Hi Oleglelchuk, I have replied at WP:CHUS. Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 08:30, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your contributed article, Kirk Cranston[edit]

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, Kirk Cranston. 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 – List_of_Santa_Barbara_cast_and_characters#Kirk_Cranston. 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 List_of_Santa_Barbara_cast_and_characters#Kirk_Cranston – 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 "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, or if you have already done so, 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. PamD 16:04, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

On second thoughts, instead of suggesting that the article be deleted, I've redirected Kirk Cranston to List_of_Santa_Barbara_cast_and_characters#Kirk_Cranston where the reader can find much more information about the character than in the stub you wrote. There's no point in offering a reader less information. Please take care not to create articles which are positively unhelpful for readers. Thanks. PamD 16:08, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If you're trying to help readers who're interested in that show, you could create more redirects pointing to the list - eg I see there's nothing for Aurora DeAngelis. If a name is already in use for a different article, you need to add a "Hatnote" there, or add the Santa Barbara character to a disambiguation page, as appropriate.
