Hi. Just so you know, Wikipedia is not really the place for definitions of words, especially not words specific to just one college. If you want to add to the section on Marist College's culture, it might be appropriate there, but it's not suitable for an article.

Best of luck. SnowFire 23:19, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Abacus Publications

A tag has been placed on Abacus Publications, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable (see the guidelines for notability here). If you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please write {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

Please read the criteria for speedy deletion (specifically, articles #7) and our general biography criteria. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Dgies 07:49, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Hey mate, an article of yours, Abacus Publications, was deleted for being about a non-notable company. Could I urge you to reconsider your current campaign of creating an article for every title the company has ever released? Please leave a message on my talk page if you need clarification.•Elomis• 03:07, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

To follow up on this, I've just deleted Fly the Airbus A380!, which you created. Have a look at WP:SOFTWARE for our guidelines regarding articles about software and games, and WP:CORP for guidelines on articles about companies. Opabinia regalis 05:31, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

Proposed deletion of List of major gods in Age of Mythology and The Titans

The article List of major gods in Age of Mythology and The Titans has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Game guide content, non-notable.

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 {{dated prod}} 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 {{dated prod}} 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. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 06:26, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
