Please note that per WP:KYSH standards, articles are to be written with a south-to-north or a west-to-east progression. Thanks. --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 01:57, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Also, please don't create articles that have no content other than an infobox. Articles like this have been speedy deleted in the past. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject U.S. Roads/Archive 8#If you thought stubs were safe from deletion.... --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 05:33, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Guy Blod[edit]

I have nominated Guy Blod, 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/Guy Blod. 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.

An article you created maybe deleted soon: Tools which can help you[edit]

The article you created, Guy_Blod maybe deleted from Wikipedia.

There is an ongoing debate about whether your article should be deleted here:

The faster your respond, the better chance the article you created can be saved. This is because deletion debates only stay open for a few days, and the first comments are usually the most important.

There are several tools and other editors who can help you keep the page from being deleted forever:

  1. You can list the page up for deletion on Article Rescue Squadron. If you need help listing your page, add a comment on the Article Rescue Squadron talk page.
  2. You can request a mentor to help explain to you all of the complex rules that editors use to get a page deleted, here: Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User. But don't wait for a mentor to respond on the deletion page.
  3. When try to delete a page, veteran editors love to use a lot of rule acronyms. Don't let these acronyms intimidate you.
    Here is a list of your own acronyms you can use yourself: WP:Deletion debate acronyms which may support the page you created being kept.
    Acronyms in deletion debates are sometimes incorrectly used, or ignore rules or exceptions.
  4. You can merge the article into a larger or better established article on the same topic.

If your page is deleted, you still have many options available. Good luck! travb (talk) 09:53, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
