Proposed deletion of List of Areas in the 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests


The article List of Areas in the 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This article duplicates the main article, which has the map and overview section already. I'm not sure what it's purpose is.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Ocaasi (talk) 23:59, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of List of Areas in the 2010 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests


A tag has been placed on List of Areas in the 2010 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article that does not provide sufficient context to identify its subject. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template  to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Your contributed article, List of Areas in the 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests


Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, List of Areas in the 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests. 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 - 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests. 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 to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, 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; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. 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. SmartSE (talk) 00:57, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Note
Please don't be scared or bothered by all of these templates. You did nothing wrong and we appreciate your efforts. But the article you created is probably not needed given the main coverage. You can still contest the deletion if you follow the links listed above. Please let me or another editor know if you have any questions. Thanks again, Ocaasi (talk) 02:26, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
