Greetings! I've declined your speedy deletion request for David Herskovits because you are not the original editor of the article. If you think there's some other reason the article should be deleted, please explain—especially since you'd made revisions to the article just before requesting deletion. — C.Fred ( talk) 13:55, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- I've checked the spelling against both the New York Times article cited as a reference and the contact info at Papermag; the article has been moved to David Hershkovits, the verified spelling of his last name. — C.Fred ( talk) 14:04, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- If you think the name should end in a Z, you'll need to furnish some reliable sources that confirm the spelling. If you find the sources, the article will be moved but not deleted. — C.Fred ( talk) 14:07, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Edits to Paper (magazine)
I've just reverted the changes you made to Paper (magazine). Please be aware that this is an encyclopedia, not a business directory, and encyclopedia articles are neutral, not promotional. The content you added to the article was promotional and buzzword-y, and isn't acceptable for the purpose of an encyclopedia. A fluffernutter is a sandwich! ( talk) 15:51, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
A page you created, Drew Elliot, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thank you. Falcon8765 (TALK) 18:21, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of ExtraExtra Creative
A tag has been placed on ExtraExtra Creative, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia for multiple reasons. Please see the page to see the reasons. If the page has since been deleted, you can ask me the reasons by leaving a message on my user talk page.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, 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 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. MikeWazowski ( talk) 19:35, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Hello Ncacia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things
you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a
conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's
neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.
Given your pattern of editing articles related to Paper magazine, and given your prior user name, it's clear you have a conflict of interest. — C.Fred ( talk) 19:39, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
