Speedy deletion nomination of Houston's First Sit-in March 4, 1960
Hello SSWalker,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Houston's First Sit-in March 4, 1960 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 [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ 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.

Ways to improve Houston's First Sit-in March 4, 1960
Hi, I'm Slatersteven. SSWalker, thanks for creating Houston's First Sit-in March 4, 1960!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Still not sure there is enough here to warrant an article

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:SSWalker/sandbox/Holly Hogrobrooks


A tag has been placed on User:SSWalker/sandbox/Holly Hogrobrooks requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.tsu.edu/about/administration/university-advancement/communications/news-reel/houston-civil-rights-movement-pioneer-and-tsu-alumna-holly-hogrobrooks-passes.php. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 deleted 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.  &mdash; jmcgnh  (talk) (contribs)  18:00, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

May 2018
Hello, I'm OhKayeSierra. I noticed that you recently removed content from Houston's First Sit-in March 4, 1960 without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

I'm not sure who you are; however, I am currently editing the page. The citations are listed on the page. Additionally, March 4, 1960, was a historic day that occurred in America that needs to be documented. It is an under told story. Houstonians are just learning about the sit-in due to work done by me and several other academics, journalists, and historians.
