Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at User talk:Tutelary, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Lor^Chat 01:14, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Terence DuQuesne

The article Terence DuQuesne has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:PROF, WP:BIO. Only sources are primary sources.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of David Webb (anti-censorship campaigner)

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 David Webb (anti-censorship campaigner) 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 person or group of people, 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Click here to 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.

Please do not attack other editors. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 13:24, 3 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Tutelary (talk) 17:31, 3 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I gave valid reasons - plural. Here they are again:

As I pointed out, David Webb does pass this site's guidelines for inclusion. He was an actor of stage, film and TV, an author, and also ran an anti-censorship organisation for many years.

Here are some press cuttings related to him:

http://www.infotextmanuscripts.org/webb/webb_cuttings_index.html

Here is one of his publications: http://explore.bl.uk/primo_library/libweb/action/display.do?tabs=moreTab&ct=display&fn=search&doc=BLL01016170997&indx=1&recIds=BLL01016170997&recIdxs=0&elementId=0&renderMode=poppedOut&displayMode=full&frbrVersion=&dscnt=1&fromLogin=true&tab=local_tab&dstmp=1407086458170&vl(freeText0)=david%20webb%201931&vid=BLVU1&mode=Basic

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make personal attacks on other people, as you did at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Terence_DuQuesne. Comment on content, not on fellow editors. Theroadislong (talk) 21:12, 7 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I thought I'd made myself clear; I'm not interested in editing or contributing in any way, manner, shape or form to this site anymore.

Your draft article, User:VennerRoad/NCROPA

Hello VennerRoad. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "NCROPA".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|User:VennerRoad/NCROPA}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 17:21, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
