Speedy deletion nomination of Battle of Ujala

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 Battle of Ujala requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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. Gavin.perch (talk) 00:20, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alexei (Trader)

Is there a reason why you added the "Trader" disambiguator to the article's title? Wouldn't "bishop" be more appropriate? CycloneYoris ^talk! 08:42, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

"Trader" was his layman name, and the article's just following standard naming conventions i.e. http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/List_of_Eastern_Orthodox_bishops_in_the_United_States_and_Canada Alexthegod5 (talk) 12:00, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your interest in improving Wikipedia. However please read our policy WP:NOR and do not write into Wikipedia more than written in the cited sources. --Altenmann >talk 20:52, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@AltenmannHi Altenmann - I'm new to editing wikipedia so I'm here for critiques. I was taking some of that information based off the Russian wikipedia article for that page, however the sources they use are all books that I do not have access to. Just let me know what to best do in the future! Alexthegod5 (talk) 21:35, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please keep in mind that you cannot simply copy info from Wikipedias in other languages. Many of them have less strict requirements about providing references. In my experience only German Wikipedia is trustworthy enough overall. It is your responsibility to verify information yourself, and if the sources are not available to you, then better post a message in article talk page and do not add the info to the article. In recent years English Wikipedia has become too powerful in terms of information, and if one is not careful enough, then misinformation is quickly spread and it may even lead to an ugly phenomenon of "citogenesis". --Altenmann >talk 21:43, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
