A tag has been placed on George Newton, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why George Newton is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:George Newton. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable. -Fsotrain09 21:15, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

editHi, I've moved the content of George Newton to User:(*)GEORGE(*). Feel free to edit it there until it meets Wikipedia notability standards. -- Scientizzle 21:24, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
You should be sure to consult WP:V & WP:RS on source requirements for Wikipedia articles. If this is an article about yourself, please read WP:AUTO. -- Scientizzle 21:25, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
I've added the "{{prod}}" template to your user page (User:(*)GEORGE(*)), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy).
Please note that the purpose of a user page is not as a personal homepage or used as a general webhosting service, but as a way for active editors of Wikipedia to introduce themselves to other editors. If you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues here or on my user talk page. You may remove the deletion notice, and the page will not be deleted for the moment, but note that it may still be sent to Miscellany for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.
