Speedy deletion nomination of Hsc english module b
Please do not make statements attacking people or groups of people. Wikipedia has a strict policy against personal attacks. Attack pages and images are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 12:27, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Regarding the Hsc english module b page.
From the pages structure i would assume that this is intended to be a lecture on the reliability of internet sources, intended to be given to a class. If this the case i feel that i should tell you that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a webhost or a publisher of original research.

Seeing that the lesson you are attempting to relay is quite valuable (If my assumption is correct that is), i would like to point you to our verifiability and reliable sources guidelines, and perhaps to a lesser extend out neutral point of view guideline. These guidelines deal with the same subject as your article, and might therefor be sources to consider in the teaching process. However, once again, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and is therefor not the appropriate source for storing or creating teaching material.

With kind regards, Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 13:08, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Basically, we don't host lectures or lesson plans, I suggest that you try blogger.com or similar. --Cameron Scott (talk) 13:29, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Daniel smedley
A tag has been placed on Daniel smedley 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 person or group of people, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot is a program that tries to help people find interesting, useful things to do in Wikipedia. It predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

You received these suggestions because we're trying a little test to see if SuggestBot is helpful for newer Wikipedia editors -- but normally it only makes suggestions for people who ask for them explicitly on the SuggestBot request page. We won't post suggestions on your talk page again unless you ask for them. SuggestBot was created by ForteTuba--please let him know if you like it, or if you don't, or you feel that it was a good or bad idea to make these suggestions to you as a newer Wikipedia user.

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, by following links from them to other articles and by matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians to find things you might be interested in. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work, such as stub articles that need to be made longer, cleanup articles that need writing help, and so on. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping. -- SuggestBot (talk) 05:20, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
