Seriously, man. I see you're a big fan of the Left Banke, and that's just fine. As an administrator, I've got kind of a selfish reason for asking you to register - when I go through the list of "recently created articles", looking for garbage that needs to be deleted right away (and believe me, there's a lot or garbage that gets submitted), I'm always more suspicious of articles that come from anonymous IPs instead of registered users. After all, who would bother registering as a user just to submit vandalism? (actually, as it turns out, there's an unpleasant answer to that question, but still. Most vandals don't bother.) So if I see that the articles come from, say, [[User:LeftBankeFan]], or whatever name you choose, I'll know that they're genuine and they don't have to be checked for garbage.
Looking forward to hearing from you as a registered user. DS 13:21, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Notability of Sans Filtre
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Sans Filtre, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Sans Filtre seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Sans Filtre, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] Speedy deletion of Jake Hooker
A tag has been placed on Jake Hooker requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. -- Naerii 18:53, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
