Reviewing the page for deletion, I think the above comment is probably not actually appropriate. You are the sole author of this page, and have the right to ask for its deletion. The way to have done that is supposed to be, to place {{db-author}} at the top of the page, and use an edit summary such as "sole author requests deletion".

I think requesting deletion is reasonable, because the people described are almost certainly not notable in Wikipedia terms--they have to have done something important enough to be discussed or reported in outside published sources.

Therefore I am deleting it for the original reason, non-notable person. If this was not your intention, and you intend to work further on the article to support it, please leave a message on the talk page and I can undelete it and put it in your user space.

I welcome you to continue contributing to Wikipedia, on people which are more suited to a general encyclopedia.
