Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.

Speedy deletion nomination of Melvin Frazier

Hello DevonSoc,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Melvin Frazier 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Jon Davis (basketball)

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 Jon Davis (basketball) 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, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, 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 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.

Please be aware of Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Basketball. Jon Davis passes none of those standards. Thanks, --Hammersoft (talk) 20:24, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Writing articles

Hello DevonSoc. When writing basketball articles, can you please provide more information than just the name, team, and position. This does not demonstrate notability. Jon Davis (basketball) was briefly deleted before I put in the work to improve it and I'm not sure it would pass AfD. Maybe you should work on articles in the Draft: namespace first as you have done with a few like E. C. Matthews. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 21:09, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As is, I don't think it would pass AfD, but I could be wrong. He is not a notable player...yet. He might become so in the future, but right now; just some trivial passing mentions for second team, and pre-season stuff. The only thing of note is 3 paragraphs here. That's not much. Since he doesn't pass Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Basketball, we'd need to look to WP:GNG, and he doesn't pass that either, to my eye. @Editorofthewiki: thanks for recreating it. As is it's not an immediate CSD candidate. --Hammersoft (talk) 23:35, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion discussion about Tyler Cook

Hello, DevonSoc,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Tyler Cook should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tyler Cook .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Your submission at Articles for creation: Daniel Amigo (May 18)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Chetsford was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines for sports persons and athletes, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Daniel Amigo and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Daniel Amigo, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Chetsford (talk) 00:59, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, DevonSoc! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself!

Basketball player heights and weights

For active players, listed heights and weights are determined by their current team. Thanks. Rikster2 (talk) 13:25, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

August 2018

Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to James Allsup. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the disputed material. If the content in question involves images, you also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at User talk:Grayfell, you may be blocked from editing. Grayfell (talk) 00:09, 31 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

September 2018

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Patrick McCaw. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again.

Thanks for creating Cameron Young.

I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

When you create articles, please ensure that you have demonstrated that the subject meets notability standards. This can be done in this case either by noting he was MAAC POY (meets WP:NBASKETBALL) or including sufficient WP:RS to demonstrate the subject meets WP:GNG - preferably both.

To reply, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Rikster2}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

Can you please demonstrate notability, and add categories when you write articles? I spent a long time improving Cameron Young to the point where it won’t be deleted and you just did the same thing with this article. You are putting work on other editors doing this. Rikster2 (talk) 17:45, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also, what is your evidence that he holds American citizenship? I find this nowhere, but do know he has played for Lithuania in FIBA events (see here). Please do not add this again without citing with a reliable source. Rikster2 (talk) 20:02, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Most sities list him as being from Barrington, IL rather than Lithuania.

That's his hometown, that tells you nothing about what country he is a citizen of and his birthplace is Kaunas, Lithuania as stated in his Colgate bio and as I linked in my earlier message he has represented Lithuania at FIBA events. I find nothing that says he is American. Rikster2 (talk) 22:58, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Jalen Lecque

The article Jalen Lecque has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

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 page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
