Proposed deletion of Craig R. Smith edit

 

The article Craig R. Smith has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Person not of sufficient notability to have his own article

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Robert Bohn edit

 

A tag has been placed on Robert Bohn 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.

Hang-on! edit

Before you create any more biog articles can you read up here WP:BIO and here WP:NOTE as I feel that the subjects of the articles you are currently writing do not meet the criteria for inclusion. Thanks. Trevor Marron (talk) 00:48, 29 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

AFD edit

Thanks! edit

Thanks for adding article on the chief executive officers of Fortune 500 companies. These are major figures in corporate America and clearly pass the notability guidelines. If you have some time, it would be helpful to add additional citations to other news stories regarding the executives and their leadership roles and other activities.
