Welcome!

Hello, Edited by Sanjay, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Sanjay K Singh, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Speedy deletion nomination of Sanjay K Singh edit

 

A tag has been placed on Sanjay K Singh 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 about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Thank you.

The article Sanjay K Singh has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Please also note that articles must be on notable subjects and should cite to reliable sources which verify their content. Please only repost the article in a form that meets these standards. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. —C.Fred (talk) 14:17, 17 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thomas Erl edit

I went ahead and (temporarily) restored the article so you can plead your case at the AFD, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Thomas Erl. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 02:54, 25 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

May 2011 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Thomas Erl do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 15:12, 26 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

  • Thanks Muhandes for your remarks. I will follow the required guidelines. Edited by Sanjay (talk) 18:43, 26 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Done, now at User:Edited by Sanjay/Thomas Erl. You can work on it there. -- Cirt (talk) 09:32, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Sorry but there were efforts made to find independent reliable secondary source coverage, which were unsuccessful. I encourage you to work on the article in your userspace. Please read WP:Article development, WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:CITE. -- Cirt (talk) 09:39, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
I also encourage you to read WP:FAKEARTICLE and WP:COI. If you keep expanding the article in your user space without adding reliable independent sources, it will be deleted. Bongomatic 13:01, 6 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Re: Draft of Thomas_Erl edit

Can you format all the cites using WP:CIT, you should also read WP:CITE. -- Cirt (talk) 19:16, 6 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

I am still seeing a lot of bare links in the cites. Also, lack of secondary sources. -- Cirt (talk) 05:08, 10 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
Sorry but can you please fill in more of the fields from WP:CIT? Author, date, accessdate, publisher, work, etc??? -- Cirt (talk) 00:13, 11 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Done, moved back to mainspace and now with AFD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Thomas Erl (2nd nomination) for community reassessment. -- Cirt (talk) 15:12, 12 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

You are most welcome. -- Cirt (talk) 15:56, 12 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Thomas Erl Photo Color.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Thomas Erl Photo Color.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 22:29, 12 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
