The article Not Another B Movie has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- non-notable film, there are not sufficient sources available that are independent or significant enough to justify this film having its own article.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

June 2012[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Z.D. Smith. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Z.D. Smith, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:48, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
Copyvio of an unreliable source[edit]
Thanks for contributing the new article Z.D. Smith. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable, by being clearly attributed to reliable sources. Please help by adding more sources to the article you created, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the material (see here for how to do inline referencing). Many thanks! PS If you need any help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me.
Welcome to Wikipedia. Please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not include unsupported or inaccurate statements. Whenever you add possibly controversial statements about a living person to an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did to Z.D. Smith, you must include proper sources. If you don't know how to cite a source, you may want to read Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners for guidelines.
Your addition to Z.D. Smith has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. JFHJr (㊟) 06:49, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
Hello, Zedudems. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Z.D. Smith, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations.
Please do not write an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Z.D. Smith. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator.
...To be clear: Please have a read at WP:NOTYOU, WP:AUTO, and WP:COI for good advice about having Wikipedia articles written by or on behalf of living persons. Given your copyright violation, above, I urge you to refrain from editing this and other biographies of living persons until you are willing to write about unrelated parties and cite to reliable sources. Cheers. JFHJr (㊟) 06:49, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

A note[edit]
Please understand that Wikipedia has grave concerns when editors write about themselves or about topics with which they are too intimately connected. See WP:NAY. As was noted further above, Wikipedia notability is determined by a topic receiving coverage in multiple reliable sources. If some of the articles you created end up being deleted, please also understand that in your now being aware of WP:COI, as topics they may simply be premature for Wikiepdia. And while you are always welcome to speak in defense of these topics at their various AFD's, it would be best to refrain from futher edits to those topics and perhaps turn your attention to contributing to other topics in which you do not have an interest.
