Joe Field
A tag has been placed on Comicspro requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check 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. Kannie | talk 22:49, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
Free Comic Book Day
editHi! Do you happen to be Joe Field of Flying Colors Comics? I know it's been more than a decade since you edited from this account, but just in case you find your way back to the Wikipedia community I wanted to say how much I appreciate having a "primary source" checking on us.
I was doing a bit of work on Free Comic Book Day and noticed that you edited that article way-back-when. Under Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy you would be considered a "connected contributor" and it's generally frowned-upon to edit an article when you have a connection to the subject. I think your help would be invaluable, though, but to keep things above-board the best thing is to either (1) suggest changes to the article on its talk page, or (2) request someone to check the edits that you make to the article for verification and neutrality.
I hope that you drop by again, and that FCBD finds a way to carry on after its hiatus. – Reidgreg (talk) 17:21, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
