A tag has been placed on Association of National Accountants of Nigeria (ANAN) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. 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, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.

Recent changes
[edit]I saw the recent changes you made to Association of National Accountants of Nigeria and to Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria. I am sure that you are trying to add relevant information, but you really should first read the articles listed at the top of this page before making any more changes, particularly How to edit a page. You should not put your signature on each edit you make, and should not put url's into the body of the article. The effect is completely unreadable, as you must see. I will clean up again, but please read how to edit before making any more changes. Thanks, Aymatth2 (talk) 12:53, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- I see you made additions to International Association for Accounting Education & Research, once again placing urls and your user signature in the visible text. Since the additions provided no new information, I simply removed them. I feel that you genuinely want to contribute to the encyclopedia, but I urge you, please, to read the editing guidelines - or just to copy the style of the rest of the text. Try editing in a sandbox first, to understand how to create text that looks "normal". You will find it is easy if you try.:~) Aymatth2 (talk) 20:56, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Hi, thank you for contributing Nigerian College of Accountancy and Certified National Accountant. We have revised it to be better formatted. You are gaining good experience in how to write new pages. With a bit more practise you'll be fine. Aymatth2 and I are happy to help you.
Who is the Director-General of Nigerian College of Accountancy?
I read at [1] that ANAN recently donated a research center was to Nasarawa State University. Do you know more about that?

[edit] Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you have been adding your signature to some of your edits to articles. This is a common mistake to make and has probably already been corrected. There is no need to sign your edits to article content, as the article's edit history serves the function of attributing contributions, so you only need to use your signature to make discussions more readable, such as on article talk pages or project pages such as the Village Pump. If you would like further information about distinguishing types of pages, please see What is an article?. Again, thank you for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! Thank you.

Hi Joluata, Again, please stop signing your contributions to Wikipedia using ~~~~, as with this edit. You have being doing this for three years, and have been asked repeatedly to stop doing it. Please stop doing it. It gives work to other editors who have to clean up the mess, and until that is done it makes Wikipedia look bad. And please make sure that when you cite another web site, you format the citation correctly, for the same reasons. I know you are trying to add useful information, but it really is easier not to sign your contribution than to sign it - and it is not difficult to format citations properly. Remember that your contribution history and the edit history of the article bot clearly show the contributions you have made. Can you imagine what an article with many editors, like Goodluck Jonathan, would look like if each editor stuck in their signature where they made a change? Nobody would be able to see the information behind the blinding storm of signatures. Your signatures make you look vain, arrogant, destructive and very weak. Please stop.

Speedy deletion nomination of Johnson oluata
[edit]Hello Joluata,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Johnson oluata for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. OccultZone (Talk) 13:40, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Sakirudeen Tunji Labode
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
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 Sakirudeen Tunji Labode 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, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

WikiProject Wikify: Current Backlog Reduction Plan
[edit]Hey, I noticed you marked yourself as a member of WikiProject Wikify and you are currently listed as active. I was wondering if you would be able to assist with our current backlog reduction plan. While traditional drives are more structured month-long sprints by WikiProject Wikify members, there is currently lacking activity within the project and in order to significantly reduce the incredible backlog, members are encouraged to review all articles marked with the Underlinked Template Message - {{underlinked}} - a list of which can be found here - to analyze the worthiness of the template message on the given article. Articles that have nothing to link or are have had wikilinks sufficiently added should have the template removed to clear the backlog and make it easier for editors to find articles in genuine need of wikification. This can be done by any editor; however, all editors should consider joining if they haven't done so already. Thank you!
