Speedy deletion nomination of Sussex Slipcote edit
A tag has been placed on Sussex Slipcote requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may 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. — Train2104 (talk • contribs • count) 19:11, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
- Hi MartinW17, Don't worry, the topic is notable enough for a Wikipedia article, and provided enough context. Some references have been added, so you can see how to add references to an article and make it delete-resistant or delete-proof. Short new articles are often nominated for deletion, even if they are Wikipedia worthy, if they don't have any references. First Light (talk) 19:42, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
