User talk:Zen5328

Welcome!

Hello, Zen5328, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Lowcountry High Rollers, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type helpme on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Speedy deletion nomination of Lowcountry High Rollers
A tag has been placed on Lowcountry High Rollers 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 club, 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 guidelines for people and for organizations. 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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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.

Thank you for your comments. I did read section A7, but believe that my personal opinion on what it takes is different than Wikipedia standards. I will start a "special" article in the meantime with the hopes to build it so that it is strong enough. Also, is my data still available from my old page to use in my special page? I can't seem to locate it. Zen5328 (talk) 17:31, 13 August 2010 (UTC)zen5328


 * When I first started editing Wikipedia I had a very low opinion of some of the standards that are accepted. I still disagree with many details, but from experience I have learnt that there are actually good reasons for at least the broad outlines of the policies and guidelines. Anyway, whether you or I individually agree or disagree we have to work within the accepted framework. I have "userfied" the content of the article at User:Zen5328/Lowcountry High Rollers. You can work on it there, and if and when it is ready it can be restored as an article. However, you should be aware that this is a temporary measure to give you a chance to improve the article, and not a long term way of getting round deletion.
