Please do not add external links to the "See also" section, as you did in the article Sufism. "See also" is for internal links to other Wikipedia articles. External links do not belong there. Thanks.  Esowteric + Talk  15:26, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Hazrat Syed Qalandar Ilm Ali Shah Jilani
'''Speedy was refused as a claim was made that the subject is a Sufi saint.   Esowteric + Talk ''' 10:30, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Hazrat Syed Qalandar Ilm Ali Shah Jilani 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 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. 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.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 09:59, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Talk:Hazrat Syed Qalandar Ilm Ali Shah Jilani, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.
