 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Manual of Style

Why is this needed?
Your recent article seems to serve no useful purpose. I hope I can catch you before you put too much work into it, because it is almost certain to be deleted based on
 * 1) the fact that there are no such lists of countries based on other racial or ethnic divides
 * 2) the list makes some rather arbitrary distinctions as to who should be considered white
 * 3) such a list would serve only as a magnet for racially divisive and non-neutral editing

If you can explain why such a list is needed, please do so. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:36, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of List of countries by White population
A tag has been placed on List of countries by White population requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may 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 administrators to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.
