Proposed deletion of "Peter Joseph Swanson"

edit
 

The article "Peter Joseph Swanson" has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This person does not appear to meet notability requirements (specifically Wikipedia:AUTHOR); there are no reliable sources and I cannot find any. See also WP:VRS.

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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.  Chzz  ►  18:27, 2 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from writing autobiographical articles. Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged; if you create such an article, it may be deleted. All edits to articles must conform to our policies on no original research, neutral point of view, and avoid conflicts of interest. Please remember that Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia, not a personal webspace provider. If your achievements are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you.  Chzz  ►  18:29, 2 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
