Two distinguished gentlemen, nice work. Mind you, I was rather hoping someone would have a free image of ZZ Top. ;) Alastair Haines (talk) 17:39, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding information about my 'Writing Style'

Hi Bodhi - just hoping I can help with some extra information as I'm a subject of an article, and realise I can't fairly input into it myself. (I tried, and it was reverted by yourself fearing a Conflict of Interest I hope I can persuade you is not the case). My reason for attempting to enhance the information is it finds its way into event biographies and so on, and it's not quite correct. Therefore, I've been advised to get in touch directly by the support team.

I'm really flattered Wikipedia sees fit to make a page for me, and would be happy to provide any details that could help deliver information your readers would find useful. As things stand, I have a slight issue with what's been written about my 'writing style'.

The section 'Writing Style' currently highlights the dropping of punctuation in one of my novels. I feel this gives a skewed view of my style, and that, actually, it's a technical device more than a style anyway.

I have used this device in some short stories and in "The Dig", but not throughout my work automatically. It is also worth noting that in one passage in "The Dig" - a conversation between the protagonist and his mother - I retained the use of speech marks to create a sense of a more conventional, staid dialogue. Therefore, I would be very grateful if the information under this heading gave a more accurate, broader view of my style in general rather than just the one specific device used only in some of my work.

If you're happy to note it, you might want to include the fact "The Dig" was also longlisted for the 2014 Kirkus Prize (U.S.) and the Warwick Prize 2014. I was also the Hay Festival Scritture Giovani 2008. My next book 'Cove' will be published by Granta this Autumn.

Do let me know if you feel able to adjust the entry to give a better sense of what I do, and please let me know if any information would be helpful for you to improve the page.

best,

Cynan Jones

Hey! I almost feel honored to help you in a achieving a more fair representation of yourself on Wikipedia. I see exactly what you mean about the whole thing being misrepresentative of the stories you have written. I look forward to reading "The Dig" and I found it because I suddenly thought to myself "Hey, these speech marks! They really necessary?" and was excited to find someone who wasn't afraid to move literature in new directions. Now I can see that the article hasn't exactly continued to be written into something longer, so that part on "writing style" really sticks out.... I can't wait to buy that book, now more than ever! I was also eager because I want to get back to my roots, which is half Welsh on my mom's side...

Back on topic, I hope to get to this soon. I'll look over the information you've given here and vet it for the article. I know how annoying it is to have something reverted, but I was just copying the edit history. Maybe you can understand why Wikipedia has that COI policy. You do need knowledgeable editors, though, to fix things! Bod (talk) 00:24, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bodhi, I totally understand the COI policy. I'm also pleased you're able to move things along. As I said, do let me know if you need any information from me that will help the page. Meanwhile, if you'd like me to send you a copy of "The Dig" to read, let me know where to mail it.

All the best, C. Jc1975 auth (talk) 10:43, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, ya! That is such an awesome offer and a noble, caring gesture of you. I thought about it overnight and decided it's okay to just post my address so that you can mail me a copy. Can you give me a little personal message? I'm sure you're betting once I read it I'll be hooked on your stuff... I promise to mail you a copy of my first published work too (if you want it at all). Here:
- - ***
  - ***

My mom just got out of the hospital so things have been a bit dreary around here, could use a good story to get lost in. Again, grateful for this gesture. And... if you could let me know here when you mail it so I know not to go out and look for a copy in bookstores... --Bod (talk) 22:46, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hope things are getting better for your Mom. I've noted your address so you can delete it if you want now, and I'll get a book in the post at the end of the week. I'll let you know when it's on its way, (though I'm not sure my stuff is the right stuff to be lost in when things are dreary!) best, C. 31.50.163.4 (talk) 10:33, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bod, just to let you know the book went in the mail earlier this week. Quite a big week! The Dutch translation just landed on the longlist of a European Lit Prize list in the Netherlands. Let me know when the book arrives. C. 81.152.71.234 (talk) 12:20, 17 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okey Dokey, mate. I'll let you know. And that's gotta feel good! Maybe it will speak to my sensibilities then... My father's side is Dutch. My mother's side is Welsh/English. Bod (talk) 01:35, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Jc1975 auth:, thank you for keeping your word. I got the book not so long ago (last couple of days). And, most importantly, thank you for keeping the written word alive. I must say that I LIKE the cover. And I started thinking about people's appreciation for authors, so getting some of those awards must mean a lot to you. Do you need a review, and if so, which site? I can remove some of our correspondence on this page if you find any part you don't want "public" but it still stays in the historic record. Bod (talk) 03:54, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bod, delighted the book arrived. Awards are awards. That sounds glib, but it has to be about the endeavour of writing, not the bangs and whistles that might (or might not) come with it. I set myself a rule years ago when I started my first (attempt at a) book: 'write as strongly as you can. Everything else is a side effect.' I've stuck to that. As for the correspondence here, and whether or not you feel you want to place a review somewhere, I'll leave both up to you. All the best, C. 86.191.17.245 (talk) 18:20, 1 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Potato names

