A tag has been placed on File:Pron.wav requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated. 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 "Click here to 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. Stefan2 (talk) 12:36, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
The page Sl1pg8r should not be speedy deleted because...It clearly states a YouTuber and how he is unique, and has clear references on different topics. It shouldn't be deleted, because it is also just like any of the other pages on YouTubers, with clear information on their life, occupation, and details. All sources are fully reliable and directly taken from the youtuber's pages. --Tyvic (talk) 17:24, 22 August 2016 (UTC) Per HolknektPlease take a look at the article Per Holknekt that I have created.

License tagging for File:LCHS 30204 Front.jpgThanks for uploading File:LCHS 30204 Front.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information. To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 04:05, 1 July 2015 (UTC) Please..take a look at the refs for the article Murder of Gerd Johansson.

We noticed though that when you edited Georgy Chernov, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page RU.

Remember: an indication of significance is just an indication that there's a good faith reason why someonem ight think a WP article possible--it is deliberately a much lower bar than actual notability. You need to review WP:Deletion policy, WP:CSD, and all the detailed parts of WP:N You are also working much too rapidly. Nobody can properly review new articles at the rate of one a minute, or keep it up accurately for several hours. I've been doing this for 8 years now, almost every day. and I never try to do more than 10 or so at a time, because I know that if i do more, I become less accurate. It is extremely important not to incorrectly mark for deletion the articles of new editors, because if the article is even marked for deletion, they usually never come back to WP. No matter how many articles are in the page list to be reviewed, it is not helpful to do an incorrect or inadequate review. Please do not review further new pages until you have some more experience. The best way to learn the criteria is to participate in discussions at WP:AFD -- after you have read the pages I listed above, and the instructions for AfD. And when you are ready, start very slowly.

Hi. Just wanted to let you know that after a file is moved to Commons, it enters the queue for F8 speedy deletion and there's no need to list it at FFD. All the best, Miniapolis 13:35, 27 July 2016 (UTC) Hey. I don't write info in Wikipedia, I just translate them. That's how it was written in Arabic. If you think it is promotional, then I suggest you also delete the Arabic page. However, I don't really thing it is advertising the game. Well, you're the boss. Edit: Also, I think this is all the info anyone can gather on the game. The game is still in development, and the company hasn't revealed any in-depth info about it, like the plot.

Thank you for your work on patrolling pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for Vasco da Gama (council speaker), a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, under criterion A3 because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. A short sentence identifying a person as "a new elected speaker of City Johannesburg" on a particular date is not the "no content whatsoever" that merits deletion under A3. Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers, criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion.

Kelvinsage1 (talk) 14:04, 25 August 2016 (UTC) Why so eager to delete my page within 1 minute of its creating?I am just getting started on this article. I'm afraid one minute was not sufficient time for me to finish the article. This will be a very long article that will take a very long time create, edit and cite. I have prepared the section titles already, to guide me and other contributors in our work, but I will likely only finish the introduction today. If you insist on each section having some content, I could contribute at least a sentence to each section today, but I would only be doing so to satisfy the arbitrary wishes of other editors, when the Wikipedia community would not be harmed in any way by there being a few days delay before the sections are filled in. There are volumes of scholarly references that pertain to the material that each of these section will discuss, so please just give me a week or so to prepare the article with the appropriate information. This is a very important topic that has not yet been discussed on Wikipedia. The survival of freedom and democracy may depend on the careful consideration and discussion of the relationship between tyranny and arms control, and on the public's education regarding this topic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by The wiki authority (talk • contribs) 18:30, 23 August 2016 (UTC) Jan Jacobsz.

I should point out that WP:G2 is not just a catch-all for "any other reason", it is specifically for pages that show evidence of only having been created for test purposes.

Multiple speediesHeya :) Saw on 7even Dīnosaurs where you'd used the db-multiple on the existing speedy I'd placed. It doesn't work correctly with text versions (like db-band) of the tag, you have to use the numerical versions. You generally also can't add content, like your "chat" comment, other than links on a copyvio notice. So the proper format is (brackets)db-multiple|a3|g1(brackets. See this revision https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=7even_D%C4%ABnosaurs&oldid=737824671 vs this revision https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=7even_D%C4%ABnosaurs&oldid=737825387 to see what I mean.
