. Understand it. Complain to someone else.

What are the sources that you have that establish notability. I will convert it to prod to give you time to establish notability. If its deleted, I will support you in a request for undeletion providing that there is verifiable evidence of her notability. Capitalistroadster 04:31, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, "brilliant"? I like it. :) I don't mind giving some extra time, but to give you fair warning, as it stands it does strike me as a fairly non-notable bio. That could change though. Another option is to maybe merge its content with Theatre with Byte, thus giving that article double the reason to exist. Anyway, it's all speculation at this point. We'll see what happens after you have another go at it tomorrow. Cheers! --P e ruvianLlama^(spit) 04:53, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed the ongoing discussion and debate both at Talk:April Hutchinson, and here. If I may be so bold to offer some advice, then that would be to stay cool. There are two possibilities: the first is that User:Calton is not being rude or condescending at all, in which case your responses are the only ones out of line and rude. The second possibility is that Calton's comments are rude and condescending, in which case you should Not be Feeding the Trolls. Either way, cooler heads will prevail; I find leaving Wikipedia alone for an hour or two before returning to a contentious issue often helps keep my perspective in check. I don't really know you that well, so perhaps I'm overstepping bounds by offering such advice - but, well, there it is anyway. I hope you take it in the spirit that it's offered. Cheers! --P e ruvianLlama^(spit) 08:02, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from articles as it is considered vandalism. You may place {{hangon}} on the page and make your case on the article's talk page if you oppose an article's speedy deletion. Thanks. Vegaswikian 05:37, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but if the article says he is best known for his essays 'The Dance of the Fireflies' and there is NOT ONE other relevant Google hit for this title and the name 'Dare' [1] I need something more to vote for keep. It's not just the problem of using a different name. Also there is e.g. no reference for Dare Tabloid is notable among Florida publications by merit of having had the fastest growth in the state's history (according to the record, 60 copies to 90,000 copies in 18 months). The given reference only shows that this magazine was published twice, April and May '90 but says nothing else. Gu 08:57, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Hooker of alcohol

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Hooker of alcohol, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. chrylis (talk) 18:18, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Hooker of alcohol

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages such as Hooker of alcohol, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. CultureDrone (talk) 21:08, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, the original entry you created was tagged for deletion as it had no references or sources cited to back up the article (see here and here) - I see you've corrected that on your recent version. With so many articles being created, the onus (for new articles) is generally on the article creator to provide sources. Secondly, I didn't delete the article - all I did was tag it. The article would then have been assessed by an administrator who'd have assessed the article as it stood and decided whether or not to delete the article, so a minimum of two people would have read your original article and decided it didn't meet Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. Don't take it personally - many articles have to go several revisions before they're accepted. You've improved the article so it's had a beneficial effect, and I look forward to reading your other contributions. CultureDrone (talk) 08:59, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
