Little context in Contribution new article
[edit]Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Contribution new article, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Contribution new article is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Contribution new article, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

AfD nomination of Adriano Bulla
[edit]An editor has nominated Adriano Bulla, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Adriano Bulla and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 22:44, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Flicker poem
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Flicker poem, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}}

Adriano Bulla deletion review
[edit]The word is "sockpuppet" not "suckpuppet", and I'm calling the flurry of brand new accounts that just happened to appear and offer their opinions regarding Adriano Bullo (User:Ukpoetrylive, User:Sestertium, User:Logastellus) possible/probable sockpuppets/meatpuppets.
greatworks.org.uk may be "possibly the most authoritative poetry website in the UK", but with regards to the British Library's archiving of the site, I am persuaded by User:Fram's argument on the deletion review: "on one of the many hundreds of websites about arts and humanities which are archived by the British Library, there is one reader-submitted review of the poetry of this author." Although, if you'd like to enlighten me as to who Thomas Harrison is, I'd be interested - I see on the deletion review that you referred to "a rather comprehensive academic article written by T Harrison on A Bulla", but his credentials are not discussed (and his name is too common for Google to be much help, all I could find was that the Bulla article was the only thing he has contributed to greatworks.co.uk).
Oh, p.s., I'm not American. Sorry for failing to live up to the stereotype you seem to have in mind for me. --Stormie (talk) 22:06, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Digging a little deeper, it seems that whilst, yes, greatworks.org.uk was selected by the British Library for archiving, it is one of approximately 6,000 websites selected as part of an experimental program to "investigate the issues of selection and the technical challenges involved". --Stormie (talk) 02:50, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
