If you've come here having recently created a page that has just been marked to say it may soon be deleted, then please understand that we mean no harm in deleting your page. In fact, we welcome you to Wikipedia. We're delighted to have you, but the page you created seemed to be something other than an encyclopedia article. If it was a test, congratulations – you succeeded in creating a page. Please use the sandbox for further testing, or create a user page for yourself.

If your article was not a test, you may have created a page that met the criteria for speedy deletion. If so, please see our guidelines on writing perfect stubs to see how you could improve the page to something that will not be instantly deletable.

For more information, please read our deletion policy.

Using this page

For articles that need deletion, add {{deletebecause|Reason.}} or {{db|Reason.}} to the top of the page. You should not wipe out the contents as it helps to check the contents to be deleted without having to look at the page history. This expands to:

Template loop detected: Template:Db-reason

Replace Reason with the reason why the page should be deleted under the speedy deletion criteria.

Other templates available that give a reason include {{nonsense}} and {{db-bio}}. They may be used where appropriate.

(You can also use {{delete}} or {{d}} if you prefer not to provide a reason, but it is generally a good idea to provide a reason, even where it seems "obvious" to you.)

Note that if you just replace the content with {{db|reason}} the prior content will not be automatically added to the deletion log summary when the page is deleted.

See below for instructions regarding the deletion of personal subpages.

For articles that do not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, please use Wikipedia:Proposed deletion (for deletions likely to meet no opposition) or Wikipedia:Articles for deletion (for controversial deletions). Please do not list pages here that are already listed there.

Advice for administrators

  • Review our admin deletion guidelines
  • Use Category:Candidates for speedy deletion for a list of pages
  • Check talk pages, page history, what links here (especially for potentially controversial user pages), etc. If there is a dispute over whether the page should be deleted, consider first listing it on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion
  • If the page to be deleted is directly related to a specific user or that user's activities, consider moving the page to that user's personal userspace (and deleting the redirect) instead of deleting it outright.
  • Don't worry too much [1] — new pages patrol is unpleasant, and people will make mistakes. Wikipedia:Speedy deletion patrol goes through the deletion logs to catch stuff that shouldn't have been speedied, without rancor or excessive red tape. Feel free to be efficient!

Deletion of personal pages

Unless you are a sysop, it is not possible to delete your own user pages and subpages, so they must be listed here. If you are a sysop, it is recommended that you also list your pages here so they can be deleted by another sysop. For your main user or talk pages, you must list them here, not delete them yourself, to avoid the appearance that sysops can delete to hide negative comments, while others can't.

Only post pages from your own personal page, and only if you have a genuine reason for requesting a personal page of yours be deleted, please list it here.

Please see Wikipedia:User page for further instructions, and Wikipedia talk:Personal subpages to be deleted for past discussion on this issue.

Requested

Note: For faster response, please add {{deletebecause|Reason.}} or {{db|Reason.}} as mentioned above.

Steve Garfield

Steve Garfield was an article that was deleted as a result of an AfD almost a year ago but has since been recreated. This article should be speedied. --Strothra 02:04, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why was it deleted then? Is this the same text? __meco 12:21, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Steve_Garfield article seems to have been deleted for lack of notability and autobiographical reasoning. I can't, of course, know what the original content was. Kevin_b_er 00:21, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Humphrey Davies

