Speedy deletion nomination of Cross and Passion Ballycastle

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 Cross and Passion Ballycastle 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 club, 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Antrim Intermediate Hurling Championship

Hello Gaawiki,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Antrim Intermediate Hurling Championship for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. Take a look at our suggestions for essential content in short articles to learn what should be included.

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.

About your "user name"

Hi Gaawiki, and again welcome to Wikipedia. I'm Shirt58 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log), a long-time English language Wikipedia editor from Melbourne, Australia.
I think it might be a good idea for you to change your username. "Gaawiki" might suggest that you are editing this wiki on behalf of the GAA. From your contributions there is some appearance that this might be the case, but I don't think so.
That said, I strongly suggest that you ask for a change of username.

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you moved text from Páirc Mac Uílín to McQuillan GAC Ballycastle (your addition has since been removed). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:15, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dianna I created the original content that I copied across so I did not see the need for the attribution as I also created the content on the destination page. Could you please reveres this and continue with my deletion of Páirc Mac Uílín.Thanks Gaawiki
