[edit] Battleship articles

A tag has been placed on Brandenburg class battleship, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

I can understand what you were trying to do, however I tagged the articles on the premise that Wikipedia is not a repository of external links. An article that is only link with no text is generally frowned upon. As you may have noticed, someone else came along and saved the articles by adding a bare level of context. Hopefully you can use the link you provided, and others, to ultimately build these articles into something as useful as some of the others on different classes of battleships. It can be a facinating topic to read about. Cheers, Resolute 23:57, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] VGY7UJM?

That's no call sign pattern I've ever run into. I know the VG- at the start means Canada, but how did you choose the other five characters? -- Denelson83 04:34, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

It is an upside-down V on the keyboard. Vgy7ujm 20:17, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Promotion of bartleby.com

That's a lot of links you're adding to bartleby. I use the site myself, but an external link is only appropriate if it adds something important and new. These translations are public domain and in many cases already linked from the article. Do not add bartleby.com links if they are redundant—usually the site already linked will not feature all the popup advertising, etc., of bartleby! I have reverted you at The Divine Comedy (because the Cary translation was already linked), and if you care about the encyclopedia & its policies, you will revert almost all of your other bartleby links on your own, for the same reason. Form letter follows, which is relevant, though I'm not assuming you're employed by bartleby.com to advertise for them.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.
