Notice

The article Boulder Fire (2019) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not notable per WP:NEVENTS

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I saw that the film article was deleted: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Keka (film). The film has reviews from Rediff.com [1] IANS [2] 123telugu [3] [4]. Is the article worth restoring or can I just create it again? DareshMohan (talk) 23:44, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

@DareshMohan - Hello! You can't just create it again - it will likely be deleted. Please check out this page on how to proceed if your article was deleted. Cheers! Missvain (talk) 16:22, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

New article -- regulatory agenda

Dear MissVain --

You seem like a serious reviewer. For the first time in several years, I wrote a new article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulatory_agenda I really don't want to go through the review process with reviewers that don't know what they're talking about. (A biographical article necessarily talks about what the person did. That doesn't make it "a resume." A Wikipedia guideline that uses "should" doesn't mean "must." And the like. That kind of malarky has kept me out of the writing game for about two years.)

Could you give regulatory agenda a real review, and if there's anything that needs attention, let me know? And if not, do whatever has to be done to keep it out of the hands of less-helpful reviewers?

If you don't want to do it yourself, can you point me in a direction that will get me to a serious and helpful reviewer?

Thank you. DCLawwyer (talk) 21:40, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
