Notability
I see that you have had some run-ins with the notability squadron here. Generally, school stuff doesn't stand a chance of surviving here. School elections don't even stand a chance, so creation should be avoided. I see you are still interested in editing here after the two AFDs, so I am willing to help you should you need it.

Speedy deletion nomination of Joynt scroll
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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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 administrators to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

- Thank you for your comment on my talk page. While I am always open to guidance, I have been an admin here for several years and am reasonably familiar with basic policies, including the one you indicate. You have had a number of articles deleted as being non-notable, and there has been comment elating to this here on your talk page. May I suggest you re-read ]

- Hi Wipkipkedia - looking at the AfD for Logan and what is in the local media about him at this stage he doesn't quite make it. I would suggest you park a copy of the article in your sandpit on your user page for future reference and resubmit it when he gets to be notable. The threshold is high and to clear it he will need either national or international award and/or coverage in major national or international media outside of just Dunedin. Your other AfD'd article on Lee looks likely to survive. I have edited it and another NZ wikipedian has added some data. Hope this helps. ]

]- I echo that. An article consisting simply of "Ryman Healthcare is a New Zealand rest home operator" is pure suicide. Your sandbox is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:44, 19 November 2012 (UTC)]

Hello, Wipkipkedia. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Christopher Bishop (politician), for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Christopher Bishop (politician) to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.
If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay

Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.
Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.
Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
