[edit] Speedy deletion of Jeffrey A. Klein, MD

A tag has been placed on Jeffrey A. Klein, MD 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 (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. KurtRaschke (talk) 21:00, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jeffrey A. Klein, MD notability

It look like there might be some notability regarding this subject, but it was not clear from the article. You should look at WP:BIO and WP:PROF to get an idea of what Wikipedia is looking for. If you have any questions, please leave a note on my talk page. ... discospinster talk 21:09, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Liposuction

Hi,

Regards your edit to liposuction, don't link titles. Instead, use a {{main}} link just below the section heading, like this: {{main|dog}} - the pipe between main and dog produces

Main article: dog

However, the article you are trying to link to is a redlink, meaning it does not exist. Generally linking to uncreated articles is a no-no unless there is an expectation that the page will be created soon (and don't use a {{main}} if that is the case, because the main article does not exist). However, I don't think tumescent liposuction will ever be anything but a mention on the liposuction given the info you've added.

You also added some references in 'raw' format - consider instead using footnotes and citation templates. There's some tools you can use:

  • Citation templates
  • Google scholar autocitation, a google-style search engine and reference generator. Useful when the article doesn't have a pubmed number (old, social sciences or humanities) but the citation template isn't as neat and it does not fill in ISBN or pubmed numbers
  • ISBN searchable database, used in conjunction with Diberry to find, and generate citation templates
  • pubmed/isbn Diberry's template generator, incredibly useful, uses the [www.pubmed.org pubmed] number or isbn to automatically generate a citation template for you; the most useful if you have a pubmed or ISBN

Thanks, WLU (talk) 19:52, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tumescent liposuction

Hi, I deleted Tumescent liposuction because it contained sections copied directly from liposuction.com. Copyrighted material is expressly forbidden on Wikipedia; all work entered must be your own work. Another problem was it's non-neutral tone. I would suggest that you need to write this scratch and not plagarise content. Also remember to add {{reflist}} onto the page as well; your references weren't visible when I looked at it. Regards. Woody (talk) 20:00, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Also, I have re-worked the section in liposuction; I am unable to find the sources cited, particularly the "The tumescent technique for liposuction surgery. Journal of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, volume 4, pages 263-267,1987" or "Tumescent Technique: Tumescent Anesthesia & Microcanullar Liposuction"; is the latter a book?

[edit] Re: Why delete my Bio

Hello – thanks for the message. I've restored the article at your request. Note that this does NOT prevent someone else for nominating it for deletion, and frankly, someone else will nominate it in short order unless improvements are made and notability is established.

Some advice:

  • You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.
  • The 'personal interview' to which you referred in the article is a primary source, and is not allowed as a reference to establish notability. Wikipedia is not the publisher of first instance, and since your 'personal interview' has not been published in a verifiable, reliable source, you cannot use it as a reference. Wikipedia's standard is not truth but verifiability. You can find the generally accepted criteria for notability of academics (professors, teachers, researchers, and so forth) at WP:PROF.

Please read the policies to which I've linked in this message before deciding if you want to continue writing this article. We have strict guidelines for the biographies of living persons, and the sources section is particularly applicable here.

I hope this answers your questions. Please feel free to ask for more help, either on my talk page or by adding {{helpme}} to this page, and someone will be by shortly to assist you. Welcome again - KrakatoaKatie 01:25, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Jeffrey A. Klein, MD

I have nominated Jeffrey A. Klein, MD, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jeffrey A. Klein, MD. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. KurtRaschke (talk) 00:34, 14 April 2008 (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. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button Image:Signature_icon.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 (talk) 06:01, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Why have I been blocked?

This is kind of weird, but the admin Thatcher blocked me from making any edits instead of contacting me. I don't even know how to ask someone to unblock me. I'm hoping that this post will send someone my way. Lukeklein (talk) 00:37, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Try looking into {{helpme}}; once you've figured out the reason, you can try {{unblock}}. But if you abuse the unblock template (i.e. use it several times in a row without providing an acceptable reason for being unblocked), you will be blocked for longer (possibly permanently) and your talk page will be locked (i.e. you won't be able to edit the one page you could normally edit while blocked). You could also try e-mailing the admin in question. WLU (talk) 00:59, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
If I had to guess, the reason for your block would be this. WLU (talk) 01:02, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | rangeblocks | unblock | contribs | deleted contribs) has asked to be unblocked, but an administrator has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock request while you are blocked.

Request reason: "I never used a puppet. See the following links for proof (two videos and my facebook)"

Decline reason: "No, the reason you can't edit is probably cause your still using the same computer you socked from, and are hitting the autoblocker. Emailuser Thatcher if you want to dispute CU block. — MBisanz talk 02:05, 23 April 2008 (UTC)"

Please make any further unblock requests by using the {{unblock}} template. However, abuse of the template may result in your talk page being protected.

[edit] Hello

I wouldn't worry about the article being deleted -- when I last checked the DRV, it appeared to be secure in its place on Wikipedia. I honestly thought the DRV had already concluded in your favor. I cannot withdraw the request at this point, but don't sweat it. Give it a short time and it will.

Look, I'm sorry we had this problem over the article. My behavior could've been much more diplomatic. I've learned not to get too emotionally tied-up in these debates and discussions. Thanks! Ecoleetage (talk) 21:22, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Heads up: the Deletion Review ruled in your favor, and I removed the tag from Dr. Klein's article. Be well. Ecoleetage (talk) 18:28, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
