Speedy deletion of Sheaf extension
A tag has been placed on Sheaf extension, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. LAA Fan  17:01, 15 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Regarding this article... What is it, exactly? We need something like "Sheaf extension is a mathematical theory that describes..." or what have you. Articles where it's not clear what the subject is can be deleted on sight by an admin; I've declined to do this, but someone else might unless we can provide context (and, preferably, Reliable sources).

 * I've expanded the lead a bit; you'll want to doublecheck my work to ensure that I didn't go too far afield. We do still need some sources, though - and I have no idea where to begin looking. Thanks, UltraExactZZ Claims~ Evidence 17:11, 15 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I've made a few changes to the article, too. If it still doesn't make sense, feel free to delete it, it's not terribly important... I just thought it would be nice to have a wikipedia article about this, for completeness so to speak, since there are already articles around about very many other types of "extensions", just not about sheaf extensions. BTW, a bigger project would be to give the page "Extension (Mathematics)" a better structure - for someone who has a lot of wikipedia experience and knows some maths...

 * The article looks quite good, now - no worries about it being deleted. As for Extension (Mathematics) - if my checkbook balances at the end of the week, I know I should quit while I'm ahead. That said, I'll watchlist it and see if there's something I can do to improve it a little. In any event, good work on this article. Best, UltraExactZZ Claims~ Evidence 19:56, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
