Your contributed article, Liu xianbin
Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Liu xianbin. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Liu Xianbin. 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 to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Liu Xianbin - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, 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 hangon 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed 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.  elektrik SHOOS  08:50, 7 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, disregard the above notice. Regarding pages, please note that for other names of a particular subject you don't need to recreate the entire page for it. (Nor should you.) Instead, Wikipedia offers what is called a redirect which allows one page to immediately load a different article when they click on a link. As the above article was an alternative capitalization of Liu Xianbin I've taken the liberty of changing it to a redirect. If you have any other questions feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks.  elektrik SHOOS  08:55, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
