Speedy deletion nomination of Englewood does not exist
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing inappropriate pages, such as Englewood does not exist, is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "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. reddogsix (talk) 01:14, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

[edit]Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Amarna letters. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use the sandbox instead, where you are given a certain degree of freedom in what you write. Chris Troutman (talk) 02:44, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
Ways to improve Ibn Rumahis
[edit]Hi, I'm TonyBallioni. Ephraimhelfgot, thanks for creating Ibn Rumahis!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Adding additional references to reliable sources would help the readers verify the information. I removed the citation to the Spanish Wikipedia because Wikipedia does not cite itself.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Ways to improve Jacob HaGozer
[edit]Hi, I'm Reb1981. Ephraimhelfgot, thanks for creating Jacob HaGozer!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. I removed the reference you added. That site is not a reliable source.

Hi Ephraimhelfgot. I see you added some public domain content to the above article. That's okay, but you have to give attribution. In the future, simply add the template {{PD-notice}}
after your citation. I have done so for the above article. Please do this in the future so that our readers will be aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. Thanks, — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 23:05, 27 May 2017 (UTC)
