Your contributed article, 1000 digits of pi
[edit]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.
Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, 1000 digits of pi. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Pi. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Pi - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. NtheP (talk) 21:58, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

New article
[edit]You have asked me on my talk page how you start a new article. If you care to read the message already present at the top of this page this, and many other questions, will be answered. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 22:13, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Bob 225
[edit]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 Bob 225 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 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Article deletion
[edit]You can ask for an article you have created to be deleted, and if no other editor has made a significant contribution it will usually be deleted. But you cannot yourself delete articles. And incidentally you cannot own articles, so the concept of "your own" articles is null. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 22:24, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Smileyphase
[edit]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 Smileyphase requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Article creation
[edit]In answer to your question on my talk page, you can see which articles you have contributed to by clicking on the blue-link on the left-hand margin of this page entitled "user contributions".
On a different topic, please remember that this is an encyclopedia. Adding deliberately non-encyclopedic articles, such as your recent Smileyphase, is a good way to get blocked from editing. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 11:36, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
- Can I suggest, once again and most seriously, that you read through all of the pointers and guidelines contained in the blue-linked headings in the welcome message at the top of this page. It is much better not to just charge in and start making edits which get deleted; sit down quietly first and learn how to do it. So far all of your edits, except those to talk-pages, have been deleted; some because they were nonsense, two because they duplicated existing articles. Always check before creating an article to ensure that it does not already exist here, as duplicate articles do not survive. And always remember, in the context of some of your creations, that wikipedia has absolutely no sense of humour. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 11:50, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
Account deletion
[edit]You ask on my talk page how you can delete your account here. The short answer is that you cannot; accounts cannot be deleted. But you can post the template {{retired}} at the top of your userpage, and thereafter ignore it. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 23:59, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
