Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. ''Thanks for your contributions, please read a bit more on our MOS. You make a few simple mistakes but you're making them a lot, e.g. we don't capitalize every word in a header. We try to make all of our articles look the same and adhere to a few basic standards. Thanks!'' JesseRafe (talk) 20:54, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Kenyan cricket team in Sri Lanka in 2001–02
Hello Ericwg. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Kenyan cricket team in Sri Lanka in 2001–02, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''Events involving notable entities are presumed significant. In this case, "[country] cricket team in [country] in [year]" are established kinds of article and there needs to be broader consensus whether they should still exist or not (I suggest raising it at WT:CRICKET).''' Thank you. So Why  16:20, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Eternal statement
Hello Ericwg, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Eternal statement, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: clearly has context. If you are interested in learning more about how speedy deletion works, I have compiled a list of helpful pages at User:SoWhy/SDA. You can of course also contact me if you have questions. Thank you.

Also, I fixed your nomination at Articles for deletion/Eclipse Center (2nd nomination) for you. Before nominating more articles, make sure you follow all the steps outlined at WP:AFDHOWTO or the nomination will not be seen and thus not be acted upon. Last but not least, remember to sign your posts on discussion pages such as deletion discussions or talk pages using ~. Regards So  Why  16:30, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

Rockford High School Proposed Deletion
Hi! Welcome to Wikipedia. I just wanted to give you a head's up that I removed the PROD template on the Rockvale High School article. In most cases, this would mean your next step would be to nominate the Article for Deletion on the AfD page if you feel it should still be deleted. In this case though, there's an exception for public schools that avoids the whole PROD/CSD/AfD process for schools that don't meet WP:GNG. Since it was just WP:TOOSOON for an article on the school, I wiped it and redirected it to the school district's page. This isn't the way the process works for most article subjects, though, so I didn't want you to see what I did and indiscriminately copy the process on other articles. If you're curious about how public schools work, here's the guidance: WP:WPSCHOOLS/AG. Happy editing!  Orville1974  (talk) 19:57, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Sorry for the delayed response. I have reviewed your edit history. Have you read over WP:NPOV and WP:PROMOTION? Once you have, please reply here with why you believe your edits to Gregoria Casar were flagged as promotion. Sasquatch t&#0124;c 23:07, 25 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Sasquatch, I have read both WP:NPOV and WP:PROMOTION, and had skimmed WP:NPOV when I was editing the article. I believe that the edits were flagged as promotion because the article is primarily about his accomplishments that cite sources that those accomplishments are good things. A number of these sources were from national press, so I believed it was acceptable and notable. However, I was unable to find any sources that seemed to be notable that aren't POV blogs. I believe this is because most of the writing on the topic is from a positive perspective at this time. However, if the article is undeleted in the future, I'll go back through it in light of this experience and attempt to improve it and try to find more sources to make it as neutral as possible and make sure the entire article is NPOV, and proportional to the sources.

 * Alright. You seem to be editing in good faith. I will discuss your block with the blocking admin. Sasquatch t&#0124;c 15:22, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Gregorio Casar


A tag has been placed on Gregorio Casar, 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, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 deleted 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Randykitty (talk) 21:28, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
