Animal Verbs

Hi EditExpress. I just came across your new article and I was wondering if this may actually be a good topic for inclusion on Wikipedia. It seems to me like effectively a dictionary page which is something that Wikipedia does not want to me, see WP:NOTADICTIONARY. Also, other than the google dictionary, do you have any other sources about the etymology of the verbs? Just because a word is identical to that of an animal, it may not be related. One that sprung immediately to mind is "fry". The verb meaning the cooking activity is actually dervived from that latin "frigere". "Bat" also very different etymologies between the animal and the verb. I'm tagging the article with a suggested deletion, which gives 7 days to address issues, however, as I said initially the topic may not be suitable to start. Please let me know if you have any questions, and please don't feel discouraged to contribute. WIkipedia's rules and guidelines may seem complex, especially when starting off and creating your first articles. All the best, _pseudonym Jake Brockman ^talk 06:44, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Animal Verbs

The article Animal Verbs has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:NOTADICTIONARY. The etymology of those verbs is also unclear - the root of many verbs is different to the root of the noun and would probably need to be referenced accordingly. Other than that, this strikes me like a dictionary page.

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. _pseudonym Jake Brockman ^talk 06:47, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (August 3)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Eagleash were:

We're sorry, but we cannot accept blank submissions. If in fact you did include text within the article, but it isn't showing, please make sure that any extra text above your entry is removed, as it may be causing it to hide and not be shown to the reviewer.

This submission seems to be a test edit and not an article worthy of an encyclopedia. Please use the sandbox for any editing tests, but do not submit for review until you have an article that you want reviewed for inclusion in Wikipedia. Thank you.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please do not submit the sandbox for review unless it contains a fully-fledged draft which is considered ready for review / mainspace.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:EditExpress/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
