defaultsort

Hello. I see you've created a bunch of new articles lately (with at least one source each and including categories - kudos!). Just to drop you a friendly note though... remember to include the "defaultsort" code in biographies, like this, so that the article is sorted by last name in alphabetical order in category pages.  Mbinebri  talk ← 02:18, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2

Concerning your contribution, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2, a page move cannot be done by simply copying and pasting the contents of a page into a new location, as such a process does not transfer the page's edit history and therefore violates the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) license by denying attribution to editors who worked on The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2. As a violation of the page move process, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 needs to be temporarily deleted under the speedy deletion criteria so that The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 may be properly moved in a way that will preserve its edit history. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message. If not, please refrain from editing either The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 or The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 until the latter has been deleted according to Wikipedia's speedy criterion G6 (non-controversial housekeeping).

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by visiting the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Jhenderson 777 20:23, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

^Don't worry about this comment. It's just tradition to do so. I recognized you're good faith. I used to be guilty of doing this too. So good luck editing. Jhenderson 777 20:26, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation pages

Hello, Edgars2007. When you moved The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn to a new title and then changed the old title into a disambiguation page, you may have overlooked WP:FIXDABLINKS, which says:

A code of honor for creating disambiguation pages is to fix all resulting mis-directed links.
Before moving an article to a qualified name (in order to create a disambiguation page at the base name, to move an existing disambiguation page to that name, or to redirect that name to a disambiguation page), click on What links here to find all of the incoming links. Repair all of those incoming links to use the new article name.

It would be a great help if you would check the other Wikipedia articles that contain links to "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn" and fix them to take readers to the correct article. Thanks. R'n'B (call me Russ) 21:35, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:FS Metta Logo.svg)

Thanks for uploading File:FS Metta Logo.svg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:37, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Don't be going around adding players because they have made the training camp roster. They most likely won't be making the team. They aren't notable until they have played a game. Mention they played oversees or were college players. Bgwhite (talk) 20:53, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Creating basketball player articles

Edgars - Please slow down and add a bit more to these stubs you are creating. I have been going behind you and adding very obvious categories to them (college, previous clubs, position, hometowns, American expatriate in __, etc.) - these would take you about 10-15 minurtes to add. Also, when creating professional player articles, please take the time to create an infobox using Template:Infobox basketball biography. Much of the info needed is in the external links that you have added. I don't mind going in and tweaking articles, but if you want to create them please do a more thorough job in the first place. Last - please do not use Category:American basketball players in cases where the state of birth is known. This category should be diffused where possible.

Proposed deletion of Marine Brevet

The article Marine Brevet has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Del♉sion23 (talk) 17:21, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Paris Horne

Hello Edgars2007,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Paris Horne 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. Thanks, WingtipvorteX PTT ∅ 02:14, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Paris Horne

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.

A tag has been placed on Paris Horne 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 person or group of people, 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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can 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 a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Removing Speedy at Paris Horne

Hi Edgars2007, you recently removed a deletion tag from Paris Horne. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove speedy deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the tag. Although the deletion proposal may be incorrect, removing the tag is not the correct way for you to contest the deletion, even if you are more experienced than the nominator. Instead, please use the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. Remember to be patient, there is no harm in waiting for another experienced user to review the deletion and judge what the right course of action is. As you are involved, and therefore potentially biased, you should refrain from doing this yourself. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 04:34, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Edgars2007, thanks for your interest for upload a vectorial logo for club Málaga CF. But, I had overriden this SVG a time ago, because this logo it's not the current logo, it's the old version, it was stylized lightly from the old version, you can note the situation of letters of MÁLGA CF respect the ball in center, no tonality in golden borders, more blue in the sky... etc. I'm sorry but I must revert your changes. PD: I have been searching the current logo in vectorial version in a lot of webs but it's not available for the moment, then the current version it will be only available in PNG versions.
