[edit] AfD nomination of Lissa Lauria
An editor has nominated Lissa Lauria, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lissa Lauria and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 21:00, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page V Sevani do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.
- Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
- The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: 'viewmorepics\.myspace\.com' (link(s): http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewPicture&friendID=230621493&albumId=0) . If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thorougly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creators copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
- Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! XLinkBot (talk) 02:45, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I posted a comment at the 3RR page on your 3RR report.
Feel free to post questions on my talk page if you need any help figuring out how to do anything here on Wikipedia. There's a lot to learn – I'm still learning! – but even the very newest user can contribute usefully without knowing all the procedures. Welcome. --Coppertwig (talk) 13:14, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Sources
Hi. In regards to V Sevani, please take a look at Wikipedia's policies on WP:BLP, WP:V, and WP:RS. All article content on Wikipedia must be attributed to a reliable source - we don't publish unsourced or poorly sourced rumors. You can use the ref tag (see Wikipedia:Footnotes for information on how this works) to add an inline citation to your text and tell where you got that information. The {{cite web}} template can be used in combination with ref tags to add a nice footnoted section. Please see John McCain or Barack Obama for examples of articles that are properly cited with inline ref tags. --B (talk) 14:15, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
