Speedy deletion nomination of Mulumba Ivan Matthias
Hello Faintsmoke,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Mulumba Ivan Matthias for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Gbawden (talk) 09:46, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello. Your recent edit to List of African writers by country appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Barbara Kimenye, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Kabaka and Halifax (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

License tagging for File:Nyana kakoma.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Nyana kakoma.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 16:06, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Melissa Kiguwa
Hello, Faintsmoke,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Melissa Kiguwa should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Melissa Kiguwa.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Ways to improve Angela Kalule
Hi, I'm Doomsdayer520. Faintsmoke, thanks for creating Angela Kalule!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Thank you for your Wikipedia page on Angela Kalule, but more evidence of her notability is needed. So far your page only has one significant and reliable media notice about the singer, that being the "True love came calling..." article. Otherwise you have a few articles that briefly introduce her. If you can find articles that verify and expand upon the awards she has won, that would surely help. Good luck!

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.
