==[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:Littlstar]]==
[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello Peter SamFan. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know, however, that you shouldn't tag pages as lacking context ([[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A1. No context|CSD A1]]) and content ([[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A3|CSD A3]]) moments after they are created{{#if:Littlstar|, as you did at [[:Littlstar]]}}. It is also suggested that pages that might meet [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7|CSD A7]] criteria not be tagged for deletion immediately after they are created. It's usually best to wait ''at least'' 10–15 minutes for more content to be added if the page is very short, and the articles should ''not'' be marked as [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/patrolled pages|patrolled]]. Tagging such pages in a very short space of time may [[Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers|drive away well-meaning contributors]], which is not good for Wikipedia. Attack pages ([[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G10|G10]]), blatant nonsense ([[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G1|G1]]), copyright violations ([[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G12|G12]]) and pure vandalism/blatant hoaxes ([[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G3|G3]]) should of course be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks.{{Z149}}<!-- Template:uw-hasty -->.

ArbCom 2022 Elections voter message

[edit]

Hello! Voting in the 2022 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 12 December 2022. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2022 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:31, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
