Speedy deletion nomination of Red Harvest (Star Wars novel)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. Karl 334 ☞TALK to ME ☜ 16:53, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of "Bad editors"
[edit]A page you created, Bad editors, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is nonsense or gibberish.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thank you. DVdm (talk) 15:27, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

Talk page guidelines
[edit]Note. Hi again. I have reverted this edit, since refactoring other contributors' talk page messages is not allowed. See the wp:talk page guidelines.
Furthermore, please always sign your talk page messages by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of the message, as opposed to manually adding a signature, like you did here and here. Thanks. - DVdm (talk) 07:44, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
- By the way, it looks like things seem to be going a bit differently than you had anticipated. Don't let that put you down though. Look around for a while to get an idea about how things go, and take it easy. Cheers - DVdm (talk) 22:14, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
The article Bad editors has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No encyclopedic value, bad grammar.
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 {{proposed deletion/dated}}
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 {{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.
Note. Please do not remove the delete tag from the article, but try to improve the article to conform to Wikipedia standards. When you do so, the tag will be removed by others. - DVdm (talk) 08:04, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

[edit]To save you embarrassment, I have deleted Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Jmfs1701. It is far too early for you to apply. Have a look at a few of the most recently appointed admins and check their edit counts and length of service. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:32, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
