Repost of The Julia and David White Artists' Colony
A tag has been placed on requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, place the template hangon underneath the other template on the article and put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this article should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use deletion review instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of The Julia and David White Artists' Colony
A tag has been placed on The Julia and David White Artists' Colony 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. You may 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. Coolug (talk) 20:41, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Julia and David White Colony
For the last year, colonists have found the preceding entries on the Julia and David White Colony of Costa Rica to be one-sided and incorrect. Many of us are discussing the revisions to the page. It does serve a good purpose, as an outside evaluation by many users of a remote retreat. We want to link our own artist pages with work done here and narratives of our experiences. As this is my first day on wiki, I do not know how to do footnotes. We are all trying to get on for the first time so bear with us. We represent ten years of experience at the colony. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DoctorWriter (talk • contribs) 18:47, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * The article has been deleted several times over the last few years, including once after a WP:AFD discussion, for lack of notability. Wikipedia is not a directory, nor a website designed to link to personal pages, or to share personal experiences. In short, it's not for advertising or blogging. Please read WP:NOTABILITY, WP:GROUP, WP:NOT, WP:COI, and WP:RELIABLE. Unless you can provide published sources supporting the colony's significance, the article will continue to be deleted.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project.
