Speedy deletion nomination of Neil Penswick[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Neil Penswick 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 real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

I have sent you a note about a page you started[edit]

Hello, MordantFan

Thank you for creating The Queen of Time.

User:Sam-2727, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

I wanted to let you know that I turned this into a redirect. The separate article didn't really have much in the list. Feel free to add any information directly to the list (not the plot summary, but everything else), and if that ends up being a lot of text, it can subsequently be split up into a separate article.

To reply, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Sam-2727}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

League of the Tancreds[edit]

There are short references to Howe, Stammers & Walker 1996 and Pixley 2003 in that article. Would you mind adding the full citations? Otherwise no one could figure out what's being cited. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 11:13, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay MordantFan (talk) 21:20, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Daniel O’ Mahony (writer)[edit]

The article Daniel O’ Mahony (writer) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Wait! I added the citations of Daniel O Mahony, cancel the deletion! MordantFan (talk) 03:27, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See the "Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag." part. If you've added a source, you can remove the tag and 'cancel the deletion' yourself, so to speak. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 19:14, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lost in the Dark Dimension[edit]

There's a short reference to Bingell 2012 in there, without a full citation. Would you mind adding it? Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 11:33, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I will do that by tonight at 9:04, it’s a deal MordantFan (talk) 19:12, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Andrew Stephenson (writer) moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Andrew Stephenson (writer), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. I dream of horses (talk page) (Contribs) Remember to notify me after replying off my talk page. 06:22, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Missing cite in Cat's Cradle (unproduced script)[edit]

The article cites "Pixley 2003" but no such source is listed in bibliography. Can you please add? Also, suggest installing a script (explained at Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors) to highlight such errors in the future. Thanks, Renata (talk) 04:46, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
