First question

[edit]

Hello! Are you creating an article about yourself?

Your article and the recent edits are quite dubious. I suggest you read the following pages: 1, 2

and then review your article and edits.

All of your contributions are at risk of being deleted...

Best,

Your bio

[edit]

Hi, I just cleaned up a bit your bio. It urgently needs some good sources to show notability in the encyclopedic sense. As you have already seen, if such references are not given, the article risks to be tagged for notability or even be put up for deletion and such discussions can be rather humbling (I know, I just went through one myself... :-) To have an idea of what is needed, have a look at the notability guidelines for academics. This is not really my field, so I have no idea where to look. Let me know if I can help. --Crusio (talk) 00:04, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Evangelos Moustakas requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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 article (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. Invest in knowledge (talk) 08:49, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. Falcon8765 (talk) 18:29, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Recreating deleted articles

[edit]

Hi, articles that have been deleted after a deletion discussion (AfD) should in general not be recreated. If you keep doing this, you might get blocked from editing Wikipedia. If you think the article was deleted in error, you should go to deletion review (but I don't think this would be helpful in this case). If significant new sources come up, it owuld be best to contact an admin (for instance, the admin who closed the AfD and deleted the first version of the article) and explain why you think the article can be recreated now. Just a friendly warning. Happy editing! --Crusio (talk) 18:37, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
