Speedy deletion nomination of Jose Pineda edit

 

A tag has been placed on Jose Pineda requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

July 2009 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Jose Pineda, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. GrooveDog (talk) (Review) 23:06, 14 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

You need to pay attention to what GrooveDog said above: don't remove the speedy deletion tags. They're being placed on those articles (e.g. Jose Pineda, Oscar Moncada, etc.) because they lack content and don't explain why the subject is notable. A better attempt at a short article would include well-referenced biographical details, and an explanation of the importance of the person in some subject. TheFeds 23:20, 14 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
