Ulf Mark Schneider - Request[edit]
Hi Uncle G. It looked like you have an interest in BLP pages and I was hoping you might have a minute to review 3-4 sentences I've proposed at the bottom of Talk:Ulf_Mark_Schneider to expand on the career section (see COI disclosure). It's based primarily on a Financial Times article I can provide a PDF of. Someone tagged it with "request edit", but my understanding is that using Request Edit is for after consensus for the change already appears evident. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Buckeye16505 (talk • contribs) 13:47, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of I Should Have Died[edit]
Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing hoaxes, such as I Should Have Died, is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.
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. Xx236 (talk) 08:01, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
- I am sorry, the redirect has been vandalised, I have restored it and demanded semiprotection. Xx236 (talk) 08:47, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) I have semi'd the redirect for 3 months and of course removed Uncle G's editing privileges. Bishonen | tålk 09:11, 6 March 2023 (UTC).
