Please sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically insert your "signature" (your username and a date stamp). The button, on the tool bar above Wikipedia's text editing window, also does this.
If you would like to play around with your new Wiki skills without changing the mainspace, the Sandbox is for you.

Whence-whither, good luck, and have fun. Schazjmd (talk) 19:17, 5 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Napa Collegiate Institute moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Napa Collegiate Institute, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 15:08, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Napa Collegiate Institute

Hello, Whence-whither. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Napa Collegiate Institute, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 16:01, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Napa Collegiate Institute

Hello, Whence-whither. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Napa Collegiate Institute".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 16:23, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