  • Humphrey Davies appears to be self advert for creating user. Fiddle Faddle 11:57, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Interesting. No sooner listed than the suggestion was removed. However it was not removed with any rationale, just the simple word "no" in the edit history. I thought that it was customary to give reasons. Now that's OK, but the article still looks like the guy's resume, and it appears on the user page of the contributing editor in the same form (though possibly not word for word), not a wikipedia article of note. So perhaps a review would be in order? Fiddle Faddle 12:07, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I got fooled by the user page too, but it's there because another editor userfied the original article as a vanity page. So the article is the original and the user page is the copy, and the original author says it's not him (and his somewhat shaky use of the language would support that). It's definitely not a great article, but looks like notability may be satisfied. · rodii · 22:55, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Works for me, I guess. The article needs to be picked up by someone who knows the subject and made work better though. It still looks like a resume, not an article for an encyclopaedia. Fiddle Faddle 23:12, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • The speedy tag was so utterly ridiculous I couldn't think of anything better to say than "no". Given what I said when I worked ou a topical edit summary, that's probably a Good Thing. This article is clearly not a candidate for speedy deletion; it's arguable whether it might survive AfD. Inappropriately tagged articles should be untagged as soon as possible and with a vigorous shaking of the head movement for maximum effect; providing a reason is polite, but then, so is not tagging articles like this for speedy deletion. fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 05:06, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I had a lecturer at university who used the word "Clearly" when things were abundantly clear to him. Regrettably they were not often clear to those lectured. To me it appeared to qualify for "speedy", to you it does not. Since, presumably, this page is to argue either for or against such an action, and since it is unclear, certainly to me, why you untagged it with a vigorous shake of the head, perhaps you might be kind enough to clarify your rationale. we newer editors can always learn, but we should also not be discouraged from acting when we see something that appears to us as such a candidate. Could you also say whether "it's arguable whether it might survive AfD" means you feel it should be proposed there, please? Fiddle Faddle 06:18, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article doesn't meet any of the criteria for speedy deletion. You tagged it as "vanity", which is not and never has been a reason to delete an article. As for AfD, what I meant was, if you feel strongly enough about its need to be deleted to take it to AfD, it probably would be deleted, but might not. Articles that could possibly survive AfD should never be speedy deleted. Speedy deletion means a single admin (or, in cases like this, two users) has/have looked at an article and said "this has to go". There's a lot of crap out there that needs to be gotten rid of as soon as possible — but there's also stuff that isn't crap, and we should be interpreting things like A7 narrowly to avoid accidentally speedying articles that could be worthwhile. fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 07:19, 12 June 2006 (UTC
  • Thanks. Now I understand better. I think, from my perspective, this discussion can die. I now see that it was not a speedy candidate. I'll look at AfD and reconsider my thoughts. Fiddle Faddle 07:57, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think, personally, this article can stand in a place I can see a 6 lines entry about Prince Hamza of Jordan, just for him being a royal ass! And even if ya argue that royal asses are important and everything, I do beleive what have been mentioned here is enough for a begining, and more than a begining. Mr.Davies surely a notable figure. So I think he deserve a start up page (I do insist it's more tha that) holding his name. Am sorry for being harsh somehow, but I really said what I felt like saying. My respects.chadibaggio
  • If, chadibaggio, you feel so strongly in favour of this article, it seems to me that you are going about things in a very odd way. Leaving it on your user page as "you" is odd, and so is signing your comment here with your name and pointing it to me. How hard is it to use ~~~~ to sign your own name? Still the article is no longer a speedy candidate. I doubt Prince Hamza of Jordan is relevant here. Nor is comparison to another person particularly useful as an argument to retain the article. Fiddle Faddle 07:09, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • why haven't ya translate it, funny boy? (I did some revisions to my lines above) anyway thanks for the link thing.chadibaggio

Rod Bernard

After receiving a speedy deletion notice, I revised the "Rod Bernard" entry to indicate the subject's importance (now contained in the opening sentence). This should address the deletion notice's primary concern.

Please note that I intend this entry to serve as a "stub," since Wikipedia had a link for "Rod Bernard" but no actual entry for this subject. I plan to expand the entry periodically.

I have since revised and expanded the entry considerably since making the initial entry this morning.

