Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Kweku Elliott requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. shoy (reactions) 16:59, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

Finding this very difficult to use. I'm just trying to create a page about an african actor. Im attempting to create a stub. Where do I input information such as age, videography, bio ect — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saneema (talk • contribs) 17:12, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
- Here's the thing; unless he's had major roles in major films, and he's at least had several news sources (say, a minimum of about 15), he's not yet notable. If you can clarify about sources and his acting works, respond here. SwisterTwister talk 17:17, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Hey there, welcome to Wikipedia. You should try reading WP:AfC to get started writing an article if it's your first time. Please note that a biographical article must meet the guideline at WP:Notability (people) in order to be created - an article must have enough reliable sources to sustain an article. I hope this has helped and if you have any questions feel free to let me know on my talk page. -NottNott|talk 17:18, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
- The first thing to do is to type more than "Kweku Elliott" before you hit the "Save page" button. Since Mr. Elliott is a living person, you need to be at least somewhat familiar with our policy on biographies of living persons. Please note that all Wikipedia articles, and especially those on living people, need to cite reliable sources for all information contained within them. If you want to take your time building the article, I recommend using draft space, and moving the article when it is ready. You can do that on a page like Draft:Kweku Elliott. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 17:50, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

Please help me with...So i recently created a biographical article entitled Kweku Elliot I have 15 sources , from credible sites. Im finding it dificult to add an image. it seems that the images that Im copying into the infobox is not coming up. Is there anyone who can edit the article for me and just add an image from google because Ive tried everything. Also I did an article in drafts and saved it, and also saved it again this whole thing is confusing. Does the article have to go through an approval? Saneema (talk) 00:52, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
- The images are not showing up because URLs do not render images. The images must be uploaded to Wikipedia. —MRD2014 (talk · contribs) 02:34, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
- To answer the rest of your concerns/questions - a draft page goes through a submission/review phase to ensure that it meets Wikipedia's Golden Rule. I do not see that you have created a draft, so you should use the Article Wizard to do so. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.
