Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! As you have noticed I "barged right in" and did some editing on your article making some improvements. I am sure there is much more to be said about Mayor Gamba so it will be interesting to see how the article develops and goes forward. If you have any questions or need any help I will be happy to assist.

The main addition that any article needs to substantially improve is a photo of the subject. If you are authorized to upload a photo of Mr. Gamba I suggest you do so, and attach an appropriate license for its use. Alternatively, Mr. Gamba himself can also upload his own image for use in the article. I suggest you read the image use policy on Wikipedia before proceeding with an image upload. If you will note, the image "Upload file" link is found on the left side of the page under "Tools".

A tag has been placed on Mormon Flag requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/rel-morm.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 removed 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. — Diannaa (talk) 20:20, 2 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The article 2022 Portland, Oregon City Auditor election has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

City auditor of Portland is a minor office and I doubt sufficient sourcing exists to justify an article.

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 {{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 {{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. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:30, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
