Speedy deletion nomination of Joseph Szemse

Hello Cynthiacrespo,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Joseph Szemse for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Hama Dryad (talk · contribs · email) 18:19, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of JosephSzemse

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on JosephSzemse 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, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Joseph Szemse

My grandfather was born in the 1800's. He was a painter of hundreds of oil paintings - he did not sell them. He died in 1956. My mother who is 88 has kept them in mint condition since his death. He now has great great great grandchildren who will inherit these incredible masterpieces and I would like him listed in Wiki so they can read about him when they are older. I have photos of him paining i uploaded in the commons area. I am new to all this and any assist you can be would be great. He is a treasure in Hungary and the US. His paintings will be priceless at some point in time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cynthiacrespo (talk • contribs) 19:39, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

You may want to try creating an article in your userspace or sandbox and work on it there, and when you have it honed to a reasonable degree of completion, it may not be deleted so quickly next time. To meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines, you need to make sure that it meets the minimum criteria. Also, try to gather as many sources as you can and if you need, I will help you format them. I am sorry that I was not in time to save your article, but if you can find some reliable sources and meet the notability guidelines, we may be able to help you.

Hello. I did not delete it. I am not an administrator. Click on this link: sandbox - create your page in your own userspace. I will try to help you find some sources. The article still may not meet the notability guidelines, but if not, we can possibly find a way to commemorate your grandfather. If no one knows about him, he will likely get a page in mainspace deleted again. But you can work on it in your sandbox until we can figure out what else to do.

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 19:56, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
