I am new to Wikipedia. I have used the Article Wizard to create a living person biography article about a current commissioner with the Alabama Public Service Commission. When aatempts are made to move the article from my user space to "live" space I recieve the following message: "Unable to proceed - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - You cannot move pages because your account is too new or is blocked from editing. If you would like a page to be moved and you are not blocked, you can list it at Wikipedia:Requested moves. Please do not just copy and paste the contents of the page to a new title, as that destroys the edit history of the page." I am able to edit both the sandbxox and other pages. I have also searched notice boards, new contributor boards, and help pages. None seem to address this query. What should I do? Chandi1019 (talk) 15:57, 30 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Try again: I think you will find you can do it now. The ability to move articles is restricted to WP:AUTOCONFIRMed users, whose accounts are four days old and have at least ten edits. Over the last hour or so you have passed the ten-edit mark so you should be OK now.
I have moved this down because new comments on talk pages are normally placed at the bottom - that is where people will look for them, and that shows the sequence of events. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 17:22, 30 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Terry L. Dunn

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.

A tag has been placed on Terry L. Dunn, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 deleted 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. DGG ( talk ) 02:07, 14 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
