Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because this person has wroitten a whole text book series, has taught at at the most famous deaf schools in history, is a notably accalimed poet (hence the The Treasure). She has also done great work for the deaf community i was still editing this page and was going to continue to work on it. She is one of the greatest influences to deaf culture. I also provided a reference list in which i found all my information. If you also look on the deaf culture page she is noted in it. She has lived to improve interpreting as well as inform and enirch peoples minds of the ASL. She is also the CEO of ASL Presents. She has done otable performances listed here as well as has had a full caeer in researching also listed here. She has lead many deaf workshops to help others become aare of the issue of deaf culture and audism. if you go to the site www.aslpresents.com/products.html you will see what works she has done also there you can find out other places where she recieves notable recognition. I hope this helps myh statement that Ella should not be deleted off this website.I thought this website allows you to build with what you have an continue to edit. That is what I have been doing. I do hope you reconsider as this is due for my class wed Aslforever02 (talk) 00:49, 13 December 2011 (UTC) also the reason this was going to be deleted becasue I didnt have enough information to make this person a notable person Aslforever02 (talk) 00:49, 13 December 2011 (UTC)— Aslforever02 (talk) 00:49, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

• I've removed the speedy deletion tag because you make a reasonable claim of notability, but I've left the "prod" tag because the article is a mess and the claim of notability might not stand up to close scrutiny. You should read the guidelines, including WP:BIO and try to fix the problems with the article. Simply improving the layout would help! Have a look at some other biographical articles and see how they've done it. andy (talk) 13:54, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