Hi. I saw that you have moved lots of potato articles to new titles. I don't think there is any consensus to do this, as you can gather from this previous discussion. I'd like them to be standardised in some form, but it would have been sensible to discuss it before moving so many articles. The <name> potato titles look ridiculous to me and aren't consistent with any sources that I've ever read. e.g. as a random example: [1]. I don't want to get into a page moving war, so maybe we should start again at WT:PLANTS? SmartSE (talk) 20:01, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

See this discussion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Russet_Burbank_potato#Requested_move_11_October_2016

The reasoning came from this discussion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Russet_Burbank_potato#Requested_move_11_October_2016

Try for consensus at WT:PLANTS. I'd support parenthetical disambiguation (potato). --23:33, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. — Coffee // have a cup // beans // 04:50, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Bodhi Peace (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Okay, so I understand why I was blocked. I promise to not edit the article on Donald Trump directly for the 48 hours until I understand what the "consensus" means. I was not going against consensus - it was my understanding that only certain parts were protected by consensus and I was not affecting those parts. I was trying to improve the article by using less biased language, expanding acronyms, etc... nonetheless, I see the reason not make edits and so promise not to do so for 48 hours if unblocked. My primary reason for requesting the unblock is to write on the talk page. Bod (talk) 05:11, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

You have been unblocked as you have agreed to a personal 48-hour edit ban from Donald Trump. If you violate this self-imposed ban, any administrator may place another block on your account without warning. — Coffee // have a cup // beans // 05:25, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bodi, you are deliberately disruptive to that article and you know it. You can bullshit the admin all day long, but it's obvious you're going to keep this up, that's why you went right back there. Stop. SW3 5DL (talk) 05:41, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Trump

Per 1RR I'm asking for a self-revert.

Generally, if a person is currently involved in some sort of activity it is regarded as being (AAAA–present) even if the "AAAA" is the current year, for example on this revision of Kanye West from November 2016, there is a section called "2016–present: The Life of Pablo and Turbo Grafx 16" even though that at the time was the current year. Either have "Presidency (2017–present)" or just "Presidency" (as was used for Obama in 2009), as the current title implies he will hold the presidency only during 2017 (and while that very well could be true, any speculation of that sort violates WP:CRYSTALBALL).

Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Mi casa es tu casa. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Mi casa es tu casa – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Boomer Vial^{Holla! We gonna ball!} 06:20, 28 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for December 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Popular music in Sweden, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Finders Keepers (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:58, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your Undo of my "French Fries" edit

Hello, Your undo was in Good Faith but I did it because it was unsourced and brought nothing new to the article. It was repetitive and gave the article a very long prose. Thank you. AmericanAir88 (talk) 03:39, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

References

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 02:25, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically "obese" does not really equal "very fat". Or at least we need a very good ref to support that. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 02:27, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fine Line (Mabel song)

Hi, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia! I have just come across an article that you have recently created, Fine Line (Mabel song). I notice that this is currently unreferenced. Could you go back and add your references please? I am not a new page reviewer, but if I were I probably wouldn't OK the article in it's current form. You need to be able to establish notability with reliable sources, otherwise I suspect the article will be nominated for deletion. I would advise doing this as soon as possible. Thanks, Nzd (talk) 02:04, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your work on Cool Whip. You're right that Walmart's current prices make Cool Whip only about 50% more than cream.

Dead link in your citation for 'rabbits banned in Queensland'?

Your recent edit in Domestic rabbit#As pets (appended below) included a citation with a dead link.
Note: I did not add the comment that you see here at the end. Was it there when you added the citation?)

The keeping of pet rabbits is banned in the [[Australian state]] of [[Queensland]].<ref name="dpi">{{cite web |title=Rabbits |work=DPI.Qld.gov.au |publisher=Queensland Department of Primary Industries |url= http://www.dpi.qld.gov.au/4790_9530.htm |access-date=January 29, 2012}}</ref>

