If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Fiorella Mattheis 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.

Hey thanks for closing this category discussion. You may be aware that you should only rename the nominated categories of this particular discussion.

For the record, I don't see these as insurmountable problems. Current (or recent) blocks, transcluded templates, and perhaps a couple of keywords (in addition to 2014, 2015, words like sockpuppet and banned). With a little thought and a few such checks, it's not insurmountable. In addition to the reading pointed to earlier, there was an 'experiment', by the WMF I believe, to blank a sample of older pages. This may be worth looking into if it can be found. -- zzuuzz (talk) 07:31, 1 September 2015 (UTC)

Hello David, I don't know if this is an administration problem or just an editorial one, but I will ask anyway. I am trying to create a page for Ronnie Apteker, the entrepreneur and film producer who founded Internet Solutions. But Wiki thinks there already is a page called Ronnie Apteker, which is simply a blank that redirects to Internet Solutions. So, it's impossible to create a dedicated Ronnie Apteker page without removing this redirect - and I don't know how to do such things. Would you happen to know how such a problem would be overcome?

I sort of can't help but to point out that that old ArbCom case was more than twice as long ago as you have been an editor.

Hi. I have no general objection to you, or other non-admins, closing CFDs. There is a backlog, and heaven knows that section needs all the help it can get with closures. However, when you do so, as here, it's probably a good idea to wait until seven complete days have passed, per the closing instructions. Otherwise editors could object to the close as having been made too early. It looks like that one was closed about 20 hours too early. (In this case, I don't think it's necessary for you to re-open it. This is more of just a note for the future.) Thanks, Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:24, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

I sort of can't help but to point out that that old ArbCom case was more than twice as long ago as you have been an editor. So imagine a third version of yourself editing in four more years, 2020, and ask yourself if anything you did at the beginning of your Wikipedia experience would still be relevant then.

I noticed you comment re EEML and would like you to know that I have partially responded to it as former member of this group. In part because MVBW was member of it as well, which you are probably unaware.-- MyMoloboaccount ( talk) 20:19, 28 February 2016 (UTC)

The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar |
Thanks for the diligence you shown in fighting vandalism on my user page. I can only assume you do that a lot, so here's an Anti-Vandalism Barnstar to show my appreciation. — Gordon P. Hemsley→ ✉ 05:14, 29 February 2016 (UTC) |
this is a college IP address, so I have no idea who edited the article in question, re: basketball. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.56.28.116 ( talk) 08:37, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
Hi. I have no general objection to you, or other non-admins, closing CFDs. There is a backlog, and heaven knows that section needs all the help it can get with closures. However, when you do so, as here, it's probably a good idea to wait until seven complete days have passed, per the closing instructions. Otherwise editors could object to the close as having been made too early. It looks like that one was closed about 20 hours too early. (In this case, I don't think it's necessary for you to re-open it. This is more of just a note for the future.) Thanks, Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:24, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
