Welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as Major characters in the works of Tanith Lee) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. If you want to test things out, edit the sandbox instead.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of List of The Claidi Journals characters, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: The Claidi Journals. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot ( talk) 19:28, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I've noticed that you've created a number of stubs recently, and tagged them with the uncategorised {{ stub}} tag. It would be very helpful if, where possible, you could use a specific stub tag, such as {{ sf-novel-stub}} or {{ fantasy-novel-stub}} - a full list can be found here. Also, please note that articles that do not provide at least a claim of notability are more likely to be deleted. Thanks, Jeodesic ( talk) 22:28, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Boy Princess, 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 little or no context to the reader. 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.
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 article 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.

Hello, TigressofIndia. The reason that I changed Ashley's sexual orientation listing on the List of LGBT characters in film, radio, and TV fiction from bisexual to lesbian-identified (twice now) is explained in the edit history of that article, as well as showcased by simply looking at Ashley's article, which I recently fixed up. On her talk page, after I fixed up that article, I also explained more about categorizing her sexuality.
If you still feel that we shouldn't list her as lesbian-identified on the list mentioned above, then what do you suggest, besides listing her as bisexual? I really don't feel that she should be listed as bisexual, at least not until we see her really fall in love with or sexually attracted to a guy that is not in direct response to her romantic feelings for Spencer Carlin. Even then, I'm not sure we should classify her as such, since she identifies more so as a lesbian...but rejects labels at the same time. On the above mentioned list...we could list her as "Gay, possible bisexual", like what is done in concerns to Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist. I'll probably tweak some more with how to list her there, since some people may want to list her as a lesbian...while others may want to list her as bisexual.

Hi TigressofIndia, thanks for your recent edits to List of LGBT characters in modern written fiction. The way you referenced your additions didn't work, so I fixed them. Wikipedia:Citing sources is a page I've found helpful in the past. I also reverted 2 of your edits, the characters of Amber and Tony, since the link you provided didn't mention Amber, and it mentioned Tony but didn't say that he was gay. I've had a quick look for a better reference but couldn't find one. If you find one, feel free to add them back. All the best, -- Beloved Freak 14:43, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Bella at Midnight, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
Under the
criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please
see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{
hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on
the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Crusio ( talk) 12:23, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
A
proposed deletion template has been added to the article
Bella at Midnight, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's
criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "

Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on
its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Dean Shostak 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 band or musician, 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.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
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 hang-on 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. 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. -

Hi TigressofIndia!
I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!
Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

To add the category "Abortifacient" to an article is to add a medical claim. Wikipedia is rightly wary of making such claims without very good evidence.

Another editor has added the "{{
prod}}
" template to the article
Drinking Sapphire Wine, suggesting that it be deleted according to the
proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also
Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and
Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at
its talk page. If you remove the {{
prod}}
template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Hello, TigressofIndia. The reason that I changed Ashley's sexual orientation listing on the List of LGBT characters in film, radio, and TV fiction from bisexual to lesbian-identified (twice now) is explained in the edit history of that article, as well as showcased by simply looking at Ashley's article, which I recently fixed up. On her talk page, after I fixed up that article, I also explained more about categorizing her sexuality.
If you still feel that we shouldn't list her as lesbian-identified on the list mentioned above, then what do you suggest, besides listing her as bisexual? I really don't feel that she should be listed as bisexual, at least not until we see her really fall in love with or sexually attracted to a guy that is not in direct response to her romantic feelings for Spencer Carlin. Even then, I'm not sure we should classify her as such, since she identifies more so as a lesbian...but rejects labels at the same time. On the above mentioned list...we could list her as "Gay, possible bisexual", like what is done in concerns to Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist. I'll probably tweak some more with how to list her there, since some people may want to list her as a lesbian...while others may want to list her as bisexual.

Hi TigressofIndia, thanks for your recent edits to List of LGBT characters in modern written fiction. The way you referenced your additions didn't work, so I fixed them. Wikipedia:Citing sources is a page I've found helpful in the past. I also reverted 2 of your edits, the characters of Amber and Tony, since the link you provided didn't mention Amber, and it mentioned Tony but didn't say that he was gay. I've had a quick look for a better reference but couldn't find one. If you find one, feel free to add them back. All the best, -- Beloved Freak 14:43, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Bella at Midnight, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
Under the
criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please
see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{
hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on
the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Crusio ( talk) 12:23, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
A
proposed deletion template has been added to the article
Bella at Midnight, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's
criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "
What Wikipedia is not" and
Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on
its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

edit summary or on

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Dean Shostak 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 band or musician, 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.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
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 hang-on 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. 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. -

Hi TigressofIndia!
I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!
It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!
Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!
Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

To add the category "Abortifacient" to an article is to add a medical claim. Wikipedia is rightly wary of making such claims without very good evidence. There must be a source in the article that says exactly this and that meets the standards of WP:MEDRS, e.g. a review article, not a single study. Peter coxhead ( talk) 19:16, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
