 * Hi there. Hey, I want to welcome you, and to encourage you to stay and to contribute more to St. Paul's Lutheran Church (Ashland, Kentucky) and related topics.  It is very unfortunate but most new editors at Wikipedia get blind-sided by articles-for-deletion actions and other negative stuff immediately, and usually get driven away.  It is very hard to get started, because there are a zillion rules that are written or unwritten, many contradicting other ones, which are all held against you.  Happily the deletion discussion about that article is going okay, and, knock on wood, it looks like the consensus decision will be that the article is kept.  UPDATE:  It was kept. The decision should be made in a week or two or three. Hang in there, and keep up the good work.  I will "watchlist" here and probably will see any reply, but feel free to contact me at my Talk page anytime, especially if I don't seem to notice something here for more than a day or two.  cheers, -- do  ncr  am  22:20, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of St. Paul's Lutheran Church (Ashland, KY)


A tag has been placed on St. Paul's Lutheran Church (Ashland, KY) 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 an organization or company, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
