Speedy deletion nomination of Carries the Otter
Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Carries the Otter, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Sheeana Talk 22:09, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Hello LearningTree -

While there may be a place in this article for the information that you are trying to add, it would not be where you are adding it and more importantly how you are adding it. Bluntly, the writing is substandard English and almost incomprehensible, rife with errors in grammar, punctuation, and spelling. The edit has no form or organization - it is a rambling collection of information about the battle's aftermath. It is not sourced - simply adding the title of a book is not providing "sourcing" - you should at least look at the formats that all the other editors are using, which include the use of templates such as here:.

If you want to insert this perspective on the battle, please try to

a) rewrite it carefully, using spell check and grammar check on your computer;

b) place it in the section entitled "Aftermath." What you are presenting - and what you are trying to say - is not a controversy. You are citing a misapprehension and then correcting it. Start a new subsection under "aftermath."

c) Find the pages in the book that you added to the reference list where the discussion of the screams and the bloody shirt is clarified, and then put a reference after you addition. You would fill in as much as you could from the "cite book" template linked above.

Fill in as many of those spaces as possible - you don't need to fill in things like "coauthors," "location," "urL = but the rest are important, especially ISBN, which is located on the page in the book where all the publishing information is, and also sometimes on the back of the book.

You can see the correct format by clicking edit on any section with footnotes and seeing how other editors have used the format for sources.

This is the correct way to add information to a Wikipedia article. Sensei48 (talk) 17:30, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Little Shield
A tag has been placed on Little Shield 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

 * Hello Leaningtree, just to let you know, I have recreated the article with some more info from various sources and text from existing Wikipedia articles. De728631 (talk) 21:50, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

I'm assuming you were referring to Two Moons
The problem is, as Sensei48 pointed out above, is that the writing is almost completely unintelligible and almost indistinguishable from vandalism. You'll note that your recent edits have all been reverted for the same reasons. If you want your edits to stick, start providing sources and writing is something similar to standard English. Rambling screeds won't last very long at all and represent a waste of your time and of the time of the people who have to try to decipher it. Majorclanger (talk) 22:19, 13 August 2010 (UTC)


 * The lack of capitalization and punctuation in your reply on my talk more than makes my point. Not to mention the obvious misuse of the word "intelligible."  Majorclanger (talk) 22:25, 13 August 2010 (UTC)


 * And the further reply indicates that you're completely missing the point. Majorclanger (talk) 22:26, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
