Deletions ---

If you are here because of pending or past article deletion that I was part of, thank you for taking the time.

This is an attempt at a short introduction that will hopefully address the some of the concerns that brought you here.


 * 1) I do a lot of work from the project WP:URA, which has the goal of adding references to articles.  That is not always possible, and all to often the requirements of WP:V and/or WP:N lead me to suggest the article be deleted.  I should have detailed in the message why the articles appears to be inappropriate for Wikipedia and what leads me to that conclusion.
 * 2) If you can add references to the article that shows I am wrong, by all means do so and remove the PROD, and/or vote keep at the WP:AfD. If you are reading this, than you most probably disagree with my assessment of an article you care about and have references or knowledge that I don't.  Your skills in helping the article meet expectations would be welcome.
 * 3) If your sure I am idiot, your not alone :) It can be hard when an article about a subject you care about seems like it is being attacked.  I probably found the article that brought you here because it was alphabetically next in the oldest of Category:Articles needing additional references or was intimately related to one of them.  I have been working WP:URA since 2007, I have improved thousands, I have recommended some for deletion, and I have been wrong.  I would love to have you prove me wrong about my assessment if I recommended the article for deletion.
 * 4) Sometimes I am wrong in my assessment Birmingham Dribbler and the intervention of experts leads to an improved article.  Sometimes article written by the most trusted editors Articles for deletion/Manar Group can not be made to meet WP:V, and other times article that seems to be highly notable Articles for deletion/Ahmed Abdel Haye Kira can't find any WP:RS to meet WP:V.
