RE: Article request: "User talk:EmilyHannah" RE: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=User_talk:EmilyHannah&diff=0&oldid=460051816
Dear Wikipedia editor, Blanchardb and other folks,
I am writing to you on the behalf of my students who recently submitted an article request. Their article was decline due to two reasons:
1. They submitted using an essay format versus an article format. Yet my student clearly stated in their submission that they understood the format was not appropriate for the Wiki article and that they has submitted in this format for the editor's content review.
2. There sources where not acceptable. My students are still developing their content and will have more sources. Regardless, the source they seem to have been penalized for is a URL for their professional organization. For the information they wish to publish to the public their professional organization is an appropriate reference. We are unclear as to why this reference was unacceptable.
My students are involved in a Wiki project. They have investigated issues relevant to equity in American education. In doing so they have researched the Wiki to look for articles that lack relevant information that parents, guardians, teachers and community members may need in regards to schooling. This project is part of our students developing an understanding of the role of technology and information in civic engagement.
We ask that you please reconsider their article. If so please let Emily and Hannah know what kinds of changes you require and they will respond.
Many thanks, Sandi
Sandra B. Schneider, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Education Graduate Faculty, Mathematics Initiative School of Teacher Education and Leadership Radford University sschneider@radford.edu 540-831-5329

Hello Blanchardb. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of GermaNet, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: not about a "web site, blog, web forum, webcomic, podcast, browser game, or similar web content" therefore ineligible for A7. Thank you. SmartSE ( talk) 19:56, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
Hello Blanchardb. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of The Honeydogs, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: signed band, and has reliable sources. Consider taking to AfD instead. Thank you. Martijn Hoekstra ( talk) 20:57, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
User:Kupike simply copied existing article on Timothy Steele into user page. How is this at all constructive? Aren't there "sandboxes" for the purpose of experimentation? Publishing a copy of an article in a user page can't accomplish anything other than creating confusion as far as I can see. Jpcohen ( talk) 01:25, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
It's a headache when someone begins a stub and then abandons it after it gets tagged. I appreciate that you had the good sense to decline the speedy, [1] and feel rather lucky that I came accross it the day before its 7-day grace period ran out. Acting upon available sources, I have begun expanding and citing the article. Good looking out. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 21:11, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
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.
Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, ICarly (season 6. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - ICarly (season 4). 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 ICarly (season 4) - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. 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. HurricaneFan 25 01:49, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Hello Blanchardb, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I have converted the speedy deletion tag that you placed on Association pour le rayonnement de l'Opéra national de Paris to a proposed deletion tag. The speedy deletion criteria are extremely narrow to protect the encyclopedia, and do not fit the page in question. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Guerillero | My Talk 03:52, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi - I'm new to editing and saw your comments re lack of references and sources on the Mosaic Publishing page. I have added some now, albeit the references are currently to one source.

Hello, I just wanted to say thank you very much for your help with the John Torboss Underhill article.

Placepromo ( talk) 19:33, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
Dear Blanchardb,
I'm asking you gently to read the articles before marking them for deletion. Marking the article " Irish Fact Finding Delegation On Bahrain" as "No evidence provided for the notability of this report, independently of the uprising it chronicles. This report may be used as a source for the 2011 Bahraini uprising article, but there's nothing that warrants an article dedicated to the report itself." clearly illustrates that you haven't read the article, because there was no report issued.
Please state specific reasons for deletion of each article, if it's only a matter of providing reasons for notability for each of the articles, then that can be provided. If you suggest moving the less notable reports to 2011 Bahraini uprising article, that's fine as well, but doing it the way you currently are doing is just non sense and I find it annoying. Bahraini Activist ( talk) 16:23, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

initial documentation about the project and also the

Hi Blanchardb. You nominaed the page on I3d.net for speedy deletion. Although I can follow your reasoning I do think that you made a very quick decission on nominating. Based on the time the page was initially published and your nomination (6 minutes) I can't think that you put any investigation in this matter. Please see my notes in the Talk page. As said: I was still busy editing, and under that probably trying to add other viewpoints and/or changing the setup in such a way that it is more in line with other likewise companies - but didn't get the chance. Anyway: please have a look at the Talk page. Cheers, Tonkie ( talk) 00:29, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

