Sketches of Spain

Aloha. Please see my comments on Talk:Kind of Blue. --Viriditas | Talk 09:50, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Not a problem. The John Coltrane article could use some help if you are up to it. --Viriditas | Talk 06:51, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Nice edits. I like what you have done, but other editors may attempt to remove content if it isn't sourced. I'm sure it's not a problem in this case, but at some point it would be nice to cite sources. If you don't feel like citing sources in the main article, you can always leave a comment on the talk page about the source, and another editor will add it in. Like I said, the page needs a lot of work, and hopefully I can contribute when I have some time. --Viriditas | Talk 22:25, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It shouldn't be a problem as this is probably not original research. In this instance, the lectures are most likely based on several known, corroborating sources. All you need to do is track them down. I'm sure you already have a list, or can easily obtain one. There's no hurry on this, but it's generally good form and should be done for purposes of verifiability. --Viriditas | Talk 23:27, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Update: I have recently found a number of authoritative references. In turn, I will be going through the article weeding out unsupported statements, so don't worry too much about the sources in this case, as I will be adding them to the page. Hopefully, you've added John Coltrane to your watchlist. --Viriditas | Talk 09:34, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Futureproof/ed

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Futureproof/ed, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Futureproof/ed. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Your draft article, Draft:Indigenous habitation of Minas Gerais

Hello, The silentist. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Indigenous habitation of Minas Gerais".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! UnitedStatesian (talk) 21:31, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
