Speedy deletion nomination of A. Sea Herndon
edit
A tag has been placed on A. Sea Herndon 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
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. -Erik (talk) 03:09, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, regarding this, if you want the article to be kept you need to indicate importance. The article says, "A. Sea Herndon is an American poet" (there are millions); "former member of the Stuckist art movement" (membership in a movement usually doesn't make you notable), "and author of The Manifesto of the American Stuckists" (the book is unranked on amazon, so was not very popular). I don't think we have articles for every Joe Somebody who writes a book, so you'll need something else for this article to be kept. Just letting you know. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to help. -Frazzydee|✍ 05:01, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
The article A. Sea Herndon has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Non-notable, or no indication of notability.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
Since you seem certain that the subject is notable, I hope that 7 days will give you enough time to provide further indication of notability. As I wrote earlier, it is my opinion that, based on the article that exists now, there is no indication of sufficient notability. Thanks. -Frazzydee|✍ 17:33, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, I left a note on the talk page for the article, but just in case you don't see it, I removed the proposed deletion tag. Sorry about that, and thank you for your contributions! Let me know if I can help. -Frazzydee|✍ 02:32, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