May 2012 |
This month marks the observation of Pentecost, one of the most important feast of the Christian liturgical year. It is our hope here that all of you, regardless of your religious affiliation (if any), find that the holiday, and its accompanying activities, an enjoyable and beneficial experience. We also hope that this "Birthday of the Church" is one which gives you the same joy as the birthday of yourself or your loved ones.
Ichthus is the successor to the long running WikiProject Christianity newsletter, run under the WikiProject Christianity’s Outreach department. As such, you will continue to see information about our latest featured and good articles, DYKs, as well as new members who have joined our project. You might also see links to Christianity related news from the mainstream media!
With that, I wish you all happy reading!

As many of you may know, our unofficial mascot, dear Wikipe-tan, hasn't yet indicated any particular beliefs. However, yes, as we all know, ahem, some people might object to our beloved mascot running around in a French maid outfit.

Please post your images here.

Ichthus will spotlight a different subproject or workgroup of WikiProject Christianity. This edition will spotlight on our vital Outreach department. This comparatively small, but vital, project unit is dedicated to welcoming new editors to Wikipedia and the Christianity related content, and to providing information to the various project members, in forms like this newsletter.
The scope of articles with which this group deals is truly enormous, and, given the wide variety of material with which we deal, we would very much welcome the input of more individuals, particularly individuals who are particularly knowledgeable of the less well-known and less frequently monitored articles related to Christianity.
Speaking personally, I would be very, very gratified if we were to have this become a very, very large and active unit, with members from the broad spectrum of Christian beliefs, practices, and groups. The broader the spectrum and areas of expertise of members we have, the better we will be able to help manage the content. Please consider whether you believe you might be able to contribute in this vital area.

... in the statements contained in the Nicene Creed. I believe that the Bible is one of the two defining bases for belief. The other is the Sacred tradition, which provides us with means of interpreting the Scriptures, as well as some teachings which have been handed on by God outside of the scriptures. I believe that the Magisterium has been empowered to fill this interpretative function. I believe that clerical celibacy is a rule that should generally be followed.

Hello, I am Solarwolf bd. I'm very much new to Wikipedia and very much ambitious to become a good Wiki writer. My first work regarding my own band Seventh Sign has been recently launched in the Wikipedia system. And I must admit it's not fully complete yet. My target is to make the wiki page of my band more professional and more informative such as all the other bands' articles that exist in the Wikipedia Database. I can prove that I am fully aware about the band as I am the Lead Vocalist Tanvir Hossain Niloy himself. I know there are some lacking in my article and I also know that I do not know all the authenticated procedures of Wikipedia article writings.
I, therefore, request you to remove the Speedy Deletion tag from the article of Seventh Sign(my own band) and let me use all of the procedures to make a complete Wikipedia page slowly by letting me know how to make it complete.
I'm looking forward to get your acknowledgement regarding my band's Wikipedia page.
Thank you.

Hi Blanchardb,
why did you add Speed Deletion to Novatec Wheels article?
Is anything wrong to publish information about famous brand from bicycle industry?
Are you administrator?
If yes, the I would like to ask you to remove Speed Deletion from Novatec Wheels article.
There are also articles about Fulcrum, Zipp and other brands from bicycle industry and they are published on wikipedia.org

2012-07-22, 05:15AM CET
I know Wikipedia is not for advertising. My intention is not advertise but write general info about Novatec like is written for example about ZIPP:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipp
It's mean History, Products, Technology we use and we developed and also References.
Regarding references we will show something like this:
http://www.bikerumor.com/2010/10/25/interbike-2010-zipp-speed-weaponrys-new-sl-speed-stem-handlebars-and-posts-plus-aero-tire-rims/
For example this will be one of our reference:
http://www.bicyclingnewsasia.com/en/tech/37-general/1149-tech-review-novatec-speedy-wheelset
http://www.bikemag.com/gear/tested-novatec-diablo-v2-wheels/
Is something like this fine with you?
BTW, sorry if you feel any tone in my explanation, maybe its because my mother language is not English :) Be sure there was no tone, just I tried to explain to you reasons
why Novatec should be in wikipedia and I tried to give you some examples which should be better to understand than my explanation.
From other side you can inform me if you or any other guys from Wikipedia feel that some part of article is written in the way you think it should be. I will really appreciate it.

