The Restoration of the Kakapo
Hi, Extinctiongroup5 - I note your creation of the above new article. Your efforts to contribute to Wikipedia are appreciated. However, it appears to cover pretty much the same stuff already in the Kakapo article, as well as lacking good references. Maybe you could add any genuinely new information, with appropriate references, to the preexisting article. Feel free to ask if you have any questions or need any help.

 * Note that Wikipedia articles, even featured ones like Kakapo, are not independent verifiable sources. If you feel unable to reference your article, I'll either make it a redirect to the main article, or delete it since it's an improbable redirect anyway  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  10:42, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Restoration of the Kakapo


The article Restoration of the Kakapo has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * unreferenced and essay-like, and subject is already well covered at the main article Kakapo

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. gadfium 21:03, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
