[edit] Nathaniel avorn

A tag has been placed on Nathaniel avorn, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Nathaniel avorn is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Nathaniel avorn. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable. DVD+ R/W 02:22, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

It might not have been your intent, but you recently removed content from Academic detailing. Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Thank you. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Alphachimp talk 17:21, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from articles as it is considered vandalism. You may place {{hangon}} on the page and make your case on the article's talk page if you oppose an article's speedy deletion. Thanks. Alphachimp talk 17:22, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Please stop adding commercial links to Wikipedia, as you did in ISPE. It is considered spamming, and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. Thanks.

[edit] Regarding Academic Detailing

Hey. New user to Wikipedia here. I come in peace. I made a place holder article (stub?) for Academic Detailing that was a copy from a scientific journal article (JAMA is the journal.) It was flagged to be deleted because it was copywritten. Based on my very limited understanding of copyright law, I decided to err on the side of caution and take it down, replacing it with (mostly) original text. I don't think that this is vandalism.

Thanks for the conscientious reply. I'm posting this on both my and your talk page, but it would be a little bit easier if you replied on mine. We can't make "placeholders" for articles that we don't have any content for. A stub would be something like a few sentences long, and that would be just fine.
As for copying out of JAMA (I have a little bit of experience with it), it is a copywritten journal. I doubt that they grant the right to reproduce their content. Even so, Wikipedia is not (WP:NOT) just a collection of source materials.
As for the vandalism warning...you removed a speedy deletion notice from the page when you reworded it. It is never, ever acceptable to remove a speedy delete unless you are an administrator or the person that added it.
The other warning was for adding redirects to your article.
I hope that makes things a little bit more clear. Don't let this scare you off. Wikipedia is a pretty open and nice place. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions or concerns. --Alphachimp talk 17:36, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
