Proposed deletion of Oskar Kogoj

The article Oskar Kogoj has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. j⚛e decker ^talk 17:53, 3 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

-The article is a translation of the Slovene page. I will take notice of the problem and do what I can to solve it. It may not have been of much help that the Slovene Wiki does not cite any issues other than it being a stub, but again, I'm just new to this, trying to help and learning by the minute. Badavinc (talk) 18:26, 3 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and declined the deletion request based on the referencing you added. After a quick look the first source looks good, but the others may not be independent of the subject, making them primary sources. While primary sources can be helpful, they must be used with care and in particular cannot be used to demonstrate notability. Thanks for your contributions.

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 02:25, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
