Your recent edits
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 or  located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 17:16, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Inver in a sphere, Fig 3.pdf


A tag has been placed on File:Inver in a sphere, Fig 3.pdf requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Stefan2 (talk) 01:23, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Avoid Road Crashes


The article Avoid Road Crashes has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This is an essay, not an article; Wikipedia is not for essays.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Your contributed article, Avoid Road Crashes


Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Avoid Road Crashes. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Road traffic safety. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Road traffic safety - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Scopecreep (talk) 13:44, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

A response to your post on Talk:Avoid Road Crashes
Hey, Bparslow. I just wanted to give a response to you here, since the article and its talk page were (rightly) deleted before we could talk about it. I appreciate what you're trying to do, but Wikipedia just isn't the right place to do it. Wikipedia isn't here to tell the world about a noble cause. We still need our articles to be notable, verifiable, and neutral. What you wrote is more akin to a personal essay than an encyclopedia article; things like personal essays almost always delve into original research, which we can't have on Wikipedia. And as another editor has pointed out, we do already have an article about road traffic safety, so the general subject isn't being ignored! I do appreciate your honest effort, but Wikipedia's just not the right place for it. Thanks! Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 14:31, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
