Proposed deletion of Pedro Ivo Serique Maiatto Dias


The article Pedro Ivo Serique Maiatto Dias has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. CtP (t • c) 20:30, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Unfortunately, your user page needs your username as the title, however, it doesn't need to be in the body of it. If you are on about creating an article, try at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Articlename. Hope this helps! Mdann52 (talk) 09:40, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Hi, João! Welcome to Wikipedia. You wrote on that page that you were "Still trying to learn how to work on wikipedia." One thing to learn is the difference between a user page like User:Joao.speciale and an article in the main encyclopedia, whose name doesn't start with "User:". User pages are there for the users, volunteers who are here to help build the encyclopedia, to say something about themselves and their Wikipedia work to assist communication within the project. So you are welcome to put something about yourself at User:Joao.speciale, though it's not a "home page" like you might have on Facebook, and should not be used for "substantial content... unrelated to Wikipedia". An encyclopedia article, on the other hand, is only for people and things that are "notable", and you shouldn't write an article about yourself - see Wikipedia is not about YOU and Autobiography for the reasons. There is good advice about writing articles at WP:Your first article. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 20:51, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
