A tag has been placed on HeathenPlaces 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 web content, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Greetings! While I don't fault you for using Unicode characters in your signature, it is a range of characters that is not commonly readable. Might I suggest that, along the lines of WP:SIG#Non-Latin, you supplement the runes with a Latin rendering of your name? That would make it a lot easier for editors to work with you, e.g., in discussions on article talk pages. — C.Fred ( talk) 12:41, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
I have reverted your edit to the JLC talk page. The matter to which you refer is nothing but a cruel and malicious unsupported rumour that has dogged Ms Curtis for over 20 years. The only attributed mention by an eminent plastic surgeon was in fact removed from his paper before publication, when he discovered his information was wrong. The story is simply not true and must not appear in the wiki article in any form whatsoever as per WP:BLP (including discussion on the talk page). Such edits by mostly sniggering adolescents have been removed on almost a daily basis ever since the JLC entry was first written. 21st CENTURY GREENSTUFF 13:31, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Well, all birds descended from a single common ancestor, so technically they're all equally similar. If you mean which modern bird most resembles the ancestor of all birds alive today, I would probably say gulls. Most evidence right now suggests that the ancestor of all true birds was a gull-like sea bird similar to Ichthyornis. The major difference would be lack of teeth and more advanced wings in gulls. If you mean which birds look the most like the kind of non-bird dinosaurs winged, feathered birds evolved from, I don't think such a thing exists on earth today. The ancestor of all feathered, winged "birds" would have looked sort of like a Compsognathus, a general body plan that is completely extinct. MMartyniuk ( talk) 11:48, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Schulzentrum Saterland 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 an organization or company, 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.

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".

The article Schulzentrum Saterland has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

Wōdenhelm, I learned of this situation from Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. I think the editors above have handled this situation rather brusquely and escalated it inappropriately and I've asked them to step away from the matter. They were well intentioned, however, and they raise valid concerns regarding the guideline Wikipedia:Signatures#Images. Please read this guideline and if you have any concerns or questions regarding it, please discuss with me the situation. Thank you. Gamaliel ( talk) 21:28, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Freejia-Vampire-Palace.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 ( talk) 22:33, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
