Proposed deletion of Allen Aldridge (defensive end) edit

 

The article Allen Aldridge (defensive end) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Flat Out let's discuss it 04:52, 27 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

New Articles edit

Hi. I'm Barkeep49 and I do new page patrol. I have seen that you've been making stubs around former professional football players. As you do this a couple of requests. First could you mark them with the appropriate stub tag? Personally I use stub search but there are others. Second for those players still alive could you add the biography wikiproject with the living=yes parameter? This way they are appropriate noted for compliance with WP:BLP. You can see how I did that here. If you have any questions feel free to ping me or leave a message on my talk page. Otherwise happy editing and Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 06:08, 28 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Spence Fischer moved to draftspace edit

An article you recently created, Spence Fischer, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). It is also not clear that he meets WP:NGRIDIRON or any other notability standard. 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. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 04:26, 29 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Spence Fischer edit

 

Hello, NFLfan101. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Spence Fischer".

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 nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. 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. CptViraj (📧) 12:24, 29 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
