False block warning
Hi, you have not been blocked. The block warning was left by a user who does not have the ability to enforce blocks. My apologies for first experience on Wikipedia being unpleasant. If I can be of any assistance or if you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 21:57, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Couple of pointers
Welcome to Wikipedia. A couple of tips for editing articles. Firstly, articles about geographical locations in the United Kingdom generally do not have links to months, years, decades or centuries. By this, I mean that if a building was built in Wolverhampton in 1920, then the year would not be wikilinked. The only time when this should be wikilinked is when the full date is given (the day, month and year). Secondly, content you do add to Wikipedia should have some form of citation. You can use reference tags or a link in the sentence. Unreferenced content you do add to Wikipedia can be removed without warning at any time. See WP:CITE for more information on this. Thanks and happy editing! - Erebus555 (talk) 12:27, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Murders
I have been following your trail of murder victims linked to towns Walton-on-Thames and Hersham. I am just not sure that they are relevant particularly to the nature of the town. Many tragic and happy events occur in a place, generally it does not change the nature of the place or was due to the layout of the town. Sometimes a murder ie JFK in Dallas is momentous historically and therefore needs to be mentioned. I feel these events are just sad. I just wondered if you could take this on board next time. Thanks for thinking about it. PS Would you like to put something on your user page? It's just sometimes nice. SuzanneKn (talk) 20:00, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Disambiguation pages
Just a friendly note on the disambiguation page for Jim McDonald. The manual of style says that "Each bulleted entry should, in almost every case, have exactly one navigable (blue) link. To avoid confusing the reader, do not wikilink any other words in the line". I've removed the excess links you added to the line for Jim McDonald (Coronation Street). --Fabrictramp (talk) 21:06, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

False block warning, part deux
Once again, apologies that someone is vandalizing your user page by posting false blocks. I've removed the notices, and have warned the user. This is a pretty rare occurrence -- I'm wondering if they are connected... --Fabrictramp (talk) 23:08, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

murderers
I don't think that we require an article about every murder on a life tarrif and in fact unless they are highly notable, I *think* policy is to delete them. --Fredrick day (talk) 13:11, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Victor Dembrovskis
A tag has been placed on Victor Dembrovskis 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 notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. скоморохъ 13:28, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

I think a lot of those articles will be deleted before the day is out. --Fredrick day (talk) 13:31, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Another editor has added the  template to the article Mark Martin (murderer), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process.

Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the  template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Proposed deletion of Anthony Entwistle
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Anthony Entwistle, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process
 * Does not seem to be very notable. We should not have an article about every criminal. On short mention in a list of criminals is not enough.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
