Disambiguation link notification for June 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2013 IRB Pacific Nations Cup, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Eric Wilson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your contributed article, 2014 Dubai Sevens


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, 2014 Dubai Sevens. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – 2013 Dubai Sevens. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at 2013 Dubai Sevens – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions.

IRB sevens world series events are traditionally named after the year where they actually take place. The mis-title on the article meant that I actually created the real article after you, but it is more complete so I marked yours for deletion. Iberichard (talk) 01:14, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of History of women's rugby union matches between Canada and France


The article History of women's rugby union matches between Canada and France has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "There is no distinguishable rivalry between these two sides, which produce WP:GNG coverage of the rivalry itself, so fails WP:NRIVALRY. Also violates WP:NOTSTATS and WP:NLIST"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
