Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Cumulus (association) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages.

Regarding your message at Talk:Cumulus (association) - The article was tagged for deletion for not having enough context to identify the subject. "it did not have much in it anyway" only supports the argument that it should be deleted, it is not a reason against deleting it. Ian.thomson (talk) 20:40, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:All of New Jersey.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:All of New Jersey.jpeg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Misplaced Pages takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Misplaced Pages. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nick⁠—⁠/_Contribs 18:42, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Your contributed article, All of New Jersey

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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, All of New Jersey. First, thank you for your contribution; Misplaced Pages relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – New Jersey. 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 Misplaced Pages. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at New Jersey – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages'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, 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. Misplaced Pages looks forward to your future contributions. Nick⁠—⁠/_Contribs 18:43, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Automotive Restoration Experts

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Automotive Restoration Experts, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1fybSs8cNI.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Misplaced Pages:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Speedy deletion nomination of Automotive Restoration Experts

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 Automotive Restoration Experts, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Misplaced Pages:FAQ/Organizations 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 "Click here to 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 removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages'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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Speedy deletion nomination of Stevecash83

Hello M briglia05,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Stevecash83 for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Trivialist (talk) 22:49, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Recent edit to .exe

Hello, and thank you for your recent contribution. While the content of your edit may be true, I have removed it because its depth or nature of detail are not consistent with our objectives as an encyclopedia. I recognize that your edit was made in good faith and hope you will familiarize yourself with what Misplaced Pages is not so we may collaborate in the future. Thank you!

Disambiguation link notification for October 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited .com, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Commercial (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article 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) 09:38, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

December 2015

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to 9 (number), but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. - DVdm (talk) 09:44, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Draft:How to create a draft concern

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:How to create a draft, a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:49, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:How to create a draft

Hello, M briglia05. It has been over six months since you last edited your Articles for Creation draft article submission, "How to create a draft".

In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Misplaced Pages, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 01:39, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

English letter names

Hi. Would you kindly relent on changing the spelled-out names of English letters? I've been reverting you but you haven't seemed to notice. I've done that on the basis of English alphabet#Letter names (which is sourced from the OED) and WP:RESPELL (which details that, for instance, you should use "ee" to indicate a /i/ sound when using the respelling key and not "e", which indicates the sound in "bet" instead). LjL (talk) 16:26, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

Please stop making test edits to Misplaced Pages. It is considered vandalism, which, under Misplaced Pages policy, can lead to being blocked from editing. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. OhNoitsJamie 16:51, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

Recent edit to Gnat

Hello, and thank you for your recent contribution. I appreciate the effort you made for our project, but unfortunately I had to undo your edit because I believe the article was better before you made that change. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. Thank you! DemocraticLuntz (talk) 19:27, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

February 2016

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to O. This contravenes Misplaced Pages's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. This is a reiteration of what you previously did that you were warned about. You are again doing it on several articles. You cannot just change letter names into your favorite spelling just because you like and/or it resembles existing words, even though the reliable sources cited give a different spelling. You have been reverted by me and other editors multiple times on multiple letter articles; you must stop. LjL (talk) 16:04, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

Playing by the rules

Hi.

You seem to have some problems with our rules. Maybe you don't know what they are, but we do have rules, and if you want to keep contributing, you must respect them. Perhaps you could have a look at this page: Welcome to Misplaced Pages. You will find a section there under the heading Our "Rules". For starters, there is a link to the page Five pillars, which gives a brief overview of our core principles. But it wouldn't hurt to follow the other links as well and study what you find there.

Anyone can edit Misplaced Pages and contribute to this project. You don't have to be an expert or have a Ph.D. That is a rare thing in this world, but I believe it is very valuable. It is what made Misplaced Pages the greatest source of information on this planet, and completely free at that. But that is only possible because we, the editors, pay attention to the rules that make this collaboration possible.  --Lambiam 21:57, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
