Student think tank
Student think tank has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt the subject might not be notable enough for an article. Please review What Wikipedia is not and Notability for the relevant concerns. An example of notability guidelines can be found at Notability (websites). If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod notice, the deletion process will stop, but if an editor is still not satisfied that the article meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may be sent to Articles for deletion for consensus.

Feud between Karl Rove and Rick Perry
Nice article. Two suggestions:
 * You've used the same source multiple times in independent footnotes. See WP:REFNAME for how to combine these.
 * I've done an edit to show (a) proper capitalization of section headings, and (more importantly) (b) how to do a full cite (see Cite news and Cite web). If you have time, it would be great if you could improve the article (and give it more credibility) by changing these two things. (Note that by combining duplicate citations, as mentioned in the first item above, there is less work involved in adding full information to the footnotes.)

Also, I don't understand at all why the accessdate for all the footnotes is "2010-09-10" (September 10, 2010). You created the article two days ago, and it cites very recent news articles, such as http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/08/13/perry-on-his-predecessor-i-love-george-bush/. It seems to me that the accessdate really should be "2011-08-30" for everything, or, if you really wrote the article a year ago (offline?), that the accessdate for sources dated after September 2010 should be more recent.

Again, thanks for taking the time to write the article, and I look forward to its improvements. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 16:52, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of Feud between Karl Rove and Rick Perry for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Feud between Karl Rove and Rick Perry is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Feud between Karl Rove and Rick Perry until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Proposed deletion of Bill Shaheen


The article Bill Shaheen has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Borderline notability at best. Most notability seems to be from riding others' coattails. WP:NOTINHERITED.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.
