Speedy deletion nomination of EDGEVANTAGE
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on EDGEVANTAGE 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 web content, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. かんぱい!

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to the page EDGEVANTAGE. Blank pages can confuse readers, and are overall not helpful to the Wikipedia project; furthermore, blanking a page is not the same as deleting it.
If the article you blanked is a duplicate of another article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalized, please revert it to the last legitimate revision. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please use the appropriate deletion process.

Speedy deletion nomination of Royal & Aristocratic Villages of Jaffna
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/48px-Copyright-problem.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 Royal & Aristocratic Villages of Jaffna requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: 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.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Royal & Aristocratic Villages of Jaffna, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, then you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this:
which appears inside of the speedy deletion notice, which will allow you to make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. TRANSPORTERMAN (TALK) 19:45, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. obi2canibetalk contr 14:57, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did to Portuguese conquest of the Jaffna kingdom, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. obi2canibetalk contr 14:59, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
Dear obi2canibe The Yalapana Vaipava Malai is a published book in the public domain - there is no need for you to delete the information i added Also what is the promotional material added????
- That is not good enough. You need to provide references so that the content you added can be verified in accordance with WP:VERIFY. You can't just say that the reference exists. The promotion you are carrying out is in the Tissanayagam family. This article is just gibberish. The sources provided don't refer to the "Tissanayagam family".--obi2canibetalk contr 16:58, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
The information and documentation on the family have been published. Let's take this up with the Wikipedia administrators. I don't take lightly to bullying!
- I'm sorry that you consider me asking you to follow Wikipedia's core content policies - WP:VERIFY, WP:NPOV and WP:NOR - to be bullying. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, it is not a place to promote yourself or your family. That is why we ask you provide reliable sources which can be verified. Simply saying the information has been published isn't good enough. You need to provide inline citations and prove notability.--obi2canibetalk contr 18:04, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Strike Eagle. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Tissanayagam family because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at Tissanayagam family. KJ Discuss? 13:48, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
