[edit] Bradn87 = Brad Norman ?

Hello, Bradn87. The article you created at Brad Norman was listed for deletion as An article about a real person that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject, criterion 7 in the criteria for speedy deletion, Articles section. Since it appears to be about you I've moved it to your user space instead, which was probably what you intended in the first place (a common mistake among newcomers!).

If you really did mean to create an article about yourself please be aware that this is often considered a bad idea, even if you do meet the guidelines for inclusion of biographies.

I know Wikipedia can be confusing for new editors, so you are welcome to ask for help at the help desk or on my talk page. -- PFHLai 06:06, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Wes.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Wes.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] No content in Category:St. John's Fog Devils players

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:St. John's Fog Devils players, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:St. John's Fog Devils players has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:St. John's Fog Devils players, 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] Vandalism of my User Page

Thank you. --Djsasso 18:24, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Saint John Fog Devils players

As a fellow fan of junior hockey (Calgary Hitmen), I can sympathize with your concerns. However, consensus at Wikipedia is that junior players are not notable for playing junior hockey. Lacking another argument for notability (ie: first round NHL draft pick), these player articles are typically deleted. Given you are disputing the Proposed deletion tags on the player articles, I am removing them and listing the player articles for deletion at articles for deletion where they will be discussed by the community. You are welcome to add your input to the debate when it is created. Hoever, based on precedents outlined by Wikipedia's notability guidelines and the Ice hockey project's notability guidelines, chances are good these articles will not pass at AfD. Please do not take this as a personal affront. You have done some good work on Wikipedia. Unfortunately, you just ran afoul of the belief among the community that junior players are not inherently notable.

In regards to your comments about Djsasso, please avoid making personal attacks. He is just following Wikipedia policy. Regards, Resolute 21:47, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Block AfD was created here. Feel free to add your comments, but please keep the policies and guidelines I listed above in mind when you are commenting. Thanks, Resolute 22:00, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your recent edits

Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button Image:Wikisigbutton.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 10:22, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Removing AFD tags

Welcome to Wikipedia. It would be appreciated if you would not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. ccwaters 10:48, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edmonton River

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Edmonton River, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. Pumpmeup 09:57, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
