Imhotep
[edit]Could you please explain your change to the article Imhotep (preferably on the talk page, Talk:Imhotep) before trying to restore it again? I'm not sure what you mean by saying that Imhotep is "the oldest known bearer of the papyrus scroll". A. Parrot (talk) 22:52, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
- I see what you're saying now, but the claim that Imhotep was likely the inventor of papyrus scrolls, simply because he is depicted holding one, would need a strong reliable source to back it up. The quotations from Breasted do not support your assertion. Please do not re-add the text unless you have a reliable source. It would also help if you discussed your changes on the talk page. A. Parrot (talk) 00:13, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
Okoloko, Please see and participate in the discussion I have started at Talk:Oseodion Aburime#Notability tag. As I said there, I'd be happy to work with you to make the article better. I am not an expert editor, but I do see a number of problems with the article. Thank you. SchreiberBike (talk) 01:17, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
- If you would like to have a copy of the old Oseodion Aburime article, I have a copy. Let me know if I can help. SchreiberBike (talk) 20:46, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

The article Christopher Oseodion Aburime has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. reddogsix (talk) 20:56, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Your contributed article, The Esan Language
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
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 noticed that you recently created a new page, The Esan Language. 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 – Esan language. 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 continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Esan language – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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, you can place a request here. 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. reddogsix (talk) 02:12, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
