Patrick He[edit]

The article Patrick He has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.


Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki 21:03, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I have a question. I wrote an article about Patrick He, who was an author, which was why he was notable, so why was it deleted? If there was something else wrong with it, I would be glad to know and then change it and re-create the page. Cat1234 22:21, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The links to guidelines above should be helpful. If he sold a lot of books, or won awards, or had significant things written about him in independent papers etc, then he'd be notable. Hope this helps (belatedly). - Fayenatic (talk) 14:02, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Death Penalty Report, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest 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. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. 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.

Since it sounds like an essay, is there a way to make it seem more like an article? Also, if I changed it that way, and added it to the Capital Punishment article, would it be okay?Cat1234 22:23, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

July 2007[edit]

Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from articles that you have created yourself, as you did with Haw-she Man. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Anakin 17:44, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia! I think the reason your article was nominated for speedy deletion as nonsense it that is it presents it as fact instead of as a ghost story or legend. Check out Zwarte Piet or a good example of an article on a character from folklore. Good luck! User:Mcwatson

Please do not continue to create this article. It will not survive, and re-creation of deleted articles tends to be seen as vandalism. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 22:13, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Stanley's Password[edit]

A tag has been placed on Stanley's Password, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Gromlakh (talk) 21:34, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
