Proposed deletion of OptionRally[edit]

The article OptionRally has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The referencing is seriously lacking. This appears to be WP:ADMASQ. with pseudo-references to generic things, directories or PR pieces. The routes for this are deletion, improvement where it stands, or return to draft space to be worked on. We require references from significant coverage about the topic of the article, and independent of it, and in WP:RS please. See WP:42. References that do not comply with this need to be replaced.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

Nomination of OptionRally for deletion[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article OptionRally is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/OptionRally until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Fiddle Faddle 21:18, 20 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

April 2015[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to OptionRally, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. You will probably not realise this, but it is not appropriate to move an article to another namespace during an WP:AFD discussion. During that discussion you may, should you so wish, ask for a move to be the outcome of that discussion. I have undone your move. Fiddle Faddle 22:12, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