Can you provide an active citation? Thanks. Timbuk-2 (talk) 05:56, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I put the comment because I found the dead link and was too lazy to look up the proper (dead link) template. I wanted to know why they were banned there. Bod (talk) 06:00, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A better approach would have been to pose that question on the Talk page instead of knowingly appending unsubstantiated information to an article. Would you like to remove that sentence from the article or shall I? Timbuk-2 (talk) 06:05, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I only put the comment that there was a dead link. The claim as to the ban was already on the page. I would suggest commenting out the whole line until a cite can be found. Bod (talk) 06:08, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like there is validity to the ban after a quick search: http://www.greencrossvet.com.au/Pet_Care_Information/Article-216/Rabbit-Laws-In-QLD.aspx. Just need to find an active cite on a webpage. Bod (talk) 06:11, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies. I didn't realize the statement was already there. Sorry to have been brash. I'd be interested to see this fact put into context on the Domestic rabbit page. Would you be interested in doing that? I appreciate your help in getting accurate information out there. Timbuk-2 (talk) 06:20, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OK, just looked at it. I would suggest a summary for paragraph 2 of the lede... It would summarize the issues of having rabbits as pets, including small children, unwanted rabbits, invasive rabbits in Australia and the ban in Queensland. But I don't really have a read on whether you are a PRO-rabbit person or an ANTI-rabbit person. So, since you seem to have a strong opinion, where does it belong in context? Bod (talk) 06:29, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I made an attempt. See my edit at Domestic rabbit#As pets. Please feel free to improve it.

Nice working with you on that. I think we arrived at something accurate and useful--and just in time for Easter. Cheers. Timbuk-2 (talk) 08:11, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, just to be clear, the log entry contains an error on my part—it should read "spamming bad redirects. As of now a majority of your redirects have been deleted, with more in pending deletion discussions. As your recent initiative to create a large number of redirects has become a disruptive drain on the community's time, I've blocked you indefinitely. All I'm asking from you is to stop creating new redirects, and to go through Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Redirects if you have any desire to see new redirects created, from now on.

A tag has been placed on Bong Song requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either

disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

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 "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 deleted 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.

Speedy deletion declined: Yaupon

Hello Bodhi Peace. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Yaupon, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: I don't agree with the Yerba mate analogy - it's well-known for its use in the beverage, whereas this appears to be less well-known, at least in English.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use talk pages for inappropriate discussion, as you did at Talk:Ted Kaczynski, you may be blocked from editing. That edit was removed per WP:NOTAFORUM. It was not appropriate use of an article talkpage. Do not restore that edit again. Meters (talk) 01:43, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Meters: If you remove that comment, why not remove the comment above it, which also has nothing to say? Bod (talk) 02:17, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Did you read WP:NOTAFORUM? The preceding comment in that talk page thread was a valid comment on the organization (of lack thereof) of the article's lead. The editor has an opinion about something in the article that he or she feels should be improved upon. Whether you, or I, or anyone else agree with the comment is not germane. Whether anyone has replied to the thread is not germane. Don't remove it again.

On the other hand "Biased totally. He is a victim of MK Ultra CIA programmers, and also a luditte revolutionary. Intro dismisses him as some crackpot "terrorist", which is totally false. is using the talkpage as a forum. Meters (talk) 02:36, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And if you look at the IP's next edit [4] (to the article about Kaczynski's brother‎) it's clear the IP has a significant WP:POV issue on the subject of the Kaczynski brothers. Meters (talk) 02:43, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

True, that is obviously biased and disruptive. The only thing the comment about the opening paragraph does is criticize without any suggestion of it could be fixed. Bod (talk) 02:47, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Saying that it is poorly written, with material crammed in and unorganized is a direct comment on what needs to be addressed to improve the section. The user did not need to say "This should be fixed" or to point to specific lines and how they should be reworked for this to be a valid attempt "to discuss how to improve[the] article[s]". Your removal of that three month-old comment was not appropriate.

By the way, I was thanked for removing the IP's comments from that talk page under NOTAFORUM, so I'm not the only one who saw a problem with it. Meters (talk) 03:04, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The IP comment you removed was dumb, agreed. The 3-month-old comment however, also offers nothing.

"Horribly written" - entirely subjective and nearly impossible at this point because of the vagueness and slant of the word. Similarly "awful".
"crammed in" - Um, I guess that means someone wants a lot of fluff words in the 1st paragraph of an encyclopedic entry?
"Unorganized" - similarly nearly impossible given the first sentence is a description and the rest of the sentences are chronological highlights of his history.

Bod (talk) 03:13, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The IP comment by the way should be preserved here for anyone reading this discussion. "Biased totally. He is a victim of MK Ultra CIA programmers, and also a luditte revolutionary. Intro dismisses him as some crackpot "terrorist", which is totally false."

The person's comment claims the article is biased, which could be a valid complaint. "Totally" probably not. He became a Luddite by definition. And he himself claimed to be a revolutionary. The whole comment actually has more specific criticism than the 3-month-old comment.

