[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello Mkbw50. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know, however, that you shouldn't tag pages as lacking context ([[WP:CSD#A1|CSD A1]]), or content ([[WP:CSD#A3|CSD A3]]), moments after they are created{{#if:Liz Craft|, as you did at [[:Liz Craft]]}}. It's best to wait ''at least'' 10–15 minutes for more content to be added if the page is very short, and the articles should ''not'' be marked as [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/patrolled pages|patrolled]]. Tagging such pages in a very short space of time may [[WP:BITE|drive away well-meaning contributors]], which is not good for Wikipedia. Attack pages ([[WP:CSD#G10|G10]]), blatant nonsense ([[WP:CSD#G1|G1]]), copyright violations ([[WP:CSD#G12|G12]]) and pure vandalism/blatant hoaxes ([[WP:CSD#G3|G3]]) should of course be tagged and deleted immediately.

Hi, I have recently expanded and rewritten the Polandball article at Draft:Polandball. I have also requested undeletion of the original article (that should never have been deleted in the first place) at Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2014_August_6. I am leaving you this message as you have the Polandball userbox on your talk page. 185.49.15.25 (talk) 07:18, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
In reply to your post, I am not and have never been a student or staff member at this school. I received guidance from a member of staff on content, but hoped to maintain a neutral tone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rouseaubade (talk • contribs) 21:04, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
Okay thanks for the note. Might want to improve post to make it sound less like an ad. Also remember to sign with four tidles. This is Mkbw50 signing out! 21:11, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

I am working on this article as part of an Edit-a-thon, and I have just added references. I am working on this for the next hour or so. Katharinejoann (talk) 21:13, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

Hello Mkbw50. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know, however, that you shouldn't tag pages as lacking context (CSD A1), or content (CSD A3), moments after they are created, as you did at Liz Craft. It's best to wait at least 10–15 minutes for more content to be added if the page is very short, and the articles should not be marked as patrolled. Tagging such pages in a very short space of time may drive away well-meaning contributors, which is not good for Wikipedia. Attack pages (G10), blatant nonsense (G1), copyright violations (G12) and pure vandalism/blatant hoaxes (G3) should of course be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks.Template:Z149 ToonLucas22 (talk) 21:47, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