Category:SFWA_Writer_Beware_Worst_Literary_Agents

These are listed under CSD A6. A number of other articles that were in the same category have already been deleted, presumably for the same cause. These pages were not "created primarily to disparage its subject". They were created because I felt that Wikipedia ought to have articles about these agencies, which achieved notability through being listed in the list that the category was named after (available here). Note that the information quoted in them is verifiable under the meaning of WP:Verifiable, that article having been produced on behalf of a well-known and respected professional body in the field of publishing. I don't think the verifiable truth can be disparaging. Fortunately, I've been able to save the text of Barbara Bauer, which had been edited a number of times before it was deleted. Can somebody clarify whether that article (which had similar information, but more in-depth) could be recreated? JulesH 00:55, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I see the articles have been deleted but the category remains and the request for deletion has been removed from it. What does this mean? Would recreating the articles be appropriate? If not, then it would probably be best to delete the category anyway, as there will clearly never be anything in it. JulesH 06:56, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

adhocipedia

Adhocipedia Someone deleted it, believing it to be implicitly WP:NN, please note that it may be about an encyclopedia of NN, but it itself is not NN because the encyclopedia's existence may be more notable than its content. Also, yes it only has 2 articles, but the point of the article on Wikipedia was to attempt to rectify that situation.CMIIW 15:50, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So it was advertising? Anyway, though the fact that it's on non-notable subjects doesn't make it non-notable, it may be non-notable for other reasons (such as the fact that it has only 2 articles). --Ihope127 19:00, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thirupathi

This has been listed per CSD G5. I disagree that it qualifies under G5 as it was made by the banned user User:The Man's Plans on 7 April 2006 [2] before he was banned on 24 April 2006 [3]. I undertand CSD G5 qualifies if the page is made while a user is banned per WP:CSD -- Samir धर्म 04:51, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the only contributors to this article are the puppets of Prin. So, he is unavailable to cite any references or answer questions about this article. As to the article itself, the film is a masala entertainer. It is certainly not a classic to enter any encyclopaedia. Anwar 04:54, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I put a hangon on one of these articles yesterday. It was a fairly solid article about a movie that looks to be notable (not sure), although it needs sourcing. I fail to see whether it matters or not if the user is banned, if the article itself is good. Put it up for AfD and see if anyone else is willing to modify the article to correct deficiencies, if any, that's my suggestion. ++Lar: t/c 04:44, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As I've said before, if I were banned tomorrow, would India at the Cricket World Cup and Debaters Association Victoria and numerous other articles be simply deleted?? Nobleeagle (Talk) 07:22, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I understood G5 to apply to articles created AFTER someone was banned, which presumably India at the Cricket World Cup (not that I care a whit about cricket, I mean really! Incomprehensible, silly game, let's rid WP of ALL cricket articles!. LOL... KIDDING! ) is not, having been written in the past prior to any theoretical ban. G5 however does seem to offer an escape clause in that an article authored by a banned user after the ban can nevertheless be taken under the wing of someone else (who then "assumes responsibility" for it as it were) if that person substantially edits it. The article I refer to I did not substantially edit but I did put a hangon tag on it. ++Lar: t/c 14:55, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Guy Branum

Guy is a performer and writer on X-play, a cult hit video game review/sketch show on G4tv. there are numerous links to him, on the x-play page, the x-play minor characters page, and the page for weezy and the swish, a podcast on which he's a frequent guest and guest host. i thought it'd be nice to have a short entry on him. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Guyball (talk • contribs) .

Rob Hain

This is a biography relating to the life and work of Rob Hain and as such is an art stub. It will be added to in due course as more information becomes available. In the mean time other users are at liberty to make changes or to add to the content as they see fit. Rob Hain has illustrated books which are for sale through Amazon and is understandably eager to give any background information on his work which may lead to greater understanding.

TwoWayMonologues

If PopMatters and Tiny Mix Tapes can have pages, why not TwoWayMonologues? It updates more often than Tiny Mix Tapes, and is just as important.

Greg Wain

This page should not be considered a vanity page. Greg Wain is a figurehead, headmaster, and currenlty holds a position of authority. He should be considered relevant. Note: for further information on Mr. Wain, Google 'Greg Wain'.

