Talk:Torrisholme

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page is about a small village in which I was born, It seems that this page has been the subject of pranksters for some time. The village itself is now part of Morecambe, but it has a notable history, I think a reasonable article could be created, especially about the very early history of the barrows.

Please feel free to add more then. I know nothing about it, but happened across the vandalism, and it is sad that people feel the need to do things like that... -- Whereizben - Chat with me 19:54, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

I just looked at the history of the article, and the silly vandalism has been added on and off since September 2006! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Flyguy649 (talk • contribs) 18:56, 12 March 2007 (UTC).

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines. 22:38, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I live in this village and the added nonsense may not be understood by people not in the district. It is racist and abusive and should not be part of wikipedia. I have applied for deletion as it is obvious that the vadals will not desist. The vandal has been using Sock Puppetry to add the vandalism. Please let's put an end to this.22:38, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I've removed the speedy tag because this does not fit the usual criteria for speedy deletion. You may find an admin rouge enough to delete the article, if the tag was left there long enough, but it's not guaranteed. I've also blocked the vandal indefinitely and semi-protected the page for a while. -- zzuuzz^(talk) 00:14, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
