Wikipedia:Caribbean_Wikipedians'_notice_board

Good to see you back. I just wanted to let you know that we have started a Wikipedia:Caribbean_Wikipedians'_notice_board. In addition, since you appear to be in Trinidad, if you have any images that you are willing to release under the GFDL, we'd love to have images in use. Guettarda 22:58, 10 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sixth form government

Is that the official name of the school? Or is it Sixth Form Government Secondary School? Is this Polytech? As it stands it's likely to get VfD'd (schools are always controvertial) bu if we can get it fleshed up a bit people ae likely to leave it alone (it's easier to protect an article that looks substantial than it is to save an article from VfD). Guettarda 17:41, 27 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

WP:VfD - votes for deletion. If people come across pages that they think don't belong in an encyclopaedia they put them up for deletion, and the community votes. Actually, it's a tiny fraction of the community who spend their time of VfD. Anyway, many people believe that schools are non-notable unless proven otherwise. So it's always a good idea to assert notability in a school. People have criteria somewhere, but since it isn't official policy I have no idea where they are. Nonetheless, the more information, the better. Guettarda 04:22, 28 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

West Indies Cricket

Hi Nigel. Over at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Cricket they are looking for any pictures related to West Indies cricket to use in the article - anything at all - crowd shots, players, anything - so I thought I might ask you if you had any you might be willing to release under a copyleft or free license. Thanks - Guettarda 11:59, 20 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Information and Communications Technology Society of Trinidad and Tobago

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Information and Communications Technology Society of Trinidad and Tobago, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. — mholland 12:33, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Cindy Devika Sharma

This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion nomination of The Hummingbird Tree

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on The Hummingbird Tree, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article that does not provide sufficient context to identify its subject. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hang on}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Disambiguation link notification for February 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited I Hate Valentine's Day, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Corbett (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, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ways to improve Trinidadian local elections, 2016

Hi, I'm TonyBallioni. Trinbago, thanks for creating Trinidadian local elections, 2016!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Hi, thanks for your contribution. Your article doesn't have sources needed for verification, and I've added a tag to it. The bullet point format can also be a bit confusing. I'd be happy to help with the syntax, but can't without sources.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:58, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
