Speedy deletion of Turn a gif into an ico file
A tag has been placed on Turn a gif into an ico file requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Stephenb (Talk) 17:11, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

If you want to develop an article in your own private sandbox, where it is not so likely to get deleted when it is just a sentence or two, you can create such a sandbox by typing on your userpage /my sandbox and saving the edit. After getting the article in good enough shape it is not so likely to be speedily deleted, you can move it to the main space by renaming it as whatever you want to call the article. You should note that "How to" articles are not generally considered appropriate, per WP:NOTMANUAL. If you have expertise and wish to share it, please take a look at the Wikipedia Reference Desk and Help Desk. Regards. Edison (talk) 20:27, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
