Please do not continue to re-add Beaver Bank to the Lower Sackville article. It is not particularly notable, and should not be mentioned. Additionally, please do not attempt to advertise Beaver Bank with glowing mentions in the article; this violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. &spades;P M C&spades; 20:40, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I couldn't find very many Google hits for Beaver Bank that weren't simple address listing, so I concluded it wasn't notable. Then I looked up the other neighbourhoods, and found little for them as well. So I've simply removed the entire neighourhoods section as non-notable. &spades;P M C&spades; 19:53, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from articles you have created yourself. Please use the template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Oli Filth 01:00, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from articles that you have created yourself. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Oli Filth 01:06, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Beaver Bank Monarch Drive Elementary, 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 by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 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. SamBC 02:02, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Beaver Bank Monarch Drive Elementary
A template has been added to the article Beaver Bank Monarch Drive Elementary, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest 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. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. 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. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with db-author. DES (talk) 05:33, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Which article?
Which article is that? I am not a mind reader nor do I have a photographic memory. Postcard Cathy 16:29, 27 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, you are very welcome! Can you categorise it please, btw? And do something to improve it such as adding notable alumni, Blue Ribbon School award type things - anything that might help keep the article so mr. grumpy editor doesn't get his way! :) Postcard Cathy 16:34, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * A week or two ago I prod'd an article that basically said John Jones is a pro football player in SDFkJFLDJ Town.   Well, to me that is not notable.  A notable person - in this case an athlete - has honors, awards, is team MVP, etc.   If that was true for John, it wasn't listed.  The guy got really po'd cause I did it while I wasn't signed in.  So he literally said "What right do you as an anonymous user have to prod my article?"  I told him if he wrote a better article I wouldn't have had to prod it and as long as Wiki allows anon users to prod articles, that is where I have the right to do it.  So, I signed in, and against the rules reproded the article.  I asked him if that was better.  He told me if I had done in it the first place, he never would have said what he did.  At the end, I just told him he was pissed at something whether it was that he was pissed his article got prod'd, something else, or both but don't get angry at me because of it.  If it was because his article was prod'd, I told him not to waste his energy getting mad at me and instead look at the reasons I prod'd it in the first place and then improve the article.  IIRC, he left it as is and the article was deleted.  Such BS if you ask me.  Postcard Cathy 16:45, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you've been adding your signature to some of your article contributions. This is a simple mistake to make and by now should have been corrected. For future reference, the need to associate edits with users is taken care of by an article's edit history. Therefore, you should use your signature only when contributing to talkpages, the Village Pump, or other such discussion pages. For a better understanding of what distinguishes articles from these type of pages, please see What is an article?. Again, thanks for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! Thank you.

Speedy deletion of Demetrius Joyette
A tag has been placed on Demetrius Joyette 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 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance 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 (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.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from pages that you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, then please place  on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the page's. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. --lifebaka (Talk - Contribs) 21:43, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Ok thank you for the information. Komain72 (talk) 00:44, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Capitalization of headings
The Wikipedia style for capitalizing headings is to use "sentence case" instead of "title case", e.g.,


 * Important things to know about this subject

not:
 * Important Things to Know About This Subject

This may be unfamiliar to many editors who believe that or have been taught that "title case is the right way to capitalize headings". It isn't the "right way", it is one style. Wikipedia has, for better or worse, chosen to follow a different style, i.e., capitalize the heading the same way you would capitalize any sentence:
 * capitalize the first word,
 * capitalize any proper nouns (people, places, organizations), and
 * begin all other words with lower case letters.

Unspecified source/license for Image:Kyle 2008 5 day track.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Kyle 2008 5 day track.gif. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like PD-self (to release all rights), (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Gallery tlb 2.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Gallery tlb 2.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:07, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Harold T Barrett Junior High.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Harold T Barrett Junior High.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 00:05, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
