Speedy deletion nomination of Ahmed Belbachir Haskouri
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

 * If this guy is notable, create a short article in your own words . A massive dump of text copied from somewhere else is not what we need. Also, please note: we do not begin paragraphs with a space. This causes page widening and makes the text impossible to read. &mdash; RHaworth 16:41, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Refs
Re this edit: the article already contained two references. Was it too difficult for you to follow their style and do this edit? &mdash; RHaworth 16:48, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

I too have temporarily reverted your edit to the Morocco article. As you appear to be new to Wikipedia, I thought that I would take a couple of minutes to explain how to insert inline references. Regards -- Александр Дмитрий (Alexandr Dmitri) (talk) 10:11, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Inline references are preferred to general references, especially on an article like Morocco, where the book you cited needs to be attributed to the appopriate paragraph.
 * To insert an inline reference, simply add at the end of the sentence or paragraph to which it is referring.
 * The reference will automatically appear in the references section, correctly numbered. You don't need to do anything other that the above.
 * There are other, slightly more complicated ways to add a reference, especially when referring to a website. If you have any questions about this, please contact me on my talk page.

File copyright problem with File:Franco.JPG

It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

 * The 2 images downloaded from Getty images are (c) - see and are generally unusable on Wikipedia because of the license restrictions.  The other image is a copy of the one on "Commons" and we don't keep duplicate copies, so it will be deleted here in due course, while remaining on Commons.

Bibliography cleanup
I don't understand why you reverted my cleanup to the bibliography at Ahmed Belbachir Haskouri. It was a clear improvement and mostly just formatting changes. Can we discuss this at Talk:Ahmed Belbachir Haskouri? Thanks. -Colfer2 (talk) 18:13, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, my mistake. You were not deleting, you were restoring my edits! Thanks... -Colfer2 (talk) 18:16, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Fwd : - -

 * Hello.
 * First, I'll ask you to avoid vandalizing my discussion page by inserting your coms inside other users messages.
 * Second, I think that you don't get what does "properly cited" mean: It doesn't mean that the page must have 999 references, but that the references (event 2 ou 3) must be reliable and neutral, and the most important, these references must be linked to the article's subject, not to secondary facts. For example: It doesn't matter if there are 50 references about the calif's wedding, since no one is related to his assistant.
 * Third, and finally, you must understand that WP isn't a website where anybody can have a page about his uncle or I don't know who, the person must be notable.
 * Unfortunately, none of these criteria is respected by your article. I was looking on Google Scholar to try to find sth to add (or to affine) in the article, the problem is that I've got no results for the research.
 * As I wrote before on 's talk page, if no reliable reference is given, I'll as for its deletion.
 * Otherwise, you repeated the same act (OR editing) on many articles. I reverted it since no reference is given.
 * For example, too much work has been done on the article History of Morocco, and there was a consensus at the end (+1 banned user). I hope that you will respect this consensus. Discuss you changes, give reliable references, and no one will revert your edits.

Shaskouri, it would really help if you would fill in the little box called "Edit summary" each time you edit. If it cannot be explained there, use the Talk (Discussion) page for the article you are editing and mention that in the edit summary instead.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary&#32;for your edits. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you.

Thanks! -Colfer2 (talk) 22:33, 7 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Hello,
 * For the second time, I'll ask you to avoid inserting your messages inside other users' ones on my talk page.
 * The problem in the picture of Glaoui is that you replaced an already existing picture by your own one, the the description and the license became obslt.
 * An advise: upload your own photos instead of replacing existing pictures, as you did here, here and here.

File permission problem with File:Almuqripalace.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Almuqripalace.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kmeleon59 (talk) 13:47, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

He says he's thinking of North Africa for an inaugural one in October. If interested please sign up in the participants section of the Contest page, thanks.♦ -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:37, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
