Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In 2011, after closing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shinese (3rd nomination) as a delete, you userified the page to User:Theornamentalist/Shinese. It is currently up at MFD since it has not been improved in that time period. The discussion at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Theornamentalist/Shinese seems to indicate a failure on your part to consider WP:BEFORE and other issues. Given that you can delete it again at your own discretion, would you reconsider this four year old userification? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 09:58, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sunday July 10: WikNYC Picnic @ Central Park

[edit]
Sunday July 10, 3-8pm: WikNYC Picnic

You are invited to join us the "picnic anyone can edit" in Manhattan's Central Park, as part of the Great American Wiknic celebrations being held across the USA. Remember it's a wiki-picnic, which means potluck.

3–8pm - come by any time! The picnicking area is the southwest section of the Great Lawn, north of the Delacorte Theater, just inside the park at Central Park West between 81st & 82nd. Enter the park at West 81st St.
Look for us by the Wikipedia / Wikimedia NYC banner!
Subway: 81st Street – Museum of Natural History, C Line

We hope to see you there! --Pharos (talk) 14:55, 5 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

02:30, 21 February 2016 King of Hearts (talk | contribs) deleted page Dream Factory Foundation (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dream Factory Foundation closed as delete)

[edit]

Hi- I would like to add the page for Dream Factory Foundation. It was deleted based on the understanding that there were not enough notable sources. Since then the works of the foundation were noted in a number of independent sources including: 1. South African Government - http://www.gov.za/speeches/second-annual-dsd-youth-excellence-awards-addressed-mec-fritz-21-jun-2016-0000 2. TFG Club - Foschini Group - http://www.tfgclub.co.za/2015/02/dare-dream/ 3. The Newspaper (Stories that are changing lives) - http://www.thenewspaper.co.za/western-cape-department-of-social-development-ministerial-youth-excellence-awards/ 4. SABC 2 - National broadcaster in South Africa - http://www.hn9.co.za/blogs/tags/dream%20factory 5. My Hands and Heart - http://www.myhandsandheart.org/opp/bmbDUxbgQ7mEnDKSL_rSJw/info 6. http://habitat.org.za/message-of-hope-pelican-park-community-talent-day/ For me this is a proud story of how young black South Africans are making a difference in the lives of the underprivileged. It is a story of defiance in a country overwhelmed by negativity.

I have no doubt in my mind that we world needs such stories and platforms like Wikipedia, whose focus is factual information, should allow entities such as Dream Factory Foundation. Please let me know if this is sufficient to allow the page on Wikipedia. Regards L Nyere — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lnyere (talkcontribs) 13:05, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The guideline states that there must be "significant coverage in reliable sources." Unfortunately, each of the links you listed mentions the subject only once or a few times, so it is insufficient. -- King of 01:47, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi King of - Please check this radio interview http://iono.fm/e/317163. i am sure this is independent and done by one of the national radio station.

i am sure this covers the notability requirements.

i would also like to know if there is someone else who should look at these links and provide independent advice?

regards, L Nyere
