[edit] Speedy deletion of Tom MacDonald (author)
A tag has been placed on Tom MacDonald (author) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. 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. скоморохъ 16:01, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tenby Davies
Dear Agathoclea
I see you’ve just reverted my changes Tenby Davies/Frederick Charles Davies and I wondered why? I hope I haven’t broken any rule? As the original creator of these pages, and as a relatively new user, I thought it would be alright if I swapped things around as I felt this worked better. Perhaps you could tell me why you don’t think I should have done this?
Regards Lepidus Magnus (talk) 13:20, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
- In short you can not move pages by copying content from one article name to another. You will need to "move" the article. If that is technically not possible like in this case please list at WP:RM and it will be done by an admin if most people agree. In this particular case I can't say I agree or disagree as I did not look too closely at the subject. Maybe later tonight I can take a closer look. Agathoclea (talk) 15:49, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
- I had to revert you again. Article now moved to your preferred title. Agathoclea (talk) 15:56, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
Dear Agathoclea
I’m really sorry about this, but it seems you placed your message only seconds after mine to you, and consequently I went ahead and carried out the swap before getting yours. I now see that you’ve changed things around for me, which I really appreciate. Apologies if I’ve upset the apple cart a little today, but I am grateful to you for your help in resolving things – it’s so easy to put a foot wrong here without realising! Thanks again.

[edit] Tom Macdonald
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Tom Macdonald, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Tom MacDonald (writer). It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.
This message was placed automatically, and 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 and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 13:47, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- [[Tom Macdonald (writer)|Tom Macdonald]] will show Tom Macdonald - is that what you mean? -- Agathoclea (talk) 13:46, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
