[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. To find out more about how to make useful contributions, take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means. Also, it must give independently verifiable sources. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted. Follow the links below to learn more:

A tag has been placed on Demetritus, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. JohnCD (talk) 19:53, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • I not only read it, I did a Google search and did not find any reference to "Demetritus" in the sense of your article. So I decided it was nonsense and tagged it, and the admin who deleted it agreed (a speedy deletion takes two people). Have another go, but first learn more about Wikipedia and what sort of articles are required by following some of the links in the Welcome paragraph above, particularly the Guide to creating your first article, and note that Wikipedia articles need to cite reliable sources.

  • Well, it could have gone under WP:CSD#G3, "Pure vandalism... includes blatant and obvious hoaxes and misinformation"; but either way it was a waste of your time and mine. By the way, when you leave a message on a talk page, it's polite to end it with four tilde ~ characters ~~~~ which the system will turn into a signature of your username plus the date and time - like this: JohnCD (talk) 22:57, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
