Welcome![edit]

Hello, Tumbler1624, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as McLemore Detachment, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Proposed deletion of List of Divisions of the Marine Corps League[edit]

The article List of Divisions of the Marine Corps League has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No indication of notability. Yes, the MCL has divisions, and?

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.

Proposed deletion of List of Detachments of the Marine Corps League[edit]

The article List of Detachments of the Marine Corps League has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No indication why we should have a list of over 1,000 non notable detachments (or why at the moment these 6 are included and the other 1000 not).

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.

Recent edits[edit]

Hello, I'm wondering if you represent or are affiliated with the MCL in some way. If you are, this might trigger certain Wikipedia policies that you would need to comply with. Regarding your edits, you would need independent reliable sources about the organization, and if you want to have articles about its subunits, sources about those subunits themselves, that indicate how the notability guidelines at WP:ORG have been met. 331dot (talk) 09:51, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edits[edit]

Hello. I joined Wikipedia about 9 years ago, but I haven't been involved in any major editing or creating pages until recently. I am still learning the process of editing and creating pages. I ask that no deletion process be applied to New York Detachment No. 1 and McLemore Detachmemt as both are historic detachments within the Marine Corps League and have been in continuous operation since its formation. I do appreciate the advice and editing of the work I've done and I am still learning the process. As I learn more about creating pages and editing, I will apply the knowledge, it will just take a little time as I have other obligations as well. Thank you. Tumbler1624 (talk) 16:53, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. If you want to reduce the chance the pages will be deleted, I would suggest that you consent to the articles being moved to draft space, where you can take your time to work on them until they are ready. As long as the are in the main encyclopedia, they are fair game for properly applied deletion processes.

With regards to the articles themselves, you will need independent reliable sources that discuss these subunits of the MCL themselves, otherwise they should be discussed in the MCL article. 331dot (talk) 17:04, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You may find reading Your First Article helpful. 331dot (talk) 17:08, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edits[edit]

Hello. I have no problem with both articles being moved to draft space. I'll also start reading the articles you suggested to learn how to create the pages and editing. Thank you. Tumbler1624 (talk) 00:29, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have moved the two pages to Draft:New York Detachment No. 1 and Draft:McLemore Detachment and will shortly add the appropriate template to allow you to submit them when you are ready to. As long as you are working on the drafts, they shouldn't be deleted. Drafts are only deleted after 6 months of inactivity. If you wish to reply further, simply edit this section instead of creating a new one with a new header. 331dot (talk) 01:20, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I greatly appreciate your help. Reading your suggested article, I made my first successful citation insert with the Marine Corps League page. Thanks again for your help.

Your submission at Articles for creation: New York Detachment No. 1 (March 6)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Ravenswing was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Almost exclusively sourced from Leatherneck Magazine, and needs independent, third-party sources. Newspaper articles, perhaps?

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:New York Detachment No. 1 and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:New York Detachment No. 1, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and save.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: New York Detachment No. 1 (October 23)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Legacypac was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Lots of unsourced info. An organization with 50 members is going to struggle to pass our notability criteria. You might want to expand the page on the parent group instead

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
