Revision as of 16:55, 28 January 2013

Welcome!

Hello, Rosiehannah, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Girls' Day Out Show, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! §FreeRangeFrog 19:02, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article Girls' Day Out Show has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No indication that the subject meets the notability guidelines for inclusion. No reliable references to establish third-party coverage.

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. §FreeRangeFrog 19:02, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


NEW MESSAGE

Hello! Thanks for the heads up. I am still learning but have sought help and advice from fellow wiki experts and have heavily revised the article. Please give me some feedback and let me know if this is okay now. Thank you very much. Rosiehannah (talk) 16:05, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Definition of minor edits

I notice that most of your edits are marked as minor, but I think you need to read Help:Minor edit as I do not believe that many of your edits satisfy that definition. - David Biddulph (talk) 12:56, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh great, thank you so much for helping. I was a little wary of what exactly is classed as a minor edit so this link was very helpful. Thanks again! Rosiehannah (talk) 13:05, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The references you added seem to support the notability of this event. I see multiple third-party references to it, so you should be OK. What you need now is to fix it up a bit. See WP:MOS and look at other similar articles to get an idea about the tone and structure you need to follow. I also recommend heading over to the Teahouse for help from other editors. However, bad layout is not grounds for deletion or anything like that, it's just the idea that we should strive to do do quality work for the encyclopedia. Cheers. §FreeRangeFrog 21:18, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely, I agree with that. I looked to Clothes Show Live for inspiration as it is a similar concept yet note that it does need tidying up so hopefully with a little more guidance and help my first ever contribution should be OK. Do you have any particular suggestions? Thanks again Rosiehannah (talk) 09:24, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Aligning a table

I'm trying to align the table on the Girls' Day Out Show page so it's on the right at the top -but to no avail. Anyone help? Rosiehannah (talk) 10:16, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You said above that you looked to Clothes Show Live for inspiration, so the easy option is to use Template:Infobox Convention as that article does. - David Biddulph (talk) 10:23, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ofcourse! I was simply creating a table with the available icon above, when I needed to be creating an infobox. Great. Thank you. Rosiehannah (talk) 10:26, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The numbers at the side of each contribution

Can anybody tell me what the numbers mean at the side of each contribution. For example: Moved spacing (+27) Removed table (-90) ? Rosiehannah (talk) 11:44, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

27 bytes (or characters) added; 90 removed. But it sometimes gets its calculations wrong. - David Biddulph (talk) 11:54, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
See Help:User contributions & Wikipedia:Added or removed characters. - David Biddulph (talk) 11:56, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yes! I thought it was some kind of point system of contributions.. Thanks again. Rosiehannah (talk) 11:59, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Amy Childs, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page David Peters (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) 11:19, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thanks for the heads up. I didn't realise it let to a disambiguation - I usually check it links! I have removed the link now. Thanks. Rosiehannah (talk) 11:06, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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 Jigsaw ESL, 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 encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. 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. Altered Walter (talk) 16:35, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I have contested your notification on Jigsaw ESL's talk page. If you could please tell me the reasons you think it is promotional, and point them out I will be more than happy to amend rather than you delete all my work and time?

Removing Speedy at Jigsaw ESL

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for taking the time to create a page here. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you created yourself. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the deletion tag you removed from Jigsaw ESL. Please do not continue to remove the deletion tag, instead, if you disagree with the deletion, you can follow these steps:

  1. Go to the page by clicking this link. Once there, select the button that says Click here to contest this speedy deletion.
  2. This will take you to the talk page, where you can make your case by explaining why the page does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do. For further help about the deletion, you could contact the user who first placed the tag or a highly active user who is willing to help with deletion. This message was left by a bot, so please do not contact the bot about the deletion. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 16:47, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help - I have already contested the notification. I do not know what a bot is and I don't think I know how to find out who made the allegation...? Rosiehannah (talk) 16:51, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
