A tag has been placed on Kenya roads board, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that
administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{
hangon}}
to the page and state your intention on the article's
talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Firstly, look at WP:BIO - not everyone gets an article. A CEO of a big enough company usually does. A Communications Officer or a Financial Officer - no. A university professor - usually yes. A school headteacher - not unless the school is Eton or somewhere like that. Of course, notability other than their job can be added - but it must be notability by OUR standard, not whatever it says in your dictionary. References to prove notability should fit in with WP:RS - reliable independent sources. Secondly, don't remove speedy deletion tags from articles you have created. This can lead to blocking if done too often, and after being warned about it. Third, do remember that this is an encyclopaedia, and that not everyone or everything gets an article. Two good people to talk to about articles are User:Tokyogirl79 and User:MelanieN. Very good knowledge and good at finding references if needed. Peridon ( talk) 13:28, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi, I saw your comments on Talk:Dorothy Ooko, and I'm of the same opinion as Peridon above. The problem with this article is that it doesn't say anything special or worthy of notice that Ooko has done. There are lots of people who work as communications managers, and lots of people who work at Google. Not all of them have articles! More problematically, although the article has sources, they're either blogs (which are generally unreliable) or don't give any more information than basic facts. I might be able to argue against the {{ db-corp}} tag, but I think I'd have a hard time getting a "keep" result if it went to WP:AfD as it stands. Have a look at our notability guidelines for people and this example, which shows how to put a "hook" on an article's first draft to make it stand out. Also, consider using the Article Wizard to write new articles, which get reviewed at Articles for creation, and are a little more forgiving. Don't get me wrong, we need to get more articles from people in this part of the world to help counteract Wikipedia's systematic bias, but we can't just bend policies to do it, unfortunately.

Please slow down and read the instructions. If you want to oppose the deletion of this category, the category talk page is not the place to do so. As is said above, and on the deletion template, you need to comment at the category's entry on the Categories for discussion page. But please note that there are no similar categories for Influential Italians, Vietnamese, Canadians etc ... so you would have to produce some reasoning for creating a whole new category of categories, or a reason why Kenyans should be treated differently from every other nationality!

Hello, Mpmayenge. It has been over six months since you last edited your Articles for Creation draft article submission, " Millard Ayo".
In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia
mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Onel5969 TT me 13:08, 23 February 2016 (UTC)
User:Dr. Blofeld has created Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/Contests. The idea is to run a series of contests/editathons focusing on each region of Africa. He has spoken to Wikimedia about it and $1000-1500 is possible for prize money. As someone who has previously expressed interest in African topics, would you be interested in contributing to one or assisting draw up core article/missing article lists? He says he's thinking of North Africa for an inaugural one in October. If interested please sign up in the participants section of the Contest page, thanks.♦ -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa? Lo dicono a Signa. 01:33, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most geography, wildlife and women articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing, whether it's a river in Malawi, a Nigerian footballer, or a South African civil rights activist, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. For those of you who signed up to the North African contest, that will hopefully be held in the new year. Thanks. -- MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 21:11, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

Of course, notability other than their job can be added - but it must be notability by OUR standard, not whatever it says in your dictionary. References to prove notability should fit in with WP:RS - reliable independent sources. Secondly, don't remove speedy deletion tags from articles you have created. This can lead to blocking if done too often, and after being warned about it. Third, do remember that this is an encyclopaedia, and that not everyone or everything gets an article. Two good people to talk to about articles are User:Tokyogirl79 and User:MelanieN. Very good knowledge and good at finding references if needed. Peridon ( talk) 13:28, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi, I saw your comments on Talk:Dorothy Ooko, and I'm of the same opinion as Peridon above. The problem with this article is that it doesn't say anything special or worthy of notice that Ooko has done. There are lots of people who work as communications managers, and lots of people who work at Google. Not all of them have articles! More problematically, although the article has sources, they're either blogs (which are generally unreliable) or don't give any more information than basic facts. I might be able to argue against the {{ db-corp}} tag, but I think I'd have a hard time getting a "keep" result if it went to WP:AfD as it stands. Have a look at our notability guidelines for people and this example, which shows how to put a "hook" on an article's first draft to make it stand out. Also, consider using the Article Wizard to write new articles, which get reviewed at Articles for creation, and are a little more forgiving. Don't get me wrong, we need to get more articles from people in this part of the world to help counteract Wikipedia's systematic bias, but we can't just bend policies to do it, unfortunately.

Category:Influential Kenyans, which you created, has been nominated for possible deletion, merging, or renaming. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the Categories for discussion page. Thank you. Pam D 13:54, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
Please slow down and read the instructions. If you want to oppose the deletion of this category, the category talk page is not the place to do so. As is said above, and on the deletion template, you need to comment at the category's entry on the Categories for discussion page. But please note that there are no similar categories for Influential Italians, Vietnamese, Canadians etc ... so you would have to produce some reasoning for creating a whole new category of categories, or a reason why Kenyans should be treated differently from every other nationality!

It appears that in 2011 you changed your username from User:Limoke oscar to User:Mpmayenge. Why are you now editing under the old name? Pam D 14:07, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello Mpmayenge,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged NgREN for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Supdiop talk 13:07, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Bitange Ndemo, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page University of St. Thomas. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello, Mpmayenge. It has been over six months since you last edited your Articles for Creation draft article submission, " Millard Ayo".
In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia
mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Onel5969 TT me 13:08, 23 February 2016 (UTC)
User:Dr. Blofeld has created Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/Contests. The idea is to run a series of contests/editathons focusing on each region of Africa. He has spoken to Wikimedia about it and $1000-1500 is possible for prize money. As someone who has previously expressed interest in African topics, would you be interested in contributing to one or assisting draw up core article/missing article lists? He says he's thinking of North Africa for an inaugural one in October. If interested please sign up in the participants section of the Contest page, thanks.♦ -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa? Lo dicono a Signa. 01:33, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most geography, wildlife and women articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing, whether it's a river in Malawi, a Nigerian footballer, or a South African civil rights activist, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. For those of you who signed up to the North African contest, that will hopefully be held in the new year. Thanks. -- MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 21:11, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