Dear Blanchardb,
I am still waitin to your response. When you think you will be free to look at my links?
2012-07-25, 08:49AM CET
Thanks for permission. I will ask our people to help me to prepare it and I will inform them to follow your suggestion.

RE: Article request: "User talk:EmilyHannah" RE: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=User_talk:EmilyHannah&diff=0&oldid=460051816
Dear Wikipedia editor, Blanchardb and other folks,
I am writing to you on the behalf of my students who recently submitted an article request. Their article was decline due to two reasons:
1. They submitted using an essay format versus an article format. Yet my student clearly stated in their submission that they understood the format was not appropriate for the Wiki article and that they has submitted in this format for the editor's content review.
2. There sources where not acceptable. My students are still developing their content and will have more sources. Regardless, the source they seem to have been penalized for is a URL for their professional organization. For the information they wish to publish to the public their professional organization is an appropriate reference. We are unclear as to why this reference was unacceptable.
My students are involved in a Wiki project. They have investigated issues relevant to equity in American education. In doing so they have researched the Wiki to look for articles that lack relevant information that parents, guardians, teachers and community members may need in regards to schooling. This project is part of our students developing an understanding of the role of technology and information in civic engagement.
We ask that you please reconsider their article. If so please let Emily and Hannah know what kinds of changes you require and they will respond.
Many thanks, Sandi

Hello Blanchardb. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of GermaNet, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: not about a "web site, blog, web forum, webcomic, podcast, browser game, or similar web content" therefore ineligible for A7.

User:Kupike simply copied existing article on Timothy Steele into user page. How is this at all constructive? Aren't there "sandboxes" for the purpose of experimentation? Publishing a copy of an article in a user page can't accomplish anything other than creating confusion as far as I can see. Jpcohen ( talk) 01:25, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
It's a headache when someone begins a stub and then abandons it after it gets tagged. I appreciate that you had the good sense to decline the speedy, [1] and feel rather lucky that I came accross it the day before its 7-day grace period ran out. Acting upon available sources, I have begun expanding and citing the article. Good looking out. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 21:11, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, ICarly (season 6. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - ICarly (season 4). 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 ICarly (season 4) - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. 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. HurricaneFan 25 01:49, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Hello Blanchardb, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I have converted the speedy deletion tag that you placed on Association pour le rayonnement de l'Opéra national de Paris to a proposed deletion tag. The speedy deletion criteria are extremely narrow to protect the encyclopedia, and do not fit the page in question. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Guerillero | My Talk 03:52, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi - I'm new to editing and saw your comments re lack of references and sources on the Mosaic Publishing page. I have added some now, albeit the references are currently to one source.

Dear Blanchardb,
I'm asking you gently to read the articles before marking them for deletion. Marking the article " Irish Fact Finding Delegation On Bahrain" as "No evidence provided for the notability of this report, independently of the uprising it chronicles. This report may be used as a source for the 2011 Bahraini uprising article, but there's nothing that warrants an article dedicated to the report itself." clearly illustrates that you haven't read the article, because there was no report issued.
Please state specific reasons for deletion of each article, if it's only a matter of providing reasons for notability for each of the articles, then that can be provided. If you suggest moving the less notable reports to 2011 Bahraini uprising article, that's fine as well, but doing it the way you currently are doing is just non sense and I find it annoying.

