Speedy deletion of Pamela Hill

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Pamela Hill requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their 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 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. Rnb (talk) 04:59, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What you need to do

[edit]

You are repeatedly adding a reference to Pamela Hill to the alumni section of Walnut Hills High School. It looks like you may be that Pamela Hill. Please stop editing articles without adding a short explanation of what you've done to the edit summary block below the edit window.

You should also be aware that Wikipedia uses a concept called "notability." Something is suitable for inclusion in the Wikipedia if it is "notable" in some way. Entries in alumni listings really should be for notable people. One criterion for notability in this regard might be that there is, or might be, a Wikipedia artcle on the person. There is no article on Pamela Hill. It seems to have been removed for structural reasons. (Simple lists of links are not sufficient to start off an article.)

Note also, the self-reference is frowned upon. That means that you ought not to begin an article on yourself. Such articles are often removed through a rapid removal process. Wikipedia is theoretically a secondary source. An article on a person ought to be about someone that others have seen fit to write about, either in print or on the web. If there are such items about you, please call them to my attention and I'll look into beginning an article on Pamela Hill myself.

And if Pamela Hill IS an alumna of Walnut Hills High School, a graduation year and the surname she was useing at the time would help me confirm that in appropriate sources.
