Speedy deletion nomination of Rasmutis Višinskis


A tag has been placed on Rasmutis Višinskis 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.

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. --Nuujinn (talk) 02:29, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Sorry that you couldn't work things out. Now I've gone and added a comment on the 1956 Summer Games hook; I think my question there should be pretty easy for you to resolve. --Orlady (talk) 15:42, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

I did not mean to cause offense.

If you want to avoid such publicity still more thoroughly, you can have your user name replaced with [placeholder] on the Wikipedians by number of edits page.

Users do so by adding themselves to the list at Wikipedians by number of edits/Anonymous (you would be number sixty on the list as of this date.)

Again, my sincere apologies. — Robert Greer (talk) 16:14, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

An ancient redirect page of yours
Hi Miller, this is just a heads-up to let you know that I nominated Gunnar Eriksson (1980's skier) for deletion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion#Gunnar Eriksson (1980's skier). The redirect, which leads to Thomas Eriksson (skier), is pretty old and I suspect that the title was a mistake since there was a skier called Gunnar Eriksson in the 1940s. But Thomas Eriksson has never been called Gunnar and so I think the redirect is a bit confusing. --bonadea contributions talk 12:43, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations for creating articles for Olympic venue lists
Miller17CU94, I would like to congratulate you for creating articles for lists of Olympic Venues (Summer and Winter) in the English Wikipedia. So far, your progress has lasted through 1984 for the Summer venue lists and 1988 for the Winter venue lists. There are already articles created for the 2000, 2004, and 2008 Summer Olympics and the 2010 Wnter Olympics (which has already attained featured list status) but they are not in the standard that you write the articles in (no Before, During, and After the Olympics sections). Hope you'll get to edit the post-1988 Summer and post-1992 Winter Games venue lists in the near future. Jim856796 (talk) 01:38, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
