Proposed deletion of Fish hook theory


The article Fish hook theory has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Insufficiently notable for an article. The sources are scant. Some are primary and some are not RS. If you try to research this 'Fish Hook Theory' this does not even seem to be the most widely used meaning it has (It seems to be something religious which I did not look at closely as it very obviously was nothing to do with what this article is about.) Even with these false positives I see 28 hits in Google News. There is also the 'Fish Hook Effect' but that is something to do with meteorology. This barely pokes its head out of the Google hits for that stuff. It seems to be one person's personal theory with a few fans. There is nothing wrong with that but it doesn't qualify for an article. Wikipedia is for stuff that is already notable not stuff that aspires to be notable and seeks to become so via Wikipedia."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.

AE Nea Krini moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, AE Nea Krini, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Disambiguation link notification for October 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited University of Macedonia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Greek. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

October 2021
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Travelling salesman problem a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Requests for history merge. '' I understand the reasoning for what you did, but we need to make sure to move pages correctly to preserve the edit history. The proper venue to request this would be WP:RM or WP:RM/TR''  ASUKITE  22:36, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

Stats in football players' infoboxes
Hello, I'm Jaellee. Welcome to Wikipedia! I just wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Shinji Kagawa were not quite right. When updating statistics within the infobox of a footballer, please make sure you update the timestamp at the same time, so that both readers and fellow editors know when the information was last updated.

You can do this by replacing the existing timestamp within the club-update or pcupdate parameter for club stats, or the nationalteam-update or ntupdate parameter for international stats. For articles that use a DMY date format, use five tildes, or for MDY dates, use mdytime. This will generate the specific time the update was made.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you, --Jaellee (talk) 12:54, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
