User talk:Ralms2010

Welcome!

Hello, Ralms2010, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Lost Generation (poem), may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Speedy deletion nomination of Lost Generation (poem)[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Lost Generation (poem), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Cindamuse (talk) 21:04, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Lost Generation (poem)[edit]

The article Lost Generation (poem) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No establishment of notability from reliable sources. Several blog hits have been found, but all are of the form of "I like this poem."

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Republicanism in Spain[edit]

Hi. I'm reviewing your submission to AfC, about Republicanism in Spain. Although the article is well-written and discusses a notable subject, I have a few concerns. First, there are large segments with no references. All your citations cover public opinion surveys and current partisan movements. Some of those citations, like those from El Mundo don't link to the actual articles but are re-routed to the website's main page. If you had expanded those citations to include date of publication, author, and page number it would enable some readers to look up the citation elsewhere. From what I can see (I don't speak Spanish) you have no academic citations, at all.

My concern is that (because I'm not an expert in this subject) the article is really very slanted and is going to be identified as violating WP:NPOV as soon as I move it to mainspace. Again, this subject is worth writing about and I think you did an excellent job of writing it. Please address my concerns so I can act appropriately on your nomination.
