Speedy deletion ↗ nomination of :Draft:Malta Escarpment ↗


48px|left|alt=|link= ↗
{{Quote box|quote=<p>If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article ↗.</p><p>You may want to consider using the Article Wizard ↗ to help you create articles.</p>|width=20%|align=right}}
A tag has been placed on :Draft:Malta Escarpment ↗ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement ↗. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://oceanrep.geomar.de/48710/7/Micallef%20et%20al.%20preprint.pdf. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''sentences''. This part is crucial: ''say it in your own words''. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be blocked from editing ↗'''.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials ↗. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission ↗ for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy ↗ for more details, or ask a question here ↗.

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 ↗. <!-- Template:Db-copyvio-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> <span style="font-weight:bold; color:#663399; text-shadow:3px 3px 5px #dda0dd">SmittenGalaxy</span> <span style="font-weight:bold">&#124;</span> <span style="font-style:italic; color:#000080">talk!</span> ↗ 07:51, 13 January 2025 (UTC)

:The article is still draft and not published! I am adding some details from the paper in question. At the moment I actually pasted some text at the bottom at the page which obviously will eventually be rewritten and included within the rest of the text XonMalti (talk) 23:07, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
:there is no button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".
:'''This is a draft article not currently submitted for review.'''
:Wikipedia stated "While there are no deadlines ↗, abandoned drafts may be deleted after six months." I assume there is nothing wrong to having some copied text pasted. I already quoted details from a number of sources. The paper you mentioned is a very long paper. I identified the main points I would like to add but I have had the time to edit again XonMalti (talk) 23:17, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

Proposed deletion ↗ of :Retreat Houses in Malta ↗


left|link=|alt=Notice|48px| ↗

The article :Retreat Houses in Malta ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''Not notable as a list; only source discussing the category "retreat houses in Malta" is a website for the Catholic diocese of Malta listing local retreat houses.'''</blockquote>

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 {{Tlc|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 {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process ↗, but other deletion process ↗es exist. In particular, the speedy deletion ↗ process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion ↗ allows discussion to reach consensus ↗ for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> — Moriwen (talk) 20:48, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

:Thanks for your feedback. The page aims to provide a comprehensive Maltese overview of the subject, similar to the History of Banking in Italy. The page is quite long. Are there any specific sections that need revisiting? Can you kindly refer to a specific example to help me understand your concerns? XonMalti (talk) 05:52, 22 May 2026 (UTC)
::Pretty much every section needs some improvements for me to be comfortable. Stylistic changes I can fix in the review process but the entire article has an off tone. It might just be because of stylistic errors in regards to the manual of style ↗ and not totally unencyclopedic ↗ in nature. <span style="color:#926F17">✶Quxyz✶</span> (talk) 23:08, 22 May 2026 (UTC)
:::Also, History of banking in Italy ↗ is not necessarily the best article. Banking in the United States ↗ might be better but it still suffers from some issues. <span style="color:#926F17">✶Quxyz✶</span> (talk) 23:10, 22 May 2026 (UTC)
