Proposed deletion of Gavin van peperzeel
Hello, Mixythepixie789. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Gavin van peperzeel, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Gavin van peperzeel to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Thanks, Wgolf (talk) 02:54, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Hallo Mixy, and welcome to Wikipedia. Please have a look at the changes I've made to the stub you started at Andrew Whittington (tennis): There's a lot to learn about editing Wikipedia, but it's an interesting journey. Happy Editing! Pam D  09:11, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
 * We don't start with a reference: references are shown after the content for which they are the source
 * Infoboxes and other templates come before the article content
 * We use bold for the title of the article when, as it usually does, it's the start of the opening sentence
 * Don't forget to add punctuation, like the full stop at the end of the sentence. References go after punctuation.
 * It's really useful to add the "Defaultsort" which makes him sort alphabetically by W, not A, and the birth date category and the "living people" category. There's a simple way to do all three at once, if you add 1993 The template "L" has to be "substituted"; its first parameter (between the first pair of vertical lines) is the birth date; second parameter death date where there is one; third parameter the "sort key". If you're going to be creating many biographical articles, it would be a  useful trick to remember.  Someone's going to follow up and add these things to the article if you don't, but you could help the encyclopedia by doing it sooner.
 * Also, if you are adding templates, please either leave the date blank or add this month's date: it is confusing if an article created Feb 2014 has a template dated 2010! Pam  D  09:19, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Gavin van peperzeel


The article Gavin van peperzeel has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Fails all aspects of WP:NTENNIS.

While all constructive 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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
