Proposed deletion of Hifn
I removed the proposed deletion tag you placed on Hifn, as per policy an article that has previously been discussed at Articles for deletion is permanently ineligible for proposed deletion. Compliance with policy is the only reason I did this, and I have not even assessed whether the article might or might not merit deletion. Therefore, please do not interpret this action as my endorsement for keeping this article. If you wish to pursue deletion, please open another AfD by following the steps at WP:AFDHOWTO. I strongly recommend you go over WP:BEFORE prior to doing so. —KuyaBriBriTalk 20:09, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of [[A Classic Education]]
Hello I wanted to why you are considering this selfpromotion. I inserted all the references and I've seen other pages such as the "Shaking Through" one that point to this band. I put all the references needed for each sentence as I discovered the band through Spin magazin. I also credited the photography when needed. I'm new on wiki so maybe there is some procedure I'm doing wrong?
Hope to hear back from you, thank you very much —Tosettialex
- Hi, I read your article it lacks on WP:BAND guidelines. If u still want to challenge Proposed deletio you can comment on article discussion page or on the AfD debate. You can also remove the tag but you should give reasons for removal of tags.Sehmeet singh (talk) 19:16, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion declined: Mentadent SR
Hello Sehmeet singh. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Mentadent SR, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Thank you. Salvio Let's talk about it! 13:58, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
Proposed merge
In this edit you proposed that Battle of Zimbabwe be merged to Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League, but you did not edit the talk page of either article to discuss why you feel such a merge is appropriate. Please state your reasoning either at Talk:Battle of Zimbabwe or at Talk:Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League. (I would suggest discussing at the Battle of Zimbabwe page, but either place is fine.)

August drive
Hey there Sehmeet singh, I'm glad you've joined us at Project Wikify. I noticed that you added an article and I've got a couple notes for you. First of all, the drive doesn't start for a couple more days! :) Second, I think this wuold be a great place to walk you through the wikifying of an article. You had a great start on Bomab, but I think they are a couple more things that could have been done. I'll go through everything point-by-point.
- The tags you added were almost entirely correct. There were some sources when you added the {{unreferenced}} tag, but you saw you're mistake and removed that. However, there another tag, {{nofootnotes}} that most certainly applies when the article has references at the bottom, but no citations. I added that. - Good start :)
- Next, you added some great links and removed some advertising. Again, great job.
- Now here's some things you missed. An article should almost never start with a section header, like this one did. I removed the section header.
- Next I took a link and put it in between
<ref></ref>
tags to make it a reference. - Then I added a reflist, to show the references.
- Lastly, since the article now has footnotes, I changed the tag from {{nofootnotes}} to {{morefootnotes}}.
I hope this helps - happy wikifying! Nolelover Talk·Contribs 16:38, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

You cannot review articles that you yourself nominate, and, as you are not a major contributor to the article, it is not appropriate that you nominate the article without consulting the regular editors anyway. Especially considering that this is such an important and complex topic, the cursory review you gave would not have been appropriate even if you had not nominated the article yourself. I advise that you withdraw the nomination at this time, and consult with the regular editors of the page as to whether they feel that the article is ready to be nominated. J Milburn (talk) 00:16, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
- Ok, I've just seen that you made this edit- you are not the nominator, you are the reviewer, so you needn't have changed that- it's that that caused the confusion. I have changed it back. I stand by what I said about it being a rather light review, but I appreciate that you have requested a second opinion, which is fair enough. J Milburn (talk) 00:23, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Also the fact that you breached copyright laws is a CRIMINAL act and you can be fined and go to jail.

Welcome to Wikipedia. I have noticed that some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to ramdasia, have conflicted with our neutral point of view and verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you to seek consensus for certain edits. Thank you. CiscoManager (talk) Cisco Manager —Preceding undated comment added 13:02, 2 September 2011 (UTC).

Merging
You have requested to merge 2011 parliamentary debate on anti-corruption legislation into Jan Lokpal bill, however this small article is related to 2011 Indian anti-corruption movement.

BLP Prod tag on Mali Madhavan Nair
Hi there! Just to let you know that I have removed the BLP PROD tag you placed on the Mali Madhavan Nair article as this is supposed to be used only for living people and the first line clearly says he died in 1996. It was also really easy to find a reliable source to support the text as several came up on a simple Google search. I'm wondering whether you have noticed the part of the BLP PROD guidelines which says "you are strongly encouraged to either source or remove any contentious material and look for reliable sources that support the remainder of the biography's content"? I know it can seem easier just to tag an article quickly and move on but that sometimes just creates work for other people, especially when the article in question is easy to source. If I may offer a bit of friendly advice, I would like to suggest that you pause for a moment before tagging an article for deletion to a) do a quick search to see whether a source comes up quickly (if so, add it) and b) to check that you have used the correct tag.--CharlieDelta (talk) 06:52, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

The article Adesh Institute of Medical Sciences & Research has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- no evidence of notability
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:07, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

Participation Of the 70 people who signed up for this drive, 40 copy-edited at least one article. Thanks to all who participated! Special acknowledgement goes out to Lfstevens, who did over 200 articles, most of them in the last third of the drive, and topped all three leaderboard categories. You're a superstar! Stfg and others have been pre-checking the articles for quality and conformance to Wikipedia guidelines; some have been nominated for deletion or had some preliminary clean-up done to help make the copy-edit process more fun and appealing. Thanks to all who helped get those nasty last few articles out of the target months. Progress report During this drive we were successful in eliminating our target months—October, November, and December 2010—from the queue, and have now eliminated all the 2010 articles from our list. We were able to complete 500 articles this month! End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here. When working on the backlog, please keep in mind that there are options other than copy-editing available; some articles may be candidates for deletion, or may not be suitable for copy-editing at this time for other reasons. The {{GOCEreviewed}} tag can be placed on any article you find to be totally uneditable, and you can nominate for deletion any that you discover to be copyright violations or completely unintelligible. If you need help deciding what to do, please contact any of the coordinators. Thank you for participating in the March 2012 drive! All contributions are appreciated.

AfD Simple_Energy
In reference to The AfD for Simple Energy, new citations and references have been added. The article is now compliant. Please advise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greenbeanstew (talk • contribs) 04:16, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
Please re-review The AfD for Simple Energy and the original article Simple_Energy. Having made a number of additional citations and filled in some key gaps, I am confident the article now meets the standards set forth in the guidelines. Thanks for pushing me to do a better job with it! Greenbeanstew (talk) 04:05, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
Please advise if you plan to revisit The AfD for Simple Energy or the original article Simple_Energy. It has been one week since your first review and changes have been made to bring into compliance with your note. After seven days, it is advised that the AfD be closed; however, I'd like to ensure that you are aligned with that decision before I remove it. Please advise.
