Help me!

[edit]

Why was my information on Jill Sebastian with a credible reference deleted after submitting a reason to not have a speedy deletion?

Please help me with understanding how I can build a page without it being quickly deleted before it is finished.

Thank you,

Riley Niemack

  • I don't see any deleted contributions from this account to Jill Sebastian. Two versions of that article have been deleted: one said only "Jill Sebastian is an Artist and Professor living and working in Milwaukee, Wisconsin", which does not give any explanation of why she is important or significant enough to have an article in an encyclopedia; the other was a gushing "sweet baby angel from up above. Blessed by thy Jill for we love her so... " possibly suitable for somewhere like Facebook, but not for a serious encyclopedia. Neither had any references at all.
The way to make an article without having it prematurely deleted is:
If you want to go ahead, first collect references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" te establish WP:Notability; then use WP:Articles for creation to make a draft article, which you can work on until it is ready, with less risk of premature deletion.
