Your contributed article, Kapalmaðurinn


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Kapalmaðurinn. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – The_Cable_Guy. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at The_Cable_Guy – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Ramaksoud2000 (Talk to me) 22:05, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

Your articles
Hi Frearn1: Thank you for creating Kapalmaðurinn and Holtsós. However, I think you may have got confused and put them both on English Wikipedia when you wanted to add them to Icelandic Wikipedia. I notice you have a draft of the Kapalmaðurinn article in your sandbox there. It's been deleted here, because we already have The Cable Guy, as explained above. But there is no Icelandic article on the topic, so go ahead and create the article there! You should also create is:Holtsós (click the link). I am going to make it into a short English article, but they need it on Icelandic Wikipedia too! Yngvadottir (talk) 17:08, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
