Ways to improve Gideon Obhakhan

Hello, Offi gems,

Thank you for creating Gideon Obhakhan.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

State commissioners are not normally considered notable.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Mccapra}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Mccapra (talk) 21:44, 26 January 2022 (UTC) @Mccapra: Thanks for the feedback. However, I believe the subject passes the GNG with different reliable sources discussed on the subject. Going forward, i will be on the lookout in improving the article more as recommended. Offi gems (talk) 05:18, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Muhammad Garba Wala

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Muhammad Garba Wala requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Hello, Offi gems, and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit here too, under the username Jamiebuba, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Gideon Obhakhan, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form.
