The European Destubathon

All WP:Scotland members are invited to participate in The European Destubathon in April. Primary objective: Blast away as many of our 760,000+ Euro stubs as possible! Around £2300 available in Amazon voucher prizes which can be used to buy books for content, though it can also be treated as an editathon if you're not interested in competing! Minimum content to be added to each article just to ensure that they're over a stub, though longer expansions also welcome. A good chance to earn a few hundred for expanding many of our Scottish and European stubs. Previous contests were really enjoyable and I'm hoping this one will be too and help benefit the Scotland project too! Sign up if interested. Thanks! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:37, 7 March 2025 (UTC)

[[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[:Ladywell School]]

File:Ambox warning yellow.svg

The article :Ladywell School has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced and unimproved for over 15 years. Fails WP:NSCHOOL.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|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.
