Frances Kazan

This article came to my attention because the subject of the article contacted OTRS about some inaccuracies.

I deleted the page as it failed to assert why the subject qualified for an encyclopedia entry. You are free to recreate it with the proper assertion, I can email you the content of the deleted page if you'd like.

I've suggested to the subject that they correspond with you directly about any issues and mentioned that we'd prefer any facts to be verifiable from 3rd party reliable sources.

Page Deletion

edit

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I'll make sure to double-check my sources next time. I'll try to find some more reliable sites and re-write if and when I can. Thanks! Rex User (talk) 21:03, 3 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Cornelia Nixon

edit
 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Cornelia Nixon, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Cannot find multiple non-trivial mentions in independent, reliable sources to support notability, despite claims in article. Awards are not "major national awards"; fails WP:PROFESSOR and WP:CREATIVE.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Madeleine Bemelmans

edit

Hi, I noticed that you created Madeleine Bemelmans, but listed no sources for the information contained in the article. According to Wikipedia's content policies, all information must be verifiable from reliable sources. Therefore, it's necessary to cite your sources so other editors can check that the information included in the article is correct and matches the sources used. Information not previously published in such sources is prohibited as original research, since other editors can't verify it. Unsourced information may be challenged and removed at any time, and articles that can't be verified are likely to be deleted. Guidance on how to cite your sources is available, and if you need any further help, feel free to leave a message on my talk page.--Unscented (talk) 21:54, 12 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of College Green Magazine

edit
 

A tag has been placed on College Green Magazine 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 web content, 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 web content.

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.
