You embedded raw urls into references by using {{URL}} instead of leaving a reference. The tools used to expand references can't work on those so please don't do it again. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:43, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's quite unclear to me what you're trying to say, so I'll have to guess. I did not add {{URL}} anywhere. I merely moved existing such references.

An article you recently created, 2022 Russian mystery deaths, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

The article Jack (geometry) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This appears to be a random collection of references that have separately used the title term inconsistently to refer to different shapes, with no depth of content beyond nomenclature. It is more about the name than any one shape, violating WP:NOTDICT. There is no evidence that there is a significant body of geometric research on a single specific shape with this name.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:44, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
