Sorry for replying so late, its just that the exam period was on. It has now finished and I think I'll be contributing a lot in the next couple of weeks. But anyway to your message; yeah I think its really strange how many people think they can dupe teachers into believing what wikipedia contains as homework.

Immigration to Pakistan
The article was removed from DYK because it is currenly in queue 5. Joe Chill (talk) 20:33, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
- Nominated hook is from the same article but different section. --Saki talk 07:00, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, it is the article that is nominated for DYK, not the section, and any article can only be on DYK once. I hope this clears this up. Best regards, Simon Burchell (talk) 11:23, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
DYK for Immigration to Pakistan
|
On January 25, 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Immigration to Pakistan, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits your article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Hi. See my reply on the merge discussion page. Rana A.R (talk) 11:59, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
It can sometimes take up two months for articles at GAN to get reviewed, as there simply aren't enough reviewers. As this was nominated only a couple of days ago, I would expect you will have to wait for at least a week- note the fact it is low on the list. I wouldn't hold your breath- just get started on some other articles :) J Milburn (talk) 22:00, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for you work rescuing the passport / "visa free travel" articles

Declined CSD
I declined the CSD of the Meetup ... please find someone else to takeover all of the hard work that you have put into it. I would need to see consensus that it will not take place before deleting - especially at this late date. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 12:58, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
Autoreviewer request
Hi, just wanted to let you know that I have granted autoreviewer rights on your account, as you have created numerous valid articles. This will have little or no effect on your editing, and is intended mainly to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information see Wikipedia:Autoreviewer, and feel free to ask if you have any questions. Arbitrarily0 (talk) 14:41, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
- ...and sorry for dragging this thing out too long. Good luck! Arbitrarily0 (talk) 14:41, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Altered Speedy Deletion rationale: Steven rodriguez
Hello Saqib Qayyum, and thanks for your work patrolling new changes. I am just informing you that I have deleted a page you tagged (Steven rodriguez) under a criterion different from the one your provided, which was inappropriate or incorrect. CSD criteria are narrow and specific to protect the encyclopedia, and the process is more effective if the correct deletion rationale is supplied. Consider reviewing the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions or problems, please let me know. Thanks again! decltype (talk) 11:35, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletions
Hello. Thanks for your help in reviewing newly-created articles. I notice you've been tagging new articles for deletion, using the "delete" tag, but not giving any reason for why they're being deleted. In the case of Isabel Ashdown, the article clearly states that she's a prize-winning author. In cases like this, you should WP:PROD or WP:AFD the article rather than speedy it. You should also use an informative category tag as outlined in WP:CSD, rather than a simple "delete" tag. Finally, it's important to notify the creator of the article on their user talk page that you've tagged the article for deletion, either using the template suggested in the speedy deletion notice or using words of your own. Thanks, MuffledThud (talk) 11:39, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
- I was about to say the same thing. I also appreciate the tagging, but if you could use the correct tags that would be great. e.g. {{csd-a7}}. - Tbsdy (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 11:45, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion tagging
Thank you for your help tagging possible candidates for speedy deletion. Would you please use a proper speedy category instead of simple text as you have been doing? This would certainly help. Thank you. -- Alexf(talk) 16:13, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
Tagging of Md Jan Higher Secondary School
I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on Md Jan Higher Secondary School. I do not think that Md Jan Higher Secondary School fits any of the speedy deletion criteria because WP:CSD#A7 specifically excludes articles about schools from its scope. This was a compromise agreed to when the criterion was first approved. Therefore, no article about a school should be tagged for speedy deletion. In general, such articles should be taken to WP:AFD if you think they should be deleted. I request that you consider not re-tagging Md Jan Higher Secondary School for speedy deletion without discussing the matter on the appropriate talk page. Thank you for your efforts to keep Wikipedia free of articles on non-notable subjects. DES (talk) 16:41, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

The article 40 Pra (song) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Song fails to meet WP:NM.
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. PleaseStand (talk) 21:58, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
