Warning

It appears you are the same user as User:Mckenzie1248. Wikipedia strongly forbids the use of multiple accounts by the same person, particularly as a means of evading warnings or blocks, and it is not hard for us to identify you. Please restrict yourself to a single account, or you will be blocked from editing on any account. Also, please stop creating pages for small parks; these are not sufficiently notable to warrant encyclopedia articles. —swpb^T 14:51, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not a valid reason

"I need it for school" is not a valid reason to keep a page on wikipedia. Please refrain from making pages about non-notable small parks ThePlatypusofDoom (talk) 14:56, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your app

You mention on Talk:Lloyd Carr Park Riverview MI that you are creating these pages about local parks to support an app you are building. I congratulate you on your efforts, but you can't use Wikipedia as a free repository of data needed by your app. If your app needs access to an online database of parks, you'll have to build that elsewhere on another Webhosting service. (Understand that you can create your own Wiki on just about any webhosting service, as the Wikipedia software is open source an can be freely installed on most webhosting services.)

School project

Hello,

I suppose that you are a teacher or a student, involved in a current school assignment implicating the creation of Wikipedia articles about parks in Michigan.

As you may have already guessed, there is concern in the Wikipedia community that your work disrupts, rather than improves, Wikipedia. I assume you are acting in good faith, but not all parks are worth of a Wikipedia article; there are concerns about the "notability" of these topics. It would be better to have a discussion beforehand about what is and is not acceptable for your project: it will avoid wasting everyone's time (yours creating articles that are not acceptable, and Wikipedians' deleting them).

Please abstain from creating such articles until the matter has been discussed, and pass the word to other persons in your class. I suggest that the teacher comments at this venue: Wikipedia:Education_noticeboard/Incidents#Michigan_parks_school_project.

Best regards, Tigraan^{Click here to contact me} 15:55, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, as an alternative to deletion I have merged some of the parks articles into the article on Wyandotte, Michigan. That way the work remains visible and your or your students' research hasn't been wasted. -- Euryalus (talk) 00:35, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
