Speedy deletion nomination of Catchment hydrology[edit]
A tag has been placed on Catchment hydrology requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Hitro talk 16:11, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
July 2009[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Catchment hydrology, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. WuhWuzDat 16:18, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
status[edit]
As reviewing administrator I think it has possibilities, so I changed the tag to "underconstruction" This will give you a few days to add content. In practice, it doesn't usually work out well to create articles without references. So say where. Articles without references are likely to get deleted. I advise you to do this very quickly, before the article gets nominated for deletion by a regular deletion process. And please see also our general guide to writing Wikipedia articles .

A tag has been placed on Department of Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
It has no explanation of what the article is, and only contains one sentence of when it was founded.
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.
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 deleted 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
