Well, never to late to give a formal reception, eh? ;-) Yes, I live in Riyadh currently. Life is good but dull here, and, as you can see from my userboxes, Internet still sucks here. I still have two more months in this side of the world, since I'm heading back to Canada this summer. Hopefully, I'll see you around, Afif. Don't hesitate to drop by whenever you need any help. All the best, Anas ^talk? 17:04, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Adil3.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Adil3.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 14:05, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Commercial use of Image:Mina official logo.JPG

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Mina official logo.JPG, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Mina official logo.JPG is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only" or "used with permission for use on Wikipedia only" which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Mina official logo.JPG, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 13:52, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Joyce Gemayel

Hello. I noted you left a number of speedy delete templates on Talk:Joyce Gemayel. I removed them for a number of reasons. Firstly, you should tag the article, not the talkpage with these templates. Secondly, you did it in triplicate. Finally, that particular template isn't appropriate. The article is not simply promoting her, it does describe the reason for her notability, therefore its not suitable for speedy deletion.

That said, her notability isn't entirely convincing to me either. I should explain I created the article, but did so to resolve another acrimonious dispute over her listing at List of Lebanese people. The rationale was by creating the article, it could then be decided by the community whether it should be kept or not on notability grounds. If it was deleted, it should be removed from the list also, if it is kept, it should remain on the list. So, since you are querying her notability, please feel free to list it at WP:AfD. If you don't know how to do this, or need help, let me know and I can do it for you. Rockpocket 21:05, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Ok. I've listed it for you at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joyce Gemayel. You should make your opinion known by expressing keep or delete followed by your reasoning. Make sure you read WP:BIO so that the reason for your opinion is within the criteria we use for notability. Rockpocket 21:36, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Tony Cornford

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Tony Cornford, by Senordingdong, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Tony Cornford 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 an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Tony Cornford, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Tony Cornford itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 18:33, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Inquiry

I deleted the article because the importance of its subject was not asserted. The only info you included in the article was that Tony Cornford is a senior lecturer in Information Systems at the London School of Economics. This is not enough. You can check this notability guideline for academics. Hope that helps. Regards, --Carioca 20:45, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Al-Mawarid Bank S.A.L.

I have nominated Al-Mawarid Bank S.A.L., an article you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Al-Mawarid Bank S.A.L.. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Antonio Cordella

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Antonio Cordella, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Raven1977 (talk) 22:46, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Leslie Willcocks

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Leslie Willcocks, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

CV of a not-untypical academic

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Afif Abdul Wahab! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to these articles, it would greatly help us with the current 3 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Leslie Willcocks - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
2. Anis Freiha - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
3. Selwa Roosevelt - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Speedy deletion nomination of Arab African International Bank

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 Arab African International Bank, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. 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 an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Epeefleche (talk) 19:06, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of West London Penguin Swimming and Water Polo Club

The article West London Penguin Swimming and Water Polo Club has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:ORG

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Al Baraka Bank Lebanon S.A.L.

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 Al Baraka Bank Lebanon S.A.L. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion nomination of Jeffrey Soffer

Hello CBF28,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Jeffrey Soffer 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. Crispulop (talk) 20:55, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
