User talk:Rockgod89

Hello! Jamie Wesley is not the appropriate place to post information about yourself, because it is in the part of Wikipedia where encyclopaedic articles are written. A "userpage" at User:Rockgod89, however, is available for personal information about yourself. When adding personal information please remember that Wikipedia is not MySpace. Your userpage is for anything that is compatible with the Wikipedia project. It is a mistake to think of it as a homepage: Wikipedia is not a blog, webspace provider, or social networking site. Please see Wikipedia:Introduction and Wikipedia:User page for more information. - Big Brother 1984 01:03, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of L-i-C

I've nominated L-i-C, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that L-i-C satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/L-i-C and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of L-i-C during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. --adavidw 01:31, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Please stop re-creating the same article

A tag has been placed on L-i-C, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems 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 Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing 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 its subject's notability under the 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. Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 01:41, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

==Knock it off==

Knock it off. Your behaviour is disruptive and I will block you from editing if you keep it up. The way to get your article listed is most certainly not by trying to ram it through and over-rule everyone else. Wikipedia doesn't work that way. Sarah 01:47, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Question from my talk page

See the deletion logs. When an article has been deleted and re-created that many times, it is a bad thing. Even if the article was mistakenly deleted the first time, trying to win by continually pushing a new copy ends up seeming rude. See Wikipedia:Deletion policy for more specifics on the rules and policies. For example, instead of re-creating the article, you could have taken your case to Wikipedia:Deletion review or you could have created the article as a user subpage and then asked an experienced editor to inspect it to see if it conformed to policy requirements before trying to recreate it in the main space.

Creating silly pages

Welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as Synonym for procreation) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. If you want to test things out, edit the sandbox instead. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

More questions from my talk page

It looks like your page was deleted under the Speedy deletion process each time. There are three separate procedures for deletion. "Speedy" as it is called is the level where there is not much of a protest process beyond using the {{hangon}} tag, which might not slow things down at all. The best way to keep it from being speedy deleted is by providing sources that meet Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:Notability. For a band, this would generally mean things such as magazine articles. You could add them to a "references" section using the APA style of citation or the MLA style of citation, though there are also more complicated citation styles available. Bands are often targeted for speedy deletion instead of a more involved, time-consuming process because of the huge number of non-notable band-related articles added each day. Watch the new page log for a while to see what I mean. Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 02:33, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
