A tag has been placed on Category:2025 Scottish television debuts indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 23:14, 24 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent you a note about a page you started

[edit]

Hi Goodreg3. Thank you for your work on Joe Griffin (civil servant). Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Thanks for creating this biography for the most senior civil servant in Scotland. Well-warranted. My main concern relates to tone - it reads more like a hagiography than a history; remember WP:NPOV.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Klbrain}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

@Klbrain: Thank you for taking the time to review the page. I am, however, struggling to understand your reasoning for describing the page as a hagiography? Goodreg3 (talk) 10:01, 31 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Selective comments such as 'devoted public service and leadership', 'invaluable advice', 'brings a wealth of experience to this role', 'distinguished career ' and 'unyielding focus on delivering'. The point is that these are all pronouncement by politicians on a a civil servant leaving or entering a position - they are meant for pitch or spin, not an objective dispationate analysis. So, the content is correct, but also not from a neutral point of view. See WP:PUFFERY. Klbrain (talk) 12:52, 31 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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.

A tag has been placed on Scottish Reserve Bank, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Replaceable non-free use File:Sharon Rooney.jpeg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Sharon Rooney.jpeg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file's talk page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sophisticatedevening(talk) 21:26, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
