Welcome to Wikipedia! We could really use your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as Eth Bombo) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. If you want to test things out, edit the sandbox instead. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

[edit] Eth Bombo

I surmise that "Eth Bombo" is supposed to be a cryptid? If you want the prod to be removed, consider consulting this page and this page and adding some sources. Good luck! Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 19:44, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Eth Bombo

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Eth Bombo, 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.

Michael, your article is getting longer, but adding more unsourced material won't save it. Please provide references from books, papers, magazines or websites about Eth Bombo or your work will be in vain - which I'm sure you don't want. Totnesmartin 22:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, I tried to help, but you did nothing. next time, giving credible sources for your work will stop them getting deleted. Totnesmartin 18:16, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion debate

Please sign your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eth Bombo, and please do not erase other people's comments when you add your own. I'm sorry your article got nominated for deletion, but if you work within the normal processes for debate there will be a greater chance that you can make your case in front of others.
