DECUS
Thanks for your edit to DECUS. As someone who benefitted greatly from DECUS, I like to see improvements to that article.

A minor point: you "linkified" some years ("1998" → "[1998]" etc). You may not be aware that there is some debate on Wikipedia about doing that. See Manual of Style (dates and numbers) for (lots and lots of) details. (Wikipedia is a big project, with lots of rules and conventions. BTW, we encourage people to start editing and learn as they go along; you are not expected to read and understand all our rules first.)

Proposed deletion of Connect (users group)


The article Connect (users group) has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Has been tagged as an advert since July 2014; and that itself simply re-dated the tag from a further two years previously. No refs (except to own website)."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