Bod (talk) 03:21, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(ec)So,now you're OK with my having removed the IP's comment? Pity you didn't realize that before you restored it and started all this waste of time. But you still want to argue about a three month old comment that you removed in a bit of WP:POINTY editing? I'm not wasting any more time on this. I already said that it does not matter if we think the comment was a good one. It is arguably a valid attempt to improve the article. Your removal of that comment was inappropriate and your continued defense of it is a waste of both our time. I didn't template you the first time you removed it, but I will if you do so again. Meters (talk) 03:28, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this is becoming pointless. I just don't know why you felt it necessary to remove that comment, which if not packed with hyperbole actually boils down to presenting a different bias from the inherent bias of the article. And for the record, I'm still not that comfortable with the comment being stricken from the talk page, while a truly vapid and unconstructive criticism lies dormant for 3 months.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:Lepidium meyenii. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Your persistence in trying to promote fruits as 'superfoods' while using spam sources is creating unnecessary editing by other editors.

Conflict of interest in Wikipedia

Hi Bodhi Peace. Your editing is very, very promotional on superfoods and related topics.

Lots of people come to Wikipedia with some sort of conflict of interest and are not aware of how the editing community defines and manages conflict of interest. I'm giving you notice of our Conflict of Interest guideline and Terms of Use, and will have some comments and requests for you below.

Hello, Bodhi Peace. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.

Comments and requests

Wikipedia is a widely-used reference work and managing conflict of interest is essential for ensuring the integrity of Wikipedia and retaining the public's trust in it. Unmanaged conflicts of interest can also lead to people behaving in ways that violate our behavioral policies and cause disruption in the normal editing process. Managing conflict of interest well, also protects conflicted editors themselves - please see WP:Wikipedia is in the real world, and Conflict-of-interest editing on Wikipedia for some guidance and stories about people who have brought bad press upon themselves through unmanaged conflict of interest editing.

As in academia, COI is managed here in two steps - disclosure and a form of peer review. Please note that there is no bar to being part of the Wikipedia community if you want to be involved in articles where you have a conflict of interest; there are just some things we ask you to do (and if you are paid, some things you need to do).

Disclosure is the most important, and first, step. While I am not asking you to disclose your identity (anonymity is strictly protecting by our WP:OUTING policy) would you please disclose if you have some connection with companies in the "functional foods" or "superfoods" space, directly or through a third party (e.g. a PR agency or the like)? You can answer how ever you wish (giving personally identifying information or not), but if there is a connection, please disclose it, and if you are editing for pay or the expectation of being paid, you must disclose that. After you respond (and you can just reply below), if it is relevant I can walk you through how the "peer review" part happens and then, if you like, I can provide you with some more general orientation as to how this place works. Please reply here, just below, to keep the discussion in one place. Thanks! Jytdog (talk) 04:51, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I see this is a hot topic now and I'm going to bed. But the short of it is that I am not employed or receiving compensation from any company involved in the space... but as of yet it remains an interest and a hobby of trying exotic foods with purported health claims. I am also potentially seeking to create new products out of so-called beneficial ingredients and so to get to the bottom of any health claims and to understand why marketing is or is not false. I suppose some of my recent edits were a bit of a statement made against any existing conservative bias I see in the article. I feel that it can be explained how things are marketed without selling it on wikipedia. I may have to take my edits elsewhere on the web, but now with your latest revert I feel you lost some critically useful information: that superfoods often pick out omega 3, antioxidants, etc. The "economics" section is a mess and moreover, with the discussion of the marketing of bananas, I see that may be outside the narrow scope of a "superfood" article and more towards the marketing of "health foods". I come to the article to understand why the superfood label is used and what it means and the article is lacking examples. Bod (talk) 05:09, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I got distracted with other things. I think it is great that you are trying to understand the market for "superfoods" on a very practical level and want to share your learning in WP as you go. I do this sort of thing all the time, as well.

There is just a very fine between describing accepted knowledge about the market and how people have been addressing and growing the market, and replicating the hype within that market..... you are crossing over into the latter a bit much... Jytdog (talk) 18:08, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

August 2018

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Superfood. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Alexbrn (talk) 20:17, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Stub article

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice that Stub article, a page that you created, has been tagged for deletion. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

The page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. (See section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.
It is unambiguous vandalism or an obvious hoax. (See section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please do not introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia; doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.
It is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. (See section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Wikipedia has standards for the minimum necessary information to be included in short articles; you can see these at Wikipedia:Stub. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
It is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. (See section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Wikipedia has standards for the minimum necessary information to be included in short articles; you can see these at Wikipedia:Stub. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
It appears to be about something made up, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

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 "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 deleted 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.
