OK
editI'll try.
A tag has been placed on Ivan Sokolov musician, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out 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. MER-C 06:31, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
Ivan Sokolov article shouldn't be deleted
editThis is real person who is important in today's promotion of new classical music. There are plenty of web-based citations and references. Anatoly larkin 06:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- If you want people to read this, add it to the article's talk page, not your own. P4k 06:46, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- I have moved it from speedy to AfD: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ivan Sokolov musician. Please argue your case there (or even better by improving the article) Alex Bakharev 12:28, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

References
editHi Anatoly!
I saw you recently created the Charles Meyer article, which contained a little error on the reference list. If you want to create a list of references, you should use {{reflist}} instead of <References/> to generate the list you wanted. I already corrected it, so no need to worry.
Happy editing to you, and with kind regards, Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 15:35, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
