| Hi. I see you have been trying to help with patrolling new pages. Unfortunately, I don't think that you have enough experience on Misplaced Pages to understand the policies needed to help here. You recently tagged an elementary school with an . Educational institutions are exempt from speedy deletion under CSD A7. I have redirected the page per ], but the tag shows that you need a bit more experience before you actively take part in New Page Patrol. I would recommend getting involved with creating some content in a field you enjoy or even ] by patrolling ]. Once you get a bit more experience you can read the tutorial at ] and have a go at patrolling new pages and fighting the backlog! Thanks for your work trying to build Misplaced Pages! ] (]) 03:35, 13 February 2017 (UTC) | |||
| Also, only applies to pages that are virtually completely blank of content. This page had content, so it does not fit A3. ] (]) 03:39, 13 February 2017 (UTC) | |||
| *Hi again. Just wanted to leave a note about placing tags on pages. Generally, the best rule is to try to improve the page rather than place a bunch of tags on at one time. If you do place tags, putting 3 or 4 without combining them can be really difficult for users when they are trying to read the page. Generally a good rule of thumb is to stick to the main issues with a page rather than placing all the possible tags on it. Placing a bunch of tags is called by some ] and can be a bit bitey to newcomers. I also noticed that you placed the NPP icon on your user page. This is not normally done unless you have the user right. {{u|Kudpung}}, who is an admin that works in this field, normally is good to give advice to newcomers who want to help with patrolling new pages, and might be able to give better advice than I have. ] (]) 02:42, 15 February 2017 (UTC) | |||
| *Hi. With only 134 edits to mainspace you fall very short of the required experience to be doing ''any'' maintenance tasks on Misplaced Pages. When you have made 200 mainspace edits you will first qualify to enroll at the ] to learn the basics of anti-vandalism which you should then do before considering any other site management operations. Thanks. ] (]) 03:07, 15 February 2017 (UTC) | |||
| ::in to ] you added three tags: | |||
| ::# "Needs sections": No, a single paragraph does not need to be split into sections | |||
| ::# "Under construction": The whole encyclopedia is permanently "under construction", but that tag is supposed to be added to an article by an editor who is actively engaged in working on it at the present time. It is not appropriate for you to add it unless you are in the process of doing major work on that article, which seems unlikely here. | |||
| ::# "Uncategorised": Fine. But a 1 in 3 success rate is pretty poor. Please take more time to understand the system before tagging other editors' work. Thanks. ]] 15:10, 15 February 2017 (UTC) | |||

Speedy Request
Your contributed article, Willie Rogers (Tuskegee Airman)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Willie Rogers (Tuskegee Airman). First, thank you for your contribution; Misplaced Pages relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Willie Rogers (Tuskegee). Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Misplaced Pages. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Willie Rogers (Tuskegee). If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.
If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Misplaced Pages looks forward to your future contributions. Wm335td (talk) 22:15, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
