Given your request at the article's talk page, I have moved the contents of the above article, which was speedily deleted for failing to assert notability, to User:Iamrede2da. You are welcome to work on it there and bring it in line with policies before re-establishing the article.

In order to create a policy-compliant article about this individual, you'll need to be able to assert notability per Wikipedia's notability guidelines on biographies, which will mean utilizing reliable secondary sources, like newspaper articles. An article of this sort would be covered by Wikipedia's guidelines on "biographies of living persons", which in part urges editors to be extremely careful not to include any information that isn't sourced, even if it's true, and also reminds us that biographies particularly must be written from a neutral point of view.

If you have any questions about these policies, please feel free to contact me at my talk page or to ask assistance at Wikipedia's help desk. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:44, 5 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
