[edit] post once

Please note that we create an article once only. If alternative titles are considered necessary, we use #redirect.

Excessive emboldening as in this state is almost as bad using all capitals. -- RHaworth 16:08, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Limerick city (including extended boundary)

I have nominated Limerick city (including extended boundary) for deletion; before creating an article it is worth considering if the article name is common enough for someone to find it or will they type something simplier, see Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names). Their are already two comprehensive articles on Limerick - re City of Limerick and County Limerick and editing should be confined to these. Thanks Djegan 21:05, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Gay Dublin

A tag has been placed on Gay Dublin requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, 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 article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Mh29255 (talk) 16:05, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Raidió X

The article Raidió X has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 10:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Top 40 Oifigiúil na hÉireann

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Top 40 Oifigiúil na hÉireann, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.digitalaudioproductions.com/top40.shtml. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 14:42, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Metropolitan areas in Ireland

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Metropolitan areas in Ireland, 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 should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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 agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Metropolitan areas in Ireland.

[edit] Your username

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: Taoiseach is the title of the head of the government of Ireland, and use that title as a username apperars to breach WP:USERNAME#Inappropriate_username, which covers "Misleading usernames: imply misleading things about the contributor. For example, misleading points of fact, an impression of undue authority, or the suggestion that the account is operated by a group, project or collective rather than one individual".. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:

Thank you. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:24, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
