  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added such as to the page Employee engagement do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. tedder (talk) 15:59, 27 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Aileen Thompson

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 Aileen Thompson 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. — Timneu22 · talk 15:25, 20 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thank you.

 

The article Chris Wermann has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did 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 indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 16:12, 20 December 2010 (UTC)Reply


Today, Ive had a number of biographical articles deleted, including this one. This was a short, 4 line, non-promotional biography of the head of corporate affairs for one of the largest food companies in the world, who coincidenally announced today that he was standing down to work for the UK's biggest out of town retail store (a story which came through on the wires, and seemedx to run everywhere)

Now, to repeat, I've not written biographical articles for wikipedia before, but I did my homework, and the fact that this person was in charge of comms for such a large body, was cited and referenced in a four page feature in the leading magazine for his profession, and was, ultimately, at the top of his game in his field seemed to make him notable, which seems to be what's needed.

I put about 8 biographies up today. All people who were at the top of their game. People who were, for instance, running comms for FTSE100 firms, or the CEO for large international trade bodies. The were all people who have been quoted extensively, and featured in big interviews in trade titles. Please give me guidance here. Because if I've got it wrong, then I wont do any more biographies. But I don't think I can have done. It seems that I ticked all the boxes I needed to Regards Mathir MathirJayanadine (talk) 01:03, 21 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, as doing so is not in accordance with our policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Wikipedia:Your first article; you might also consider using the Article Wizard. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Hello. I have noticed that you've now created two articles that are primarily resumes of the subjects they intend to cover. This is not the purpose of Wikipedia. Biographical articles should be included only when the subject is notable. See WP:BIO for more information. In the meantime, please do not create articles about people if there's nothing more to say about them than "they work at XYZ company"; this does not make them notable enough to exist as the topic of a Wikipedia article.Timneu22 · talk 16:37, 20 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

OK, I think I've got the picture. Writing that Jane heads the CIPR isn't enough, but possibly writing that Frances Ingham who heads the PRCA is appealing against the NLA vs Meltwater & PRCA ruling, and the legal repercussions of that, would be. In future I will submit any biographical entries for review through the article wizard before finally posting. Thanks. MathirJayanadine (talk) 08:31, 21 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
I'm actually not quite sure you've got it. Your Frances Ingham description above still doesn't appear to be notable. Biographical articles must include reliable, third-party sources. If a topic has been covered in newspapers or reputable online sites, then it is likely the person is notable. Otherwise, they are not. — Timneu22 · talk 10:41, 21 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

But all the profiles we posted were precied versions of four page profiles that had appeared in Communicate magazine, which is the leading monthly magazine for the UK's corporate communications community, winner of Media Brand of the Year. Is that not reputable enough? MathirJayanadine (talk) 12:32, 21 December 2010 (UTC) And they were credited as having been profiled there.MathirJayanadine (talk) 12:42, 21 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

  This is your last warning; the next time you create an inappropriate page, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. ''You have already been warned. Please do not create another similar article again. Timneu22 · talk 18:22, 20 December 2010 (UTC) Reply

woah Timneu22 that's a bit speedy with the heavy "you have already been warned" stuff. Yes, but I've only been warned today. And as soon as I was warned, I stopped - to research what Ive done wrong. And I still dont agree.

I've contributed a fair bit to Wikipedia in the past, but today was the first time that I have contributed any biographical articles. This article (one of a number you've put up for deletion, was a short, 4 line, non-promotional biography of the chief executive of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations, outside of the US, probably the largest trade organisation of PR practitioners. It is included in Wikipedia. Jane was profiled in Communicate magazine, a magazine I occassionally write for. It is the UK's leading magazine for corporate communications.

Now, I;ve not written biographical articles for wikipedia before, but I did my homework, and the fact that this person was in charge of such an august body, was cited and referenced in a four page feature in the leading magazine for her profession, and was, ultimately, at the top of her game in her field seemed to make her notable.

I put about 8 biographies today. All people who were at the top of the game. People who were, for instance, running comms for FTSE100 firms, or like Jane, running massive trade bodies. All people who have been quoted extensively, and featured in big interviews in trade titles. Please give me guidance here. Because if I've got it wrong, then I wont do any more biographies. But I don't think I can have done. It seems that I ticked all the boxes I needed to. MathirJayanadine (talk) 01:53, 21 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
