Speedy deletion nomination of Brandon Banks

A tag has been placed on Brandon Banks 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 important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:33, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:K-stateFBhelmet.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:K-stateFBhelmet.gif. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Courcelles 05:34, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. In Cotton Bowl Classic, you recently added a link to the disambiguation page Gus Johnson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. For more information, see the FAQ or drop a line at the DPL WikiProject.

Annual football conference season navboxes nominated for deletion at TFD

I have nominated all of the annual football conference season navboxes for deletion as I don't believe they are useful navigational tools. You can find the discussion here. –Grondemar 03:02, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Acronyms, initialisms and other abbreviations

Greetings, Topgun. I have reverted a small part of your recent edit to the Lon Kruger article. Specifically, I have restored the full expression "National Basketball Association (NBA)" to the lead. Per WP:MOS#Abbreviations, the first use of an initialism (e.g. NBA) should always be defined in a parenthetical following the full expression to be abbreviated (e.g. National Basketball Association). This should be done in the lead of all NBA, NFL and MLB player bios. After the first instance, the abbreviated form may be used freely in the article. Thanks.

Topgun530, what's the story with the edits you made to 2012 Kansas State Wildcats football team this fall? In many of these, such as this one you appear to have copied and pasted copyrighted material from other sites. Jweiss11 (talk) 06:01, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

ESU Athletics article

Hello. Since you created the article, I was just wondering what you thought about a requested move on the ESU Hornets page? I moved it without a consensus, and it's been reverted back (I know I did it without it being discussed), but I really think that the "Lady Hornets" should be used in the title. Thanks, Corkythehornetfan^Question? 02:11, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Del Miller

The article Del Miller has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

BLP lacking sources since 2012

While all constructive 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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. 50.197.143.157 (talk) 15:00, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
