[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add content (particularly if you change facts and figures), as you have to the article Dixie Dynamo, please cite a reliable source for the content you're adding or changing. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Please do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Grozny (horse). Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 02:34, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article Ipanema Paradise has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Notability not established, unsourced.

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 {{dated prod}} 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 {{dated prod}} 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.

I have nominated Ipanema Paradise, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ipanema Paradise. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Eeekster (talk) 02:46, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Altibr. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Eeekster (talk) 02:49, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Ipanema Paradise. Marek.69 talk 02:50, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically: Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Ipanema Paradise, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 02:54, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article Dixie Dynamo has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Lacks notability

That's funny, because this horse is actual and I provided a source...
SO WHAT'S THE DEAL?!
I'm just trying to add the famous racehorses I know and who deserve to be remembered. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ElemUser (talkcontribs)
The deal is, the horses aren't clearly notable. Not every racehorse is notable just for being a racehorse. For instance, Ipanema Paradise is nearly eligible for speedy deletion because there's no clear assertion of notability; it's not clear that suffering a career-ending injury in a workout is notable. —C.Fred (talk) 02:56, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Further, Chester House has been speedy deleted for failing to clearly assert notability. Being the parent or sibling of a notable individual does not render notability to that individual, and the only claim in the article was siring other horses. —C.Fred (talk) 02:59, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

[edit]
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for disruptive editing—specifically, removing AfD templates from articles under discussion. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. —C.Fred (talk) 03:01, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article Heavenly Gaze has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Insufficient claim of notability. Being involved in a collision, even if three horses die as a result, is insufficient.

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 {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
