September 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Rindja has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z85V2k4TWDs&hl=en (matching the regex rule \byoutube\.com). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 18:40, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rindja

Welcome, and thank you for your contributions. I found there was already an article with an alternative spelling for this island and have redirected the article you created to it. If you would like to access the latest version of the article you created and consider adding some material from that to the already established article you can find the link here: [1] ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 18:50, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Shelter Island, San Diego

A tag has been placed on Shelter Island, San Diego 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 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. hydrox (talk) 22:01, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shelter Island

I've redirected the article you created about Shelter Island to the existing article La Playa, San Diego, California which appears to be the correct name of the area of San Diego. I've added additional content to that article based upon the information you had contributed to the Shelter Island article as well as from other pages on Wikipedia. If you would like to contribute further to the article by adding some WP:RS I would encourage you to do so at the La Playa, San Diego, California link. Thank you for your contributions!
