Articles you've written about your relatives
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest.

If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,

A tag has been placed on Jim Kweskin, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add  on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. RJASE1 Talk  19:00, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Electraflyer, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.  brew crewer  (yada, yada) 03:21, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Based on the copyright notice and the comments on the image's talk page, their Creative Commons might not be compatible with this site's licensing; the copyright notice seems to trump everything. I'd deleted the file simply as a housecleaning measure when going through the "articles for speedy deletion" category.  I wouldn't have found it otherwise.  You might wish to visit the help desk and leave word there.  Perhaps someone with more knowledge of the licensing rights can help you.  Good luck.  --PMDrive1061 (talk) 19:30, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

PS: Once deleted, an image can't be retrieved. If you get the OK to post it, you'll have to upload it once again from the GM website. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 19:31, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Hello, I am the one who is most responsible for the deletion. A verbose explanation for why this image was deleted was placed alongside the image. This explanation was deleted along with the image. A copy of this explanation can be found here for future referencing: Talk:Chevrolet_Volt. --Cnqtvp (talk) 23:32, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Jardin Catherine-Labouré
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Jardin Catherine-Labouré, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Local park, no asserted notability. The New York Times article mentions it only in passing.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Adjusting for inflation
Hello, Jdoniach. I noticed you have been adding inflation templates to a number of articles on ships. This is problematic, as inflation only accounts for CPI, and does not work with items like ships. Please read this discussion for a full explanation of why we shouldn't adjust for inflation this way. Thanks. Parsecboy (talk) 02:47, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lyndon B. Johnson, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Medicare and Head Start (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
