Hi , thank you for linking to this. I am sorry if there is any offence caused with the wording of this, I agree in hindsight it was poorly worded and written on my behalf. I have been a member contributing to Wikipedia for 16 years and I value its use. I can only deeply apologise for this. Swans07 (talk) 20:52, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because... (your reason here) -- it is a personal user page, why is it being deleted?82.4.85.211 (talk) 15:19, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

Under criterion U5 of the speedy deletion criteria. Quoting from WP:NOTWEBHOST: "Wikipedians have individual user pages, but they should be used primarily to present information relevant to work on the encyclopedia. Limited autobiographical information is allowed, but user pages do not serve as personal webpages, blogs, or repositories for large amounts of material irrelevant to collaborating on Wikipedia...Personal web pages are often speedily deleted under criterion U5."

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because (this has already been contested and appealed and won, there is no reason to delete as the page is information and about works. Requester seems to have some sort of ulterior motive here without providing valid reason?) --Swans07 (talk) 10:29, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Swans07. Thank you for your work on Victoria Saints Bowls Club. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Thanks for creating this article on a long-standing bowling club. Regarding sources, I note that there are some unreferenced sections, with most of the references being routine listings or from the club itself. It would hence be helpful to have more reliable sources supporting the history. Nevertheless, and influential club with more than a century of history is likely to be notable.

Please find some secondary sources with SIGCOV of this subject where possible, otherwise it may be difficult for the article to remain on Wikipedia.
