Speedy deletion nomination of List of theoretical future countries

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 List of theoretical future countries requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and 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.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "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, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you made a change to an article, WLDR-FM, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 17:32, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

US 31's Michigan section

I substantially trimmed your text down. There were several issues with what you wrote, and I thought that I should explain to you in better detail what needed fixing.

You included more detail than we really need as a summary of US 31's route through the Great Lakes State. If readers want a fuller understanding, that's why we have U.S. Route 31 in Michigan and the {{main}} tag at the top of the section.
We don't need to tell people about the intricacies of the various interchanges.
It's better to say that highways "run concurrently" than "begins a concurrency".
At Buelah, US 31 turns eastward, not northward.
You inserted various unsupported opinions, and per WP:NPOV, you'd need to add specific sources for "strange cloverleaf interchange" or "world-famous Interlochen Center for the Arts".
Where the highways go after they separate from US 31 isn't necessary to understanding US7nbsp;31. Keep your text focused on the subject and avoid unrelated tangents.
The specific street names in Traverse City aren't needed in a summary of Michigan's route for the national US 31 article.
US 131 does not run concurrently with US 31, unsigned or not.
US 31 ends at the interchange with I-75 and does not extend into downtown Mackinaw City.

Finally, I've noticed that you're using the abbreviation format for US Highways from The AP Stylebook, namely "U.S. 31". We've pretty much standardized on the format from The Chicago Manual of Style to use "US 31". The article titles may still have the periods, but the abbreviations do not.

List of unused highways in Michigan

You added in 3 entries that don't fit. The topic is about highways built and sitting unused, not abandoned rights-of-way. When those three entries are removed, there isn't enough left to support a stand-alone. Actually, even with them in place, there isn't as the typical guideline is a list of 10 or more entries.

April 2016

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Traverse City, Michigan, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. As you have been told before, there is no place in an encyclopedia for your opinion. Our content must come entirely from already published sources. Can you site any source that names suburbs of Traverse City? John from Idegon (talk) 21:35, 24 April 2016 (UTC) Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did at Traverse City, Michigan, you may be blocked from editing.

Ways to improve List of most populous townships in Michigan

Hi, I'm TonyBallioni. The Bro1, thanks for creating List of most populous townships in Michigan!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please include sources so that the reader can verify the information.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Municipalities

Why did you change the name of the list of Michigan municipalities? That word was specifically chosen as it includes townships, which are municipalities, but aren't incorporated municipalities. Communities is a much broader term that would include all kinds of places that span multiple local governments. There was really no good reason to do this change without consulting people first. Change it back and open up a formal wiki debate on this. --Criticalthinker (talk) 23:33, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Buffalo Ridge Shopping Center

The article Buffalo Ridge Shopping Center has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Sources are more about the grocery store than the center itself. "Buffalo Ridge" does not seem to be a widely used name for the center (couldn't find any reliable sources that use the name for this mall). Searching under the former name of Horizon Outlets found very little, either.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.
