Speedy deletion of David D Stanton

A tag has been placed on David D Stanton 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 notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance 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. Closedmouth (talk) 06:11, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Hello there, I'm afraid the article you drafted was about someone who seems not to meet the Wikipedia criteria for notability. It's not that I doubt he did the things you say: just that these are not notable enough to warrant a biographical page. If his achievements ARE notable, then a newspaper or TV station will have published/broadcast an article or programme about him. You need to find such evidence and place it in the article, having made sure that the criteria noted above have been met. I'm afraid I'm also deleting your page on the BBS: not everything that has ever appeared on the www is notable: the criteria for such things are here. If you find sources that can verify the notability of your topics, please contact me and I'll help you restore or redraft the articles. Kim Dent-Brown ^(Talk) 12:42, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
