Citations

I note that you removed two nicknames from the Evanston, Illinois article because the links cited had gone dead. When you removed the text and references, you said in your comment "Both links dead. Need current citations." To the contrary, see Wikipedia:Link rot which notes that print sources or archived web sources may be adequate to verify statements even if they are offline. The real question is not whether there is now a convenience link functioning, but whether there was ever a reliable source cited which was verifiable. . One of the cites was to a CB website which seemed to have user-generated content, likely not RS. The other was to a local high school newsletter, which might be a better source for info about the high school than about the town's nicknames or history.These do not seem like the height of reliable sources in any event. But one of the nicknames, "Heavenston" was and is referenced to a local history page maintained by the Evanston Public Library, which says "The presence of two Methodist-supported institutions lent a religious tone to life in Evanston, and earned it the nickname "Heavenston.", and there was a citation to it in the article, in the "Nicknames" section,so I restored it to the infobox. Addressing a different issue, I note that you added a statement to the article Glencoe, Illinois saying that Robert Shea lived there, Someone has tagged it as requiring a citation, so it is likely to be removed unless you provide an inline reference to a reliable source. I don't see reference to Glencoe in his bio article. He died in Glencoe, but we need a ref that he lived there for some appreciable period of time. Regards, Edison (talk) 19:29, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Here we go: Obit in the Chicago Tribune said he was a Glencoe resident. Do you want to add it to the two articles, or shall I? Edison (talk) 19:31, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Jalapeño

You may well be right about jalapeño being a condiment per the definition in the list article. In my mind, a condiment is something beside the food, while I prefer to think of (and use) jalapeño as something in the food, an ingredient. But it was the other edits I reacted to, and the removal of jalapeño was kind of collateral damage, for which I apologise. Regards! --T*U (talk) 20:19, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Sistema Plastics

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 Sistema Plastics 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 a company, corporation or organization, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
