Speedy deletion of Joseph C. Sharp
editA tag has been placed on Joseph C. Sharp requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. TN‑X-Man 16:20, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
Status-- As reviewing administrator, I think the article indicates notability, so I declined to delete it. However, though it might pass regular deletion, more needs to be said--and sourced. What positions exactly did he hold, and when? What is the exact current position? What are his major publications? When werethe degrees? And we need 3rd party independent reliable published sources, print or online (but not blogs or press releases)--there should be something from the part of the career at Ames. I'd advise you to add this very quickly, before it gets nominated for regular deletion.DGG (talk) 17:06, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to John B.

If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. SheepNotGoats (Talk) 19:19, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
The recent edit you made to John B. Alexander constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to vandalize pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you. --Sidonuke (talk :: contribs) 19:40, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
