Hi, just so you know for future reference, you probably should have used WP:CSD for Malik Munawar Khan Awan rather than accepting it during your patrolling. I've fixed the problems now but the thing was a massive copyright violation. This is common with articles about Indian and Pakistan, unfortunately. - Sitush (talk) 11:12, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Cleanup tag for article on December 27
Hi, could you just guide me in how to cleanup the article(St.Joseph's Indian Composite PU College as tagged by you) to meet the 'Quality Standards' of 'Wikipedia'. I mean, I want to know which are the non-essentials to be removed. Please just let me know it, I'll only edit it rather than you doing it.

Proposed deletion of File:Eastern Cape Legislature, 2014 general election.png


The file File:Eastern Cape Legislature, 2014 general election.png has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "unused, low-res, no obvious use"

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 file's talk page.

Please consider addressing 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 files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Your sandbox
Hi, I note that after a long break you edited Wikipedia again recently. I just stumbled across your sandbox while checking links. Why don't you merge your sandbox edits into the live articles The Good Wife and Helen Zille? If you just work on a parallel page in user space, it is liable to be blanked or deleted as WP:COPYARTICLE. – Fayenatic  L ondon 15:11, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
