Speedy deletion nomination of Michael oshry

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 Michael oshry 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 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 "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. Matty.007 19:18, 31 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Notes

edit

First, autobiography is not forbidden, but it is definitely not recommended. Please see WP:AUTOBIO and WP:COI about conflict of interest (editing about you and yours). Second, any biography has to pass WP:BIO, and I'm afraid yours didn't seem to. Being a candidate doesn't confer notability, by the way, even at Senate level. If you do think you can pass BIO, read WP:RS about the reliable independent sources need to prove the notability. Please don't think I'm putting you down. The vast majority of the world's population won't get articles, and the same applies to businesses and organisations. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, and we can't record everybody and everything.
