Speedy deletion nomination of SyrianGirl
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
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 SyrianGirl 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 credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
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 removed 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. Berek (talk) 10:09, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
- If you wish to recreate the article, you could try fleshing it out in your sandbox, then showing it to the admin who deleted it, in this case User:Nyttend. Berek (talk) 08:11, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
Edit warring and discussion
[edit]I appreciate that you believe that the article about danah boyd should be at Danah Boyd (with a capital "B") but (a) there has been extensive discussion about this topic going back several years, (b) you haven't tried to discuss the issue at all, and (c) you've begun an edit war. Please revert your most recent edits and discuss your concerns in the article's Talk page. Thanks! ElKevbo (talk) 23:17, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.
Additionally, note that an edit war begins when an editor reverts a revert. Or another way to think about it to remember that we encourage editors to be bold in making edits and we also encourage editors to revert those bold edits when necessary or desirable and the next move should be a discussion. That's the bold, revert, discuss cycle. Note that it's not bold, revert, revert, discuss.
In any case, I look forward to you discussing your objections and evidence in the article's Talk page! ElKevbo (talk) 02:55, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
Recent edit to United States Declaration of Independence
[edit] Hello, and thank you for your recent contribution. I appreciate the effort you made for our project, but unfortunately I had to undo your edit because I believe the article was better before you made that change. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. Thank you! Mduvekot (talk) 21:23, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
