User talk:Dgetts

Welcome!

Hello, Dgetts, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as TOL101, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have!

Speedy deletion nomination of TOL101
A tag has been placed on TOL101, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 - 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.

TOL101
From your username and the article you are editing, I infer that you may be the Getts D listed as an author of two of the American Journal of Transplantation references to that article. This raises the possibility of certain concerns with regard to Wikipedia's Conflict of Interest policies. Please make yourself acquainted with them to avoid potential problems down the road. While expert editors are more than welcome, it is critical to ensure that you don't rely solely on your expertise or your own published papers to support statements in articles.

We depend on the citation of reliable sources to ensure that any reader can verify assertions for themselves. You removed the and  tags that I added to certain statements in the article that did not have clearly identified sources or that seemed to need independent verification. I have restored those tags until such time as those sources are cited and verified. Please do not delete them again. I will be more than happy to do so myself, as will many other editors, once the underlying issue is addressed. I've watchlisted the article, but feel free to leave a note on my talkpage any time you prefer. Thank you, LeadSongDog come howl!  20:43, 15 September 2010 (UTC)


 * The main issue is the references need to be review articles and yes it is best not to use ones own. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:24, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
