User talk:MigrantP

Welcome!

Hello, MigrantP, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Okabu, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type helpme on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Again, welcome!  Teapot  george Talk  20:26, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Okabu


A tag has been placed on Okabu, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

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 hang-on 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.  Teapot  george Talk  20:26, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

About upcoming releases
I saw your note on User:RHaworth's talk page about Okuba. You may want to take a look at WP:CRYSTAL, which explains that, in fact, we do not want articles (or, in most cases, info in articles) about future releases not yet confirmed. There are exceptions, of course. If the media (video game, movie, etc.) is receiving a lot of press already--that is, that the pending release is itself notable--then an article may (but isn't necessarily) warranted. But just announcements that a video game is coming out do not meet that standard. You can get an idea of how high the standards are at WP:NFF, which is the rules for determining whether an upcoming film is notable enough for its own article. If you know of other upcoming video game articles which you think are also not notable, please feel free to bring them to an admin's attention, or to actually nominate them for deletion yourself. I'm not an admin, but I'd be happy to help you learn about the distinctions between what can be an article and what can't, and certainly happy to help delete anything that isn't notable. I certainly don't claim to have perfect knowledge on the subject, but I do like help keeping the encyclopedia tidy when and where I can. Qwyrxian (talk) 05:36, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
