A page you created has been nominated for deletion because it is a biography of a living person that is entirely negative in tone and has unsourced content, according to section G10 of the criteria for speedy deletion.
Do not create articles about living people that are entirely negative in tone and unsourced. Wikipedia has a policy of verifiability and any negative information we use must be reliably sourced, and our articles must be balanced. Negative, unreferenced biographies of living people, along with attack pages, are not tolerated by Wikipedia, and users who create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy may be blocked from editing.

- Hello, Lizoliphant,
- Wikipedia has strict rules about Biography of Living Persons. For controversial content or negative content, Wikipedia requires multiple reliable sources. It's not that this person isn't a good subject for an article, you just need to have solid secondary sources (books, magazines, newspapers, journals) to support any claims you make about his life.
- If you have questions about BLP policy or editing on Wikipedia, please bring your concerns to the Teahouse where experienced editors can offer you help & advice. Liz Read! Talk! 02:34, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
