Malsachanus

Hey there. I reverted your edit to Malsachanus as Wikipedia is not meant to just be a collection of links. In particular the link to encyclo.co.uk just copies what the article already says! Thanks, OXYLYPSE (talk) 15:05, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your contributions to Lisa Irene Hau. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit for review" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. BoyTheKingCanDance (talk) 12:21, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Epaphroditus of Chaeronea

Hello Vanmorf,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Epaphroditus of Chaeronea for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!
