Speedy deletion nomination of Barry's Ball

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 Barry's Ball requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and 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.

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 removed 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.

@cabyi how does one share a new idea? we were working on the wiki page collectively as a club and it gets deleted? would we have to make a website our self's with its explanation and then we could make a wiki sourcing to that website? seems a little odd. first time making an page on wiki perhaps i misunderstood its purpose.

Sockpuppet investigation

edit
 

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/RugbyNut2040, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

Request reason:

Your reason here so Wikipedia is not a place to share knowledge? at our rugby club we have had canclled trainig because of the weather so we developed a training game to play in the ice and snow we made an wiki page to share the training activity. the members of the team were all pitching in the write the rules etc. is this not allowed? is this not the point of wiki? or does everything have to be linked from some other site in order to be (sourced)

Decline reason:

This does not address the reason for your block, which is that you have abusively used multiple accounts. But in general, no. An article such as the one you created is inappropriate here. See WP:NOT. Yamla (talk) 14:14, 19 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
