If you are interested in Ukraine-related themes, you may want to check out the Ukraine Portal, particularly the Portal:Ukraine/New article announcements and Portal:Ukraine/Ukraine-related Wikipedia notice board. The New article announcements board is probably the most important and the most attended one. Please don't forget to announce there the new articles you create. Adding both boards to your watchlist is probably a good idea.
Finally, in case you are interested, similar boards exist at Russia portal as many editors contribute to topics related to both countries. The respective boards there are: Portal:Russia/New article announcements and Portal:Russia/Russia-related Wikipedia notice board. Of course there are also many other portals at Wikipedia or you may just get right into editing.
Again, welcome!--Riurik(discuss) 22:47, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Notability of Julian Fortuna
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/48px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Julian Fortuna requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia 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. Vianello (talk) 22:49, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Side note
My apologies for doubting your intent! The circumstances seemed fishy, but I'm willing to believe what you say. Notable or not remains to be judged by others, I s'pose (well, unless it already has been), but I apologize for being so quick to leap to condemnation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vianello (talk • contribs) 04:30, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
Is there a reason you blanked the template? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 00:43, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
Albanian players in Ukrainian league
All three of those players played for the Albanian national team so it's quite obvious they should be included under "Albania". If you look at the way players are listed in List of foreign Serie A players, List of foreign La Liga players, etc. thay're included under the country whose national team they represented regradless of their place of birth. I think the Ukrainian list should follow the same convention. Zvonko (talk) 01:49, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
