Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Nathan Eswine requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on 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. Eagles 24/7 (C) 22:49, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Nathan Eswine

[edit]

The article Nathan Eswine has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable, fails WP:BIO

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Suspected sockpuppet

[edit]

You are suspected of sockpuppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the notes for the suspect, then respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Thebadgey. Thank you.

Hi, User:Thebadgey. I have had to delete the article Nathan Eswine and protected it from being created for two weeks. You have recreated the article three times, despite being told multiple times that you shouldn't.

For an article to be included on Wikipedia, the author must show why the subject of that article is notable, which basically means that a reliable third-party publication has written about that subject. These reliable sources can be newspaper articles, magazine articles, articles in reliable websites (usually if they or their parent company has an article here, they're notable and reliable), a television show, etc etc. Wikipedia:Notability (people) also gives more information about how you can show that a person is notable. I have found nothing at Google to indicate that Nathan Eswine meets our threshold for notability, and until that occurs, an article on that person should not exist.

I suggest you also read Wikipedia:Your first article, which is a guide to some things you should know before creating your first Wikipedia article. From your username, I believe you may actually be Nathan Eswine, so you should also read Wikipedia:Autobiography, which is a guideline to writing articles about yourself. Generally, it is discouraged, except in special circumstances such as reverting vandalism. If you believe you do deserve an article written about yourself, you can ask at WP:REQUEST for another editor to create that article.

As I stated in the previous message, you have been accused of "sock puppetry". This means that someone suspects you of using more than one username (or account) in an unconventional way; in this case, creating and editing the same article. Users are usually only allowed one username, and any additional accounts can be blocked indefinitely from editing. I should also advise you here that it would be unwise to ask your friends or family to create an article about you at Wikipedia. This is known as "meat puppetry", and carries the same penalty as socking.

For what it's worth, I don't believe you have recreated the article or used two accounts to be intentionally disruptive, rather that you are new to the site and unfamiliar with our policies and guidelines; however, if you continue to create the article or additional accounts, it won't look good for you. If you have any questions, you can either reply here or contact me on my own talk page, and I'll try to help and explain anything other questions you might have. All the best, Matthewedwards :  Chat  02:51, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article Nathan Eswine has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, 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. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
