Ndidi Dike[edit]

This article that you started was tagged for speedy deletion as non-notable. I changed this to PROD deletion - it will still be deleted soon if no one supports the article. If you have sources that show notability of the subject please add them. Rmhermen (talk) 19:37, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bisi Silva[edit]

This article was strangely deleted, IMHO too rapidly and withou a research. I've seen it and recreated but by now i'm only trying to translate from the only wikiversion i know, the italian one. Could you better care and build with your informations the voice ? Thanx a lot --Gemnar (talk) 22:54, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Marilyn Douala Bell[edit]

The article Marilyn Douala Bell has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

I've removed the deletion request now that it is nicely referenced; what do you mean by "what template to use"? Ironholds (talk) 13:53, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
