- Please sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes (
~~~~ ). This will automatically insert your "signature" (your username and a date stamp). The File:Button sig.png or File:Insert-signature.png button, on the tool bar above Wikipedia's text editing window, also does this. - If you would like to play around with your new Wiki skills without changing the mainspace, the Sandbox is for you.

[[Draft:List of things named after Jawaharlal Nehru|List of things named after Jawaharlal Nehru]] moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, List of things named after Jawaharlal Nehru, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:Category:Species named after India]]
A tag has been placed on :Category:Species named after India requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
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. —swpbT • go beyond • bad idea 16:28, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
