Welcome!

Hello, Emmais07, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Goaling, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Goaling

edit
 

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Goaling, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

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), 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.

re: Goaling

edit

Hi ed. I saw your message at Goaling. Please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, so it's not appropriate to use it for other purposes. I don't quite understand what you mean by "filming" purposes - did you want to include the Wikipedia page in a short film? If you should be aware that the Wikipedia logo is copyrighted, and you may not re0use that with out permission. All other content on Wikipedia must be attributed correctly.

An alternative would be to set up your own web site (you could use Google Sites or something similar), and film using that. If you want it took look like a Wikipedia page, it should be possible to reproduce the look of a Wikipedia page (you could even use MediaWiki, and set up your own Wiki). Hope that helps. - Kingpin13 (talk) 16:22, 11 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
