I noticed that you changed the Spl redirect into an article on sound pressure level. A couple of comments that might help you out in the future.

  1. You shouldn't remove a deletion template even if you re-write an article. You can go ahead with the re-write, but leave the deletion template present. Then you should follow the link on the deletion template and edit the discussion to indicate that you re-wrote the article and you believe it should stay.
  2. Article titles should be spelled out. Abbreviations have many meanings so things should be at the spelled out name and links from disambiguation pages at the shortened form. It turns out there was already an article on sound pressure level. I redirected Spl to SPL which provides all the meanings for SPL including sound pressure level. You may wish to take a look at sound pressure level and see if you have anything more to add to that article.

Please don't take any of this negatively. Your contributions are appreciated and I hope you add more. If you ever have questions, please let me know and I'll be happy to answer them. Thanks! -- JLaTondre 13:39, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on File:Standard Cell.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file licensed as "for non-commercial use only", "no derivative use", "for Wikipedia use only", or "used with permission"; and it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:

  • state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
  • add the relevant copyright tag and if necessary, a complete fair use rationale.

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 "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
