[edit] Speedy deletion of Daedric Princes

A tag has been placed on Daedric Princes 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.

Please see the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Daedric Princes regarding this. You may request a review of this at Wikipedia:Deletion review. Until the deletion is reviewed, recreated articles with this title will be deleted.SkierRMH (talk) 06:46, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sunshine

Welcome to Wikipedia! I am glad to see you are interested in discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Sunshine (2007 film) are for discussion related to improving the article, not general discussion about the topic. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you. —Erik (talkcontrib) - 22:18, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Usually, if discussion has been on the talk page for a while, most editors don't "clean up" belatedly. However, if the existing general discussion encourages further general discussion in the present, reverts and heads-up messages will take place. Besides, even if it was OK to answer these questions, those who asked the questions are likely to be long gone. —Erik (talkcontrib) - 15:29, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Warnings

Re your message: An editor or anonymous IP should receive a final warning (aka, fourth level warning) before you report them to WP:AIV. How they get to the fourth level varies. If appropriate, you can jump straight to {{uw-vandalism4im}}. Sometimes you go from level 1 to 3 and then 4. It's a judgment call depending upon how severe the vandalism is. After awhile, you will begin to get a feel for when editors are here to cause trouble and won't stop versus the ones where one warning will make them stop.

There are some exceptions of course. If the vandalism was so bad, you can report them immediately without warning. Generally, it's got to be real bad.

As for the group of editors doing the Saharia, I was probably a bit too lenient with them at first. I let Yashpi (talk · contribs) slide because Way2hot2becool (talk · contribs) vandalized the same article days ago and I give editors a little slack when they're just piling on to vandalize something that's been vandalized for awhile. Blacksweater123 (talk · contribs) first appeared with a simple test-like edit, but that was my first indication that this might be a group of kids playing around at the same time. Blacksweater123 eventually got blocked. With Shashdawg (talk · contribs), I went straight to uw-vandalism4im because it was obvious he was tag team editing and not here to make useful contributions. Saharia is an obscure article to target for vandalism, so I probably should have started at level 2 warnings. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:24, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

On a side note, I moved your question to a new section at the bottom of my talk page as I wanted to separate your question from a vandal complaining about the warnings I had issued them. I didn't think you wanted to be associated with that. =) If you have any more questions, feel free to ask me. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:30, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
