Speedy deletion nomination of Modern calendar


Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing inappropriate pages, such as Modern calendar, is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. The page has been nominated for deletion, in accordance with Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think that your page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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. Mdann52 (talk) 14:52, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Modern calendar
You introduced the Modern calendar article a few days ago, and it was summarily deleted. You have introduced it again, and it appears equally likely to be summarily deleted. The problem is that, without any verifiable citations, this appears to be something you made up yourself, and Wikipedia is not the place to publish your own inventions. The calendar also seems to present significant problems, not the least of which is the fact that it is 384 days long, which would bring it out of sync with the solar cycles very quickly.

If you have a citation in a reliable source for this calendar variation, please let us know. If you don't, please stop trying to use Wikipedia to publish your own original ideas. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:30, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
