Speedy deletion nomination of Spring Ast LIX edit

 

A tag has been placed on Spring Ast LIX 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 company or corporation, 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 companies and corporations.

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.

Spring Ast LIX has the ISBN (13) prefix 978-1-902582 and has over fifty publications to its credit - this may be checked against the British Library's catalogue. However, I am not pushing for Spring Ast LIX to be given a separate entry. It is worth noting, however, that the publishing concern evolved out of the work done at the Auroral & Magnetic Observatory on Rousay. The observatory functions from three sites: Springfield; Braevale and Moan - all on Rousay. An auroral archive is to be found at: http://www.orcadian.co.uk/skynotes/aurora.htm

Rousay edit

Hi Wilberfalse - you seem keen to remove the "fact" tag. There are several problems with the article as it exists and this is not the most important, but it is inappropriate for an edit to state the particulars of a living person without providing some reasonable proof of its accuracy. For all I know John Vetterlein is living in Australia. If its true he lives on the island it needs to be verifiable for it to be included in the article. If you can find a suitable reference I'd be happy to help you add it. Regards. Ben MacDui 19:23, 4 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

From Wilberfalse to Ben MacDui. Please see latest page entries for Rousay - all verifiable - I am here on Rousay after having slipped down from Cadair Idris some eighteen years back.

Yes, the citations you provide seem to be reasonable evidence that Mr Vetterlein does indeed live on Rousay - lucky fellow. I tweaked the reference slightly, although the information you provided meets the basics - thank-you. Thanks also for the note on my talk page. I applaud your interest in Rousay and hope you will be inspired to add more information about our Orcadian articles. Can I also direct you to the policy page WP:COI? I don't know if it is relevant but I hope you find it helpful. If you need any assistance just let me know. Ben MacDui 12:38, 10 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Errata edit

There appears to be an error under my list of contributions in respect of Franz Joseph Haydn. For Symphony No 66 read Symphony No. 86. (I am an active member of the Haydn Society of G.B. and review regulalry in the Society's Journal.)
