Speedy deletion nomination of Alexis Ayaana
Hello Prospectresearch,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Alexis Ayaana for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. TheLongTone (talk) 09:20, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

Alexis Ayaana
Following your email, I spend some time copy-editing Alexis Ayaana including making Inline citation. Please consider undoing your last three edits, they have basically only made the article worse. I will post you a welcome message with some good links. Sam Sailor Talk! 11:45, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

 * In this edit you broke a number of references be removing the tags. This is not getting automatically fixed; other editors are attempting to correct it and you are reverting them. What "issues status" do you think the reference tags are causing? VQuakr (talk) 18:10, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Alexis Ayaana. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.
