User talk:Jlthompson

Welcome!

Hello, Jlthompson, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Muirhead Society, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard. Thank you.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Orange Mike | Talk 23:36, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Muirhead Society

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

Non-notable local club; no evidence of notability other than that some notables spoke to them (or so it is asserted).

While all 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 {{dated prod}} 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 {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Disambiguation link notification for January 7

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Alice Ambrose, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Margaret MacDonald (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I rewrote the article with the references I could find. I'm not an expert on philosophy, so check that I haven't gotten things wrong. The article could use a selected publications sections (including her books), but I'm not sure which of her book chapters and articles are the most important. Thanks for starting this article about such an interesting woman. StarryGrandma (talk) 15:45, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Helen Knight

Hello, I am Helen Knights great grand-niece. She was my mother's Aunt. I found the wiki page a few months ago and it thrilled my family, especially my mother and uncle - Helen Knights niece and nephew, as they didn't know anything about her life or what happened to her, as the family lost touch with her when she moved to Australia.

I wanted to contact you directly, as you seem to because main contributor, and I would like to know how you came to know so much about Helen, and whether you have any other information about her as I would like to share as much as possible with my mother who has only vague memories of her. I also have photographs of her as a child and information about her father and her brother (my grandfather - Max Weil) if you're interested.

I'm keen to learn as much as I can about her. I look forward to hearing from you. Best wishes, Heather MathiesonH (talk) 17:18, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Heather, I have only just seen your message about Helen Knight so sorry for not replying sooner. I wrote the entry on Helen as part of a project to add more women philosophers to Wikipedia. Until recently I was librarian in the Philosophy Faculty at Cambridge. I’m glad to hear that the information was of interest to your family! Best wishes, Jenni Jlthompson (talk) 07:51, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of John Marenbon

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 John Marenbon 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 person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event that 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 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.
