Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your recent edit appears to have added incorrect information, and has been reverted or removed. All information in the encyclopedia must be verifiable in a reliable published source. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

Speedy deletion of Scott T. Norman
A tag has been placed on Scott T. Norman 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 or group of people, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, 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), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you. --  Darth Mike  ( join the dark side ) 13:40, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Ropen. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 22:33, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Ropen
Consider this a final warning - if you once more add grossly misleading material to the Ropen article, as you have done by selectively quoting a source in such a way as to imply the opposite conclusion to that which the source supports, I will report the matter at WP:ANI, and ask that you be topic-banned or blocked. Wikipedia does not lie to its readers. AndyTheGrump (talk) 22:34, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