According to Wikipedia: "An article is "important" enough to be included in Wikipedia if any one of the following is true:

There is evidence that a reasonable number of people are, were or might be concurrently interested in the subject (eg. it is at least well-known in a community). It is an expansion (longer than a stub) upon an established subject. Discussion on the article's talk page establishes its importance.

If an article is "important" according to the above then there's no reason to delete it on the basis of it being: of insufficient importance, fame or relevance, or currently small or a stub, or obscure. (Detailed obscure topics hurt no-one because it's hard to find them by accident, and Wikipedia isn't paper.)"

Greg Wain is well known amongst the private school and Gold Coast community (this community exceeds 200,000 persons). This article is an expansion of the The Southport School 'wikipage', and hopefully the discussion here establishes his importance.

I look forward to any feedback.

  • I'd suggest this become a paragraph in The Southport School. Searching for notability, the best I can find is this newspaper article [5], which points out that the Southport School is not performing well, despite being the most expensive school in Queensland. "TSS principal Greg Wain did not return The Courier-Mail's call." --John Nagle 23:11, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not Speedy. Suggest AfD. The segment "Greg Wain along with John D. Mayer published a series of papers on young-male adult's emotional intelligence. These paper's were later distributed in early 2002 to 90% of all the Greater Public School's within Australia. The paper's showed the capacity to perceive and understand emotions define a new variable in personality." may, if developed, have sufficient claim to notability. I suggest this is moved to AfD to allow time for development, investigation or discussion. Those papers themselves are an attribute of Wain, not the school, so a merge would be inapproproate for that part of the topic Fiddle Faddle 16:51, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anthony Ulwick

While Mr. Ulwick does not have other articles by or about him on Wikipedia, this was an attempt to disseminate his business philosophy and that of his company, Strategyn. While interest in his company and practices may seem rather niche and therefore unworthy of inclusion, he is a trailblazer in market segmentation and the furthering of the Six Sigma standard. While this is, granted, a lot of area to cover, there is only so much that can be done in the initial article. However, there is indeed an audience of business professionals who want to know more about this author and speaker.69.28.160.194 23:36, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • I see. Then the Wikipedia listings for Microsoft and Nintendo, whose pages include descriptions of their yet-to-be released products, will be coming down soon as well, yes? 69.28.160.194 18:20, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Microsoft and Nintendo are both multi-national, multi-million dollar companies, both very notable... - Adolphus79 21:54, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Is the bar for an encyclopedia that entries only cover subjects a reader might already know about? Or to supply answers for questions one might ask? To say descriptions of products fairly represents a company, as is true in the Microsoft and Nintendo examples, but that descriptions of a company's founder is a vanity piece is frankly quite odd. I use Wikipedia to find information on topics I do not know everything about already, not to look up information on common knowledge. Incidentally, I am not Mr. Ulwick. I am merely trying to supply information about him and his company. Wikipedia is replete with entries of other such notables and their companies. I have made great efforts to make this article mimic those in style and format.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Mightyseo (talk • contribs)
  • I agree with Nagle, notability has not been proven, and the author of this article has only written it, and the article for Mr. Ulwick's company (Strategyn)... I assume the author is Mr. Ulwick, in which case, this would make a fine user page... - Adolphus79 21:52, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dead Boy's Poem

Many bands have pages on wikipedia. This page is in the process of being created so that information on the band would be more accesable. People are interested in this band and this is a place other that the bands home page where people can find out things. Many Evanescence fans are interested in covers and tributs done of evanescence's musicc and this band provides that. I do not believe it should be deleted. or it should atleast be given a chance to prove that it is worthy of Wikipedia.

