Speedy deletion nomination of Yeast deletion project


A tag has been placed on Yeast deletion project 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 an organization or company, 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, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to 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 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. Gaijin42 (talk) 23:42, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 7
Hi. When you recently edited Open Biomedical Ontologies, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages MGI and TAIR (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

On edit summaries
Please refrain from using humorous and opaque edit summaries, such as. Those cause extra work for recent edit patrollers. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.226.66.207 (talk) 10:42, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

ELIXIR
Obviously I can't give any guarantees until I see what appears, but more to the point, I can't speak for other admins/new page patrollers. If you don't think it's going to be fit-for-purpose on first creation, you could add an tag, which should give you some leeway, or work on it in your sandbox.

List of sequenced plant genomes
Hi Dan. Noticing your work lately on the page List of sequenced plant genomes, which claims it "contains all the plant species known to have publicly available complete genome sequences". Do you know if it really has all of them? If so, it would improve the article to have a reference for it. If not, maybe it should just read that it "contains plant species known to have publicly available complete genome sequences". I have zero knowledge about the subject, but what do you think? Thanks, Hamamelis (talk) 14:10, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the tone down of the intro – I think it reads much better now! Hamamelis (talk) 08:04, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Track hub
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Track hub, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://genomebrowser.wustl.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTrackHubHelp.html.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 14:16, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Track hub


A tag has been placed on Track hub requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from https://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenpath/help/hgTrackHubHelp.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "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.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   14:19, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
