Notability of Patrick Woods
A tag has been placed on Patrick Woods requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 22:06, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

March 2009
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Blood Meridian has been reverted.

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \bexample\.com (links: http://www.example.com ).

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 04:46, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Skwimua! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to insure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the article:

Greetings
I hope my message to you is not too late. I see that a "bot" sent you a Welcome note in March 2009, but a person should have followed up, and I apologize for this. If you are new to the Wikipedia, or at least just the English version of the Wikipedia, there are probably quite a few questions you might have, and it's admittedly stressful not to have a full understanding of all the tools (and editors who are happy to assist any newcomoner with positive intentions). If you are like me, often it's really tempting to just jump into the editing and contributing process even before being familiar with the tools and policies necessary to do so. And, if like me again, I'm sure it's frustrating to get messages from automated "bots" that attempt to regulate photo uploads and creation of new articles when you plunge in head first. If these are all possible issues for you, or even if not, please feel free to leave a note on my talk page. I placed a fairly well-formatted Welcome template at the top of your talk page here which contains a lot of the answers to common questions, but nothing beats the help of others who have been newcomers themselves. Contact if you wish on my talk page; I'm fairly well versed in many of the Wikipedia policies and can assist you in particular if you wish to upload photos to any articles; particularly that of musicians. I am a biographer of musicians here. If I don't have the answers, I can find someone who does most of the time. I'm very sorry that it took a year before anyone greeted you here and offered help. If it is not too late, Welcome! --Leahtwosaints (talk) 22:36, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
