Speedy deletion nomination of Arthur Zaharchuk


A tag has been placed on Arthur Zaharchuk 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Your recent editing history at Arthur Zaharchuk shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Important notes
One - you are NOT allowed to remove speedy deletion tags from articles you have created. There is a way of contesting deletion, but it does not include putting a copy of the warning notice posted at your talk page onto the article itself. Two - if you revert a change to an article more than three times, you can be blocked from editing. This doesn't apply to reverting vandalism, so Lakun.patra would have been able to carry on reverting you. Instead, they backed off and contacted me to be on the safe side. Three - to have an article on Wikipedia, the subject has to be notable. That means our definition of notable. For biographies, see WP:BIO. This has to be backed up with references that are reliable and independent WP:RS. Facebook etc, blogs, wikis, webpress or weebly sites, forums, YouTube etc, Twitter etc, or the subject's own site do not count as reliable and independent. Four - if you are the subject of the article, we advise that you do not write it. Please see WP:AUTOBIO. Peridon (talk) 17:34, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
