If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion".

You don't seem to be having much luck
[edit]We all have trouble when we start. We find it hard to judge what is valid here and how best to work. May I suggest you read this essay which is intended for new users and has been found to be helpful? Fiddle Faddle 13:38, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
Your edits
[edit]Hi SenfBaum: I applaud your energy in writing new articles, and the English Wikipedia does need more articles about Sweden and its history. However, there are a couple of big problems with your editing here. One is that your English is not very good. For example, Anecdotes de Suède is not at all clear. I have also seen you replacing the start of articles with versions that are far less clear English - for example, at Angary and at Angantyr. You give the impression of translating from somewhere. Instead, you need to state the essential facts as simply as possible. For example, when was Les anecdotes de Suède first published; who wrote it or is believed to have written it; and what is it? Use short, complete sentences. That way, others can understand what you are saying and polish your English as necessary. Secondly, you are not providing references. What is the source of your information? For example, Aneboda fisheries school was deleted. Where did you get the information to write that article? If it had had a couple of references, it would probably not have been deleted; colleges are very rarely deleted if they can be shown to exist. I did not see that nomination, for which I apologise; I might have been able to save the article. But why did you not add any sources after it was nominated for deletion? (I am an administrator here, so I can see the deleted article.) Why did you not participate at the deletion discussion? The English Wikipedia has a higher requirement for sources than some other-language Wikipedias, and you should go back and add at least one source to all your articles. You also do not appear to have made any edits to user talk pages (such as this one, your own where people leave messages for you; do you know you can respond?) or article talk pages (in particular, when an article is nominated for speedy deletion, you can click a button on the template labelled "Contest this speedy deletion", which opens an edit on the article talk page for you to explain why it should not be speedy deleted). There are also various ways to ask for help: you can ask a question here and then copy this: {{Help me}}; you can go to a help page - I recommend the Teahouse, which is a place where friendly Wikipedians assist new editors and answer their questions about how the project works; you can click on the link in my signature or that of any of the other editors who have left messages here, to ask a question on one of our talk pages. None of these are required. But sources are required, and good English is important. So I'm offering you this advice in hopes it will help. (By the way I can read Swedish, but cannot write it. So if you ask me a question in Swedish, I will have to answer in English. Several editors here are more bilingual than me; two of them who I happen to know are Bishonen and Hafspajen.) Yngvadottir (talk) 17:20, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
- Oh, well, worked a little on Anecdotes de Suède. Hafspajen (talk) 23:33, 1 February 2014 (UTC)And hope for my 5th barnstar some day...
howdy
[edit]Sorry about the rough welcome. This is a hazing ritual that content contributors like yourself must undergo. Deletionists systematically eliminate all traces of your work. Thankfully nothing is actually lost... you can use WP:REFUND to get back all your work, or just ask Yngvadottir, they are a big meanie. They are an admin around here, and can magically retrieve "deleted" pages (which are actually just "hidden" from us non-admins ... see hazing ritual which I belive I've mentioned before).
The wikiCulture sucks right now, but I'm working on fixing up the place, so that the template-spammers and the officious-types don't have all the power. Which means I would *dearly* like to welcome you to wikipedia. :-) Because you seem like a content-contributor, and that is exactly what we need around here. Timtrent/FiddleFaddle, Yngvadottir/TheKvemperor, and Hafspajen/NotMandy can show you the ropes, and explain how to whip up on the deletionists, it's not hard if you follow a few simple procedures. I'm also happy to help in any way I can, you can reply to me here, or leave me a note at my own page (click 'talk' by my name, then click 'new section' at the top, type your message, and click 'save').
If you decide to re-create your articles, the best way to do it nowadays is called WP:AfC, which is off-limits for deletionists most of the time. Yngvadottir can probably recommend which article to start out with, as being most likely to succeed. Once you have a bit of practice under your belt, you'll be able to jam articles directly into mainspace without worry of deletion. Hope this helps, and thanks for improving wikipedia, it is appreciated. 74.192.84.101 (talk) 13:39, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
the river
[edit]https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Angara_River&diff=prev&oldid=593362860
Original:
The Angara River (Buryat Mongolian:Ангар, Angar (open or cleft); Russian: Ангара́, IPA: [ɐngɐˈra]) is a 1,779-kilometer-long (1,105 mi) river in Irkutsk Oblast and Krasnoyarsk Krai, south-east Siberia, Russia. It is the river that drains Lake Baikal, and is the headwater tributary of the Yenisei River.[1] Leaving Lake Baikal near the settlement of Listvyanka (at 51°52′01″N 104°49′05″E / 51.867°N 104.818°E), the Angara flows north past the Irkutsk Oblast's cities of Irkutsk, Angarsk, Bratsk, and Ust-Ilimsk. It then turns west, enters the Krasnoyarsk Krai, and falls into the Yenisei near Strelka (at 58°06′07″N 92°59′28″E / 58.102°N 92.991°E, 40 km south-east of Lesosibirsk). Below its junction with the Ilim River, the Angara has been known in the past as the Upper Tunguska ([Верхняя Тунгуска, Verkhnyaya Tunguska] Error: {{Langx}}: text has italic markup (help)).[2][3] Confusingly, some maps (e.g., 1773 atlas by Kitchen – see illustration) referred to this same section of the Angara as Nizhnyaya Tunguska, i.e. the Lower Tunguska – the name that is currently applied to another river.

Your changes:
The Angara river is a tributary of the Yenisei in Siberia, Russian Federation. The length is 2 820 km, and the catchment area is 1 056 000 km². The river source is Selenge, which is coming from Mongolia and flows into Lake Baikal. Angara is the drain to Lake Baital and flows first through Irkutsk, where several ponds are with a total vertical drop of 56 m. Further down at Bratsk and Ust-Ilimsk there are large dams and hydropower plants at 106 and 90 m vertical drop. The joint installed capacity totaling 8 380 MW. Bratsk reservoir area is 5 500 km². The regulations are believed to have led to water level variations in Lake Baital as damaged fish stocks.
Some deletionist noticed your changes, and got rid of them entirely, with an automated-deletion-wiki-tool. This was unfortunate, as some of what you did was an improvement. Of course, you also made some changes that I disagree with, such as deleting 3 sources. :-) You can post a message to Talk:Angara River explaining your approach, or you can also get advice on the rewrite here from Yngvadottir && FiddleFaddle. (Don't take Hafspajen's advice... they would just complain that there are no pictures of beautiful landscapes. ;-) HTH. 74.192.84.101 (talk) 13:39, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

DYK for Anecdotes de Suède
[edit] | On 14 February 2014, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Anecdotes de Suède, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Anecdotes de Suède, a polemic against the Swedish regime of the 1680s, appeared in French, German, and English before finally being published in Swedish in 1822? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Anecdotes de Suède. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
