I have nominated List of unfortunately-named Brands, an article you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of unfortunately-named Brands. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Spitz (disambiguation) do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings.

Unreferenced BLPs
[edit] Hello Infilms! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 728 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

The article International Transactional Analysis Association has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

DYK for Melissa Clark-Reynolds
[edit]On 7 September 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Melissa Clark-Reynolds, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Melissa Clark-Reynolds, who was awarded the Insignia of an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit, developed the now-defunct virtual world MiniMonos? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Melissa Clark-Reynolds. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Melissa Clark-Reynolds), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page.

John Patrick Hawker moved to draftspace
[edit]Thanks for your contributions to John Patrick Hawker. 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 your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. ❯❯❯ Chunky aka Al Kashmiri (✍️) 02:39, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you - I agree that notability is critical. I had assumed that being honoured as a member of the Order of the British Empire would establish this (doesn’t get much better than a medal from a Sovereign!) and the fact of that award is confirmed in the linked article listing awardees honoured in 2006. So unpacking your helpful comment: are you suggesting that I should include citations to justify the significance of a national medal (I am not sure that is within the scope of this article) or is your comment that the article needs more citations in general? I appreciate your support to strengthen this draft. Hugh Mason (talk) 03:04, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
