Re Borat Sagdiyev - the news articles you cited refer to a film that hasn't yet been released. I would say it's too early to include the cross-reference in the Borat article. Let's wait until the film is actually available. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:27, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for your kind note Mr. NawlinkWiki. Since the movie has been covered extensively by major media outlets and is in production I believe it is worth noting in the article on Borat. After all it is a highly notable subject very relevant and significant to the subject of Borat. Thank you generously for your warm consideration. Jagshemash!

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as My Brother, Borat, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

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. Uncle Dick (talk) 21:32, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dick, the aritcle is obviously not inappropriate. It is a highly notable Kazakh film by a well established director and has been covered extensively in mainstream media. Thank you sensuously for your apologies. Jagshemash! FredoMurphy (talk) 21:34, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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 My Brother, Borat 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, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or 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.

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.

Nomination of My Brother, Borat for deletion

A discussion has begun about whether the article My Brother, Borat, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/My Brother, Borat until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article..


And as the notice above stated, you are always quite welcome to comment at the deletion discussion. I personally wish to thank you for starting the article, as it has been a real treat to expand and source. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 08:33, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion closed as a "Speedy Keep"... indicating that there was enough coverage of the topic to show the notability required by Wikipedia, and to allow expansion and sourcing while the above AFD was in process. Thanks for starting this article. For the future, make note that if you start an article in a WP:SANDBOX such as User:FredoMurphy/sandbox, you'll have time to yourself expand and source articles before placing them under immediate scrutiny,thus allowing them to be expanded and sourced before a WP:MOVE to mainspace. Feel free to check out my essay Newcomer's guide to guidelines where you might find some helful advice. And again, thanks for starting the article. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 20:42, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have again removed your list of "notable participants" from the article. I don't see any good reason why such participants need to be listed, or what the criteria are for including some but leaving out others. I also checked other articles; 2010 Big 12 Championship Game doesn't have "notable participants," and like the article for the SEC game, it doesn't need it. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 01:31, 1 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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 Sue Herrera 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 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. Waterfox ~talk~ 22:32, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article John T. Morton has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No evidence of notability. Just one passing mention in the only source cited.

While all 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. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Why do you think Sue Herrera is an unlikely redirect for Sue Herera? Considering that her name has been spelled that way in one of our articles, it strikes me as being quite plausible.
That you think the director of ICE isn't notable seems absurd to me, but I would certainly be interested in your justification. Have you bothered to search for coverage in reliable sources? FredoMurphy (talk) 16:48, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
