Speedy deletion nomination of Torkwase Dyson

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Torkwase Dyson 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 real person or group of people, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

A page you started (Alexandra Bell) has been reviewed!

edit

Thanks for creating Alexandra Bell, Drxq5!

Wikipedia editor Animalparty just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

It's important to write articles that read like summaries, not resumes, artist's statements, or promotional materials. When writing about art, avoid subjective, imprecise aesthetics like "investigates the complexities of narrative, racial and gender bias in media" per WP:SUBJECTIVE and WP:PEACOCK. Cheers.

To reply, leave a comment on Animalparty's talk page.
