2010 FIFA World Cup qualification (CAF)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification (CAF), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. —C.Fred (talk) 13:52, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

I see this was deleted. It was indeed premature. It was probably also wrong given information FIFA has publishedJlsa 08:53, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

New names in list of men's national football teams

Please note that the official name of the nation is irrelevant if it is not the name that the team played under. So, for example, unless there is evidence that Zimbabwe played matches under all three of the former names of that country, there is no justification for their inclusion. It is a list of national football teams, not a list of nations. Kevin McE 16:07, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot.

Very short articles providing little or no context

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting 1990 FIBA World Championship for Women, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD.

Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 17:45, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

noinclude

Please, use <noinclude> tags when adding categories to templates, because otherwise every article that uses the template will be placed in the category. – Elisson • T • C • 13:41, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent contribution removed content from 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification (CAF). Please be more careful when editing articles and do not remove content from Wikipedia without a good reason, which should be specified in the edit summary. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Aleenf1 08:45, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Keoponesay Sintalavong

A tag has been placed on Keoponesay Sintalavong, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears 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: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Dark Falls ^talk 07:31, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to 2006 FIFA World Cup qualification (OFC), you will be blocked from editing. --Aleenf1 11:26, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself, as you did with 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification (CONCACAF). If you do not believe the article should be deleted, then please place {{hangon}} on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. BassoProfundo 22:22, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of List of socialist countries

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is List of socialist countries. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of socialist countries (3rd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:16, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
