Speedy deletion nomination of Maheswar Neog


A tag has been placed on Maheswar Neog requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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. Wgolf (talk) 22:59, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Anaconda
Hello, I'm Montanabw. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Anaconda, Montana because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Your edits were unencyclopedic in tone (we don't write in the second person informal for an encyclopedia) and removed standard formatting. Please be more formal in your writing. Montanabw (talk) 17:35, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Hello Hepplerb. I received your message and am copying it over here so we can keep the discussion in the same place: You wrote:


 * "My name is [redacted] and my talk wiki page is User_talk:Hepplerb. We are doing this wiki page on Anaconda, Montana. We are doing it for a class project in Fred Moodry Middle School in Anaconda, Montana. We are a honor class and our teacher has approved of it. Please do not edit the page. We are not trying to be rude."

Let me explain a little bit about how wikipedia works. First off, it's an encyclopedia that anyone can edit, which is both a strength and a weakness. You can add material, but so can anyone else. You cannot dictate to anyone what can and cannot be added to an article. You also do have to follow some of the basic rules of wikipedia for tone, style and content. I am glad your class wants to improve the Anaconda article and I would be glad to help you, but you have to do it not only according to the rules your teacher sets but also the rules of wikipedia. You should show this message to your teacher and we can discuss how everyone's needs can be met. But a couple things now to help you:


 * 1) To see how we structure articles about cities on wikipedia, you might want to look at Missoula, Montana or (for a smaller town) Ashland, Oregon, both are what we call "good articles," which means they pass wikipedia's standards for good quality footnotes, sources, writing style and other criteria.
 * 2) You can ask me or any other experienced editor for help if you need to; I'll watchlist your talk page so we can continue to talk here if need be.
 * 3) Your teacher (and you, if you'd like) need to read School and university projects and Student assignments: To note "Student assignments can help improve Wikipedia, but they can also cause the encyclopedia more harm than good when not directed properly." Also note, "Instructors are expected to have a good working knowledge of Wikipedia."
 * 4) The two biggest mistakes you are making in the article are as follows:
 * Too many errors in spelling, punctuation, grammar and removing the underlying syntax that makes wikipedia articles look the way they are supposed to.
 * Too informal a tone and too much opinion. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and must have a formal and neutral point of view. Saying things like "great place to take a hike" is opinion. Saying "you can take a hike" is too informal (we don't say "you" in formal writing,) Saying  "people can go hiking near Anaconda" is a neutral fact.  Do you see the difference?
 * 1) For your own safety, don't tell us your real name, I had your name redacted from the message you left on my talk page, just as a precaution. Wikipedia, like the rest of the internet, is a "big city" and while most of us are pretty nice people, it's best to be safe.

I hope this helps and I appreciate you letting us know that this is a class project. It's a tough job to edit wikipedia if you are in middle school, as you are held to an adult standard; even university classes sometimes have problems if they don't understand the standards. Good luck and I will try to help you out as you go along. Montanabw (talk) 16:16, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either: This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
 * 1) Add four tildes  ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment; or
 * 2) With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (Insert-signature.png or Signature icon.png) located above the edit window.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 21:41, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

All well
Got your message. For your own online safety, I recommend that you DO NOT sign with your real name, OK? Just do like the nice automatic message said above... sign with four tildes - it looks like this: ~ and that will automatically insert your user name and the time of your message. You can also answer here, you don't have to go over to my talk page (unless you really want to). Montanabw (talk) 21:55, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Sorry
Hello,

This is Brett Heppler again and my Wiki is User_talk:Hepplerb. I am not sure if my friend did this but my friend might have gotten into my wiki account and said a bunch of mean things to you. Please do not be offended by it if he did. Thank You.

Sincerely,

--Brett Heppler (talk) 22:29, 14 May 2014 (UTC)Brett Heppler 5/14/14


 * It's OK, just don't put your real name in on wiki, you're just a kid. No worries, there are adults around here a lot less polite that you are! :-)   Montanabw (talk) 01:41, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
