Welcome

edit

Hello, Puppeteerman901, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been reverted for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of deletion, you might like to draft your article before submission, then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. To start creating a draft article, just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit that page as you would any other. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. It is also worth noting that Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which specifically link them to one company or corporation. If your username does have such a name, it would be advisable for you to request a change of username.

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! You can also just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!   ArcAngel   (talk) ) 07:50, 22 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Alex Nahon

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.

A tag has been placed on Alex Nahon 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 a person or group of people, 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. — ZjarriRrethues — talk 07:56, 22 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy Deletion re-affirmed

edit

Puppeteerman901, I'm sorry but after due diligence in searching, I was unable to come up with any reliable sources to establish the notability of this person, therefore I have placed the speedy deletion tag back on the article.   ArcAngel   (talk) ) 09:40, 22 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Alexander Nahon

edit
 

The article Alexander Nahon has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The page Alex Nahon is proposed to be deleted hence the same would apply to the redirect. Futher more no refernces or external links on Alex Nahon confirm that Alex Nahon and Alexander Nahon are the same people.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Ikh007 (talk) 09:59, 22 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Using offline sources?

edit

There are many sources that are not online, can I cite sources in print or other forms using MLA? Puppeteerman901 (talk) 5:51 am, Today (UTC−4)

Yes, certainly, see Wikipedia:Citing sources for how. JohnCD (talk) 10:07, 22 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Awards

edit

In regard to this edit and succeeding ones to Alex Nahon, I removed the awards for Aida because he did not personally win those awards. As indicated in the cited source [1], one of the awards went to the whole production and the other went to an actress. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:27, 30 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
