A tag has been placed on David M. Johnson, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable. If you can indicate why David M. Johnson is really notable, you can contest the tagging. To do this, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and leave a note on Talk:David M. Johnson, explaining how David M. Johnson is notable. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.
Please read the criteria for speedy deletion (specifically, articles #7) and our general biography criteria. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- Fan-1967 01:34, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