Rebecca Hunter

I placed my rationale on the talk page, but in case it's not spotted I'll repeat here :

  • Regular character on the flagship soap opera of one of the UK's terrestrial channels (the character had an article long before the actress did!)
  • Lead character on BAFTA-winning childrens' sitcom.
  • Was member of pop group (allSTARS) who had four top-twenty hits in the UK, including one at #9 (see everyhit.com and search for "allstars")
  • Was considered famous enough by the producers of the long-running and popular Never Mind the Buzzcocks to be invited as a panelist.

If nothing else, I would suggest taking the article to AfD. I certainly don't feel it's a speedy candidate. Seb Patrick 11:17, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

George R. Binks

This page is 100% true and rooted in fact as anyone who has read Star Wars Tales 20 can attest to. I find it disrespectful that I and Clever curmudgeon would be written off as "tricksters" so easily after many exciting and useful contributions to wikipedia. If you check this page, I'm sure you will be able to see that the George R. Binks in question does appear in the issue and was including long before I created the article. I hope that the intrusive warnings that appear at the top of the articles page can be removed quickly and we can all put this behind us. Iodyne 18:34, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'd suggest deletion per WP:FICT. This is a minor character in a minor non-canon comic which verges on fan fiction. This kind of stuff belongs in Wookiepedia. --John Nagle 22:58, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    Do not bring your personal opinions and point of views to wikipedia. The article is based on a character that exists in the Star Wars universe, and thus, there is no reason an article should not be dedicated to George R Binks as there are hundreds of other articles dedicated to Star Wars characters. The sources are true and there is proof against the verifiability of these sources. clever curmudgeon 02:50, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    Wikipedia policy (WP:FICT)is that "Non-notable minor characters (and places, concepts, etc.) in a work of fiction should be merged with short descriptions into a "List of characters." --John Nagle 03:24, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Catorce

I knew I was restoring a deleted page, so I was very careful in my work and in placing notice on the talk page, so I am dissappointed the article was still flagged.

As I said on my page... this is part of my continuing project to write about the notable performers in Arizona.

This was a vanity article, deleted in May 2006. I have re-created the article with links and an objective POV. There are no set Wikipedia guidelines for notability for improv groups, as there are for bands and musicians, but JRC is a notable figure (yes, that is his legal name) in both Arizona improv and music, as is Ryan Avery (though there are not Wikipedia articles about them at the time I'm writing this, there will be soon).

Because the vanity article was under the search phrase "catorce improv," and that still comes up in the search engine, I have re-directed that phrase to this page.

I have invited those who nominated the original article for deletion, or voted on the nomination, to go to the Catorce:Talk page with any comments! Parsssseltongue 00:01, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just added to the Talk page associated with my Hearty White page the fact that the main newspaper, the Tallahassee Democrat, has done several articles mentioning Hearty White; however, they're now archived for paying subscribers. But they exist. And I didn't want that to go unnoticed, now that the Talk page may be "speedy deleted" simply because the Hearty White article was. Tallahassee 13:18, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is this about Hearty White or Tallahassee? · rodii · 15:49, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

List of non-Kremling Donkey Kong enemies

I've only just created this article, and it has already been flagged. The page is under construction, so of course there isn't much there yet, but it'll grow. The page was proposed on the Kremling talk page and I really can't see how it fits the speedy deletion criteria. I've been working on it for about 10 minutes. As Tallahassee said above, please just "give me a chance"! All I can say is that there must be some pretty over-enthusiastic editors out there! RobbieG 12:06, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Frank Dobson (football)

I think that it's a tough action to speedy this. Paradoxically, I would however argue that it should be renamed, as the subject is from the sport of American football, rather than football (a.k.a. "Association Football) --Dweller 15:50, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I made the article and will be expanding it shortly; he passes the Wiki test for notability, however. WillC 15:55, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The S&M Man

This article does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion. It is verifiable, and is as notable as the song I Used to Work in Chicago, which also has its own page.

British African-Caribbean community

I've made a mess of redirecting British Afro-Caribbean community to British African-Caribbean community. Can I please have the latter deleted so I can move it properly.--Zleitzen 23:27, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
