Deletion discussion about Natural Disaster Survival
Hello, A diehard editor, and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit here too, under the username EggRoll97, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Natural Disaster Survival, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Natural Disaster Survival.

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And, don't forget to sign your reply with. Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
