Welcome!

Speedy deletion nomination of Bagsby


A tag has been placed on Bagsby 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.

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; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Zachlipton (talk) 19:02, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment.

Vandalism on class page
I would like to let you know, that I reverted your vandalism of the class's assignment page, see the diff at this link. If you continue editing in that manner, even if you are a member of one of the Public Policy classes, there are many users on Wikipedia that would gladly ban you. Please remember that this is a cooperative working environment and very many people take the work we do seriously, and so should you if it is for a grad. Wikipedia is a place to edit with decorum, like you would in any working environment, Sadads (talk) 20:18, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

February 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Bagsby, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Zachlipton (talk) 22:03, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
