Speedy deletion nomination of How do you create redirects on wikipedia?

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on How do you create redirects on wikipedia? requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. 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, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Misplaced Pages: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 this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages'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. 331dot (talk) 21:21, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Redirects

Hello! I see that you were looking for information about how to create a redirect page. The answer is here: Misplaced Pages:Redirect. If you have any questions just ask me. --MelanieN (talk) 21:24, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Thank you. I just started editing Misplaced Pages last week and I am not used to the code.

Glad to help. Coincidentally I just came across your short article "Nasal splint", and (without realizing it was also by you) I made it into a redirect to "Nasal fracture". If you want to add any further information about the use of splints in nasal fractures, you can add it to that parent article. --MelanieN (talk) 21:39, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Shropshire, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rockhill. 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.