Hi Blanchardb. You nominaed the page on I3d.net for speedy deletion. Although I can follow your reasoning I do think that you made a very quick decission on nominating. Based on the time the page was initially published and your nomination (6 minutes) I can't think that you put any investigation in this matter. Please see my notes in the Talk page. As said: I was still busy editing, and under that probably trying to add other viewpoints and/or changing the setup in such a way that it is more in line with other likewise companies - but didn't get the chance. Anyway: please have a look at the Talk page. Cheers, Tonkie ( talk) 00:29, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

May 2012 |
This month marks the observation of Pentecost, one of the most important feast of the Christian liturgical year. It is our hope here that all of you, regardless of your religious affiliation (if any), find that the holiday, and its accompanying activities, an enjoyable and beneficial experience. We also hope that this "Birthday of the Church" is one which gives you the same joy as the birthday of yourself or your loved ones.
Ichthus is the successor to the long running WikiProject Christianity newsletter, run under the WikiProject Christianity’s Outreach department. As such, you will continue to see information about our latest featured and good articles, DYKs, as well as new members who have joined our project. You might also see links to Christianity related news from the mainstream media!
With that, I wish you all happy reading!

Ichthus will spotlight a different subproject or workgroup of WikiProject Christianity. This edition will spotlight on our vital Outreach department. This comparatively small, but vital, project unit is dedicated to welcoming new editors to Wikipedia and the Christianity related content, and to providing information to the various project members, in forms like this newsletter.
The scope of articles with which this group deals is truly enormous, and, given the wide variety of material with which we deal, we would very much welcome the input of more individuals, particularly individuals who are particularly knowledgeable of the less well-known and less frequently monitored articles related to Christianity.
Speaking personally, I would be very, very gratified if we were to have this become a very, very large and active unit, with members from the broad spectrum of Christian beliefs, practices, and groups. The broader the spectrum and areas of expertise of members we have, the better we will be able to help manage the content. Please consider whether you believe you might be able to contribute in this vital area.

... in the statements contained in the Nicene Creed. I believe that the Bible is one of the two defining bases for belief. The other is the Sacred tradition, which provides us with means of interpreting the Scriptures, as well as some teachings which have been handed on by God outside of the scriptures. I believe that the Magisterium has been empowered to fill this interpretative function. I believe that clerical celibacy is a rule that should generally be followed.

Hello, I am Solarwolf bd. I'm very much new to Wikipedia and very much ambitious to become a good Wiki writer. My first work regarding my own band Seventh Sign has been recently launched in the Wikipedia system. And I must admit it's not fully complete yet. My target is to make the wiki page of my band more professional and more informative such as all the other bands' articles that exist in the Wikipedia Database. I can prove that I am fully aware about the band as I am the Lead Vocalist Tanvir Hossain Niloy himself. I know there are some lacking in my article and I also know that I do not know all the authenticated procedures of Wikipedia article writings.
I, therefore, request you to remove the Speedy Deletion tag from the article of Seventh Sign(my own band) and let me use all of the procedures to make a complete Wikipedia page slowly by letting me know how to make it complete.
I'm looking forward to get your acknowledgement regarding my band's Wikipedia page.
Thank you.

I know Wikipedia is not for advertising. My intention is not advertise but write general info about Novatec like is written for example about ZIPP:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipp
It's mean History, Products, Technology we use and we developed and also References.
Regarding references we will show something like this:
http://www.bikerumor.com/2010/10/25/interbike-2010-zipp-speed-weaponrys-new-sl-speed-stem-handlebars-and-posts-plus-aero-tire-rims/
For example this will be one of our reference:
http://www.bicyclingnewsasia.com/en/tech/37-general/1149-tech-review-novatec-speedy-wheelset
http://www.bikemag.com/gear/tested-novatec-diablo-v2-wheels/
Is something like this fine with you?
BTW, sorry if you feel any tone in my explanation, maybe its because my mother language is not English :) Be sure there was no tone, just I tried to explain to you reasons
why Novatec should be in wikipedia and I tried to give you some examples which should be better to understand than my explanation.
From other side you can inform me if you or any other guys from Wikipedia feel that some part of article is written in the way you think it should be. I will really appreciate it.
