link to British
Hello, when you want to link to the article about something British, please do not link to British, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as United Kingdom, Great Britain or British English by writing out British or British. Regards, Jeff3000 01:35, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Centennial Park Cemetery
I have added a "" template to the article Centennial Park Cemetery, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please place  on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the article's. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Matthew Yeager 04:21, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot.

It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

WP:ADEL
Hi Blnguyen, a few years ago you contacted me, offering to help and asking if I would be interested in joining the WikiProject Adelaide project. I am now at the stage where I think I need help to further develop my skills on Wikipedia and would like some assistance to do so. I also have an idea on how I could help to with the Adelaide project. Could you please contact me and let my know how I can go further on this site. Marionlad —Preceding comment was added at 11:39, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, there's lots of ways. I guess if you travel around the city you can take pictures of random streetscapes and schools and put them in the relevant suburb articles. And of course heaps of articles could do with infoboxes. But there isn't any projkect leader to instruct people to do any tasks, you can add whatever is of interest as long as it conforms with Wikipedia policies. But at WP:ADEL there is a list of tasks that variuos people have compiled.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 06:48, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Kensington Park, South Australia
Noticed this edit and thought I will give you a tip. The stub tag are generally placed at the bottom of the article, not in the middle of the article. If the article has templates, then the templates should be placed at the bottom and the stub tag below the templates. Please try to follow this format in other stub articles. Thank you.

Speedy deletion of "Wakefield Press"
A page you created, Wakefield Press, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how it is important or significant, and thus why it should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for companies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. — Jeff G. (talk&#124;contribs) 04:03, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

No content in Category:Hospitals established in 1841
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Hospitals established in 1841, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Hospitals established in 1841 has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1). To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Hospitals established in 1841, please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that '''this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Second World War places in SA
Hi Marionlad, I see you've created some articles on topics like Second World War POW camps in SA. You might be interested in a Heritage Survey of SA in the Twentieth Century 1928-1945, which mentions quite a few wartime places. I was on the team who did it. It's recently been put on the web at  Peter Bell (talk) 09:16, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Marionlad! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created  are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the list:

Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 19:42, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Fabienne Dali


The article Fabienne Dali has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Yoenit (talk) 12:29, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Robert Thomas (newspaper proprietor)


The article Robert Thomas (newspaper proprietor) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * May not be notable; few references

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. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Cssiitcic (talk) 02:09, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Autopatrolled
Hello, this is just to let you know that I have granted you the "autopatrolled" permission. This won't affect your editing, it just automatically marks any page you create as patrolled, benefiting new page patrollers. Please remember:
 * This permission does not give you any special status or authority
 * Submission of inappropriate material may lead to its removal
 * You may wish to display the Autopatrolled top icon and/or the User wikipedia/autopatrolled userbox on your user page

 * If you have any questions about the permission, don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise, happy editing! HJ Mitchell &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   05:19, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Your notice says:

"I have discovered this page "Woolshed Flat, South Australia" and am wondering if it should be renamed "Woolshed Flat (Mid North), South Australia". This is because there are a number of localities and places within Australia by this name, including a "Woolshed Flat" in the Flinders Ranges, as well as a former "Woolshed Flat" (now Weigall) in the Riverland. There are at least another two or more places with this name in New South Wales and Victoria, and probably several throughout the rest of the country. It would be interesting to know what others think of this, particularly other members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject South Australia group."

But there is no such page! What were you trying to ask? Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 02:57, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Invitation to Adelaide Wikipedia Users Group meetings
Hi, in case you're not already aware of it, a group of Adelaide Wikipedians has been meeting on a monthly basis since April, with the aim of improving the scope and quality of articles on South Australian topics. We meet at UniSA's City West campus, and our 23 July meeting will have a guest speaker from the National Trust of SA.

This coming Sunday, 6 July, we will be holding our first Edit-a-thon. This will be an opportunity for new editors to come and learn either basic or more advanced editing from very experienced wikipedians, so if you know anyone who would like to get some practice, please let them know - and beginners will be very welcome. Cheers, Bahudhara (talk) 05:39, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

Edit summaries
Hello. I have noticed that you edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! LibStar (talk) 00:28, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
