  • It is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. (See section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Wikipedia has standards for the minimum necessary information to be included in short articles; you can see these at Wikipedia:Stub. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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".

Kuppiyawatta East Grama Niladhari Division moved to draftspace edit

An article you recently created, Kuppiyawatta East Grama Niladhari Division, 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). 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. ~ Amkgp 11:16, 5 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Your contributed article, %s Grama Niladhari Division 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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, %s Grama Niladhari Division. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Kuppiyawatta West Grama Niladhari Division. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Kuppiyawatta West Grama Niladhari Division. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Fram (talk) 13:26, 5 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

automated edits? edit

I wonder if you're running a bot. The pace at which you create articles is too fast to be done without some form of automation. The sources you provide are the same, and, as far as I can tell, never check out. You're always referring to http://www.statistics.gov.lk/PopHouSat/CPH2011/Pages/Activities/Reports/CPH_2012_5Per_Rpt.pdf which doesn't mention the name of the subject. https://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/ is a generic link that also fails to verify the content. Before continuing to edit, please consult Wikipedia:Bot_policy and even if you're not using such tools, refer to Wikipedia:Bot_policy#Bot-like_editing Vexations (talk) 19:11, 6 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Stub tags edit

Please remember that all stub tags go at the end of the article, not the top: see WP:ORDER - you got it wrong in Malapalla East Grama Niladhari Division and some others, and it makes life more difficult for other editors.

As you are creating so many articles, please learn to give them specific stub tags such as {{WesternLK-geo-stub}}, rather than leave it to other editors to find the right stub tag. Thanks. PamD 09:30, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

And please slow down and go more carefully: I've had to patch up the wrong Province name in Ninthavur 21 Grama Niladhari Division and I've fixed similar mistakes in other stubs while stub-sorting them. PamD 09:39, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Every category in Wikipedia must be part of a hierarchy of categories. Do not create a category such as Category:Polling Divisions of Sri Lanka without adding parent categories. Thanks. PamD 10:50, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Sandbox edit

Please remove User:Nsenaratna/sandbox from all categories, either by commenting out the categories or by adding ":". Thanks. PamD 11:02, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

In creation v. Stub edit

Please finish working on one article before creating more in mainspace. If you put something in mainspace and label it as {{stub}} it appears in Category:Stubs. Stub-sorters will see it and open it. You cannot expect them not to edit the article at that point. Please only leave the {{In creation}} tag on the one article you are actively working on. Thanks. PamD 11:08, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

A tag has been placed on Category:Grama Niladhari Divisions of Sri Jayawardanapura Kotte Divisional Secretariat requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2020_June_7#Category:Grama_Niladhari_Divisions_of_Sri_Jayawardanapura_Kotte_Divisional_Secretariat. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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.

If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

File source problem with File:Balangoda Polling Division Sri Lanka.svg edit

 

Thank you for uploading File:Balangoda Polling Division Sri Lanka.svg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.
