[edit] Hello, I'm I dream of horses. I noticed that in this edit to Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. I dream of horses If you reply here, please ping me by adding {{U|I dream of horses}} to your message (talk to me) (My edits) @ 22:14, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
Hello I dream of horses. Thank you for your message. I will leave a description next time. I am actually the one who added this information onto the page and subsequently removed it as I was informed by a colleague that it contained an inaccuracy. We are currently working on compiling more information as well as editing the info I previously published to ensure it is not misleading. As soon as I have done this I will re-add the subheading about the Faculty of Dental Surgery. If you don't mind, I think it would be best to take it down until I have made the information correct. Thanks again! TheStudiousDentist (talk)
Speedy deletion nomination of Golden Proportion
[edit]Hello TheStudiousDentist,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Golden Proportion for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons. For more details please see the notice on the article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
- Just to add more detail. You can create pages which are still under development in your sandbox or as a draft. Pages created in normal article space without sufficient content, context, and verification will simply be deleted. Then scrutiny of the recreation of pages which have been previously been deleted is more scrupulous and the whole thing becomes tiresome for everyone.

The article The Wikipedia Collaboration of Dental Schools has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Please put all relevant content on Wikipedia:WikiProject Dentistry.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 09:37, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
- There is nothing on the talk page. Please either have this deleted or move it to the appropriate namespace. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 17:38, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
