Regarding Speedy Deletion

Hello, Harinduw. Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia. I'm sorry, but a page you created, Lion Dharshana Weerakoon Mjf , Maf, has been deleted as meeting one or more of the Categories for Speedy Deletion.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects of articles must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information. '''Someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. '''

Any deficiencies should be remedied before reposting as they can lead to repeated deletions.

Wikipedia is not a webhost. You may wish to consider alternative outlets.

If you want to try again, please use the Article Wizard or articles for creation to guide you through the creation process.

You can make test edits in your sandbox.

You may find this tool useful for finding sources: Google custom search

Please see Wikipedia:Citing sources. Template:cite has templates you can use in citing your sources. Place the template at the bottom of the page, and references cited in the text will appear there. Don't feel discouraged. My first attempts at creating articles were deleted too. YOU CAN ASK FOR HELP AT THE TEAHOUSE  -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 14:19, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
