School and university projects
Hello Foongting, you might be interested in School and university projects. If you would like to create an article, you can find the guide here: Your first article. You can also use the Article Wizard. If you want to experiment, please use the Sandbox. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me on my talk page; alternatively, you may ask the question here and put  before the question. Happy editing! --Joshua Issac (talk) 13:17, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of RegAni - The kid's wonder


A tag has been placed on RegAni - The kid's wonder requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about it should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you can assert the notability of the subject,. Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the |the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

See the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies.


 * Please note that notability at Wikipedia is not temporary, so temporary articles are not allowed. Best regards --AdAstra reloaded (talk) 17:19, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Moved to your userspace
I'm sorry, but Wikipedia is a serious project to build an encyclopedia - it is not a website provider for school projects. The best I can do for you - and that's bending the rules, see WP:FAKEARTICLE - is to move your page into your userspace. It is now at User:Foongting/RegAni - The kid's wonder. When you have finished, please mark it for deletion by putting  at the top (two curly brackets each side).

If someone else suggested to you a school project which involved putting a temporary article into Wikipedia, please explain to them that that is not the sort of thing the site is for. There are useful ways in which Wikipedia can work together with schools - see WP:School and university projects and the WP:FAQ/Schools - but unsuitable articles will be deleted, whoever puts them in, and pleas of "Just leave it till my project is over" will cut no ice. What I have done for you should not be taken as a precedent.

 * Wikipedia is not a free host. Not even in user space. Please see comparison of wiki farms for numerous other places that will accept your work. I have e-mailed you the text. &mdash; RHaworth 21:22, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Topic for a new article
Hello Foongting, please note that temporary articles are not permitted on Wikipedia. This is because articles must be on notable subjects (see Wikipedia's notability criteria), and notability is not temporary. If you would like some ideas on what topic to write an article on, you might want to visit Requested articles, where there are article requests on various topics. You might want to start off with a userspace draft, and later move it into the article namespace. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my user talk page. Happy editing! --Joshua Issac (talk) 13:29, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
