editPlease do not write an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged - see our guideline Writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedians with articles.) Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you. —KuyaBriBriTalk 15:22, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Patricia Elliott Seitz
editIf 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 Patricia Elliott Seitz, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. —KuyaBriBriTalk 15:23, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

The article Patricia Elliott Seitz has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. ukexpat (talk) 21:23, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

editPlease do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Patricia Elliott Seitz, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. OlYellerTalktome 20:13, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Patricia Elliott Seitz, without resolving the problem that the template refers to may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing Wikipedia. This includes the removal of the AfD template. OlYellerTalktome 14:12, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Patricia. I'd be more than happy to help you with the article. I'm sorry if the templates above aren't clear and/or are intimidating. I keep an eye on a large number of articles and it would be impossible to keep up without the templates.
- As for the article, the first issue would be the maintenance templates. Those are placed so that other editors, who deal with the problems listed, know to come to this article to help improve it. Until they are addressed or until there's a conversation that concludes that the templates don't apply, they must stay. Removing them otherwise will eventually result in a block.
- One major and pressing issue at this point is notability. "Notability" as defined by Wikipedia here, determines what is to be included on WP. Someone else has called the notability of the subject (you) into question in what we call an AfD Discussion (Articles for Deletion). The process takes about 7 days and the goal is to determine the notability of the subject of the article. For you, the applicable notability subsections would be WP:GNG, WP:BIO, and WP:ARTIST. The easiest way to prove notability is to show that the subject has recieved significant coverage (not just a blurb) from independent (organizations you're not involved with), and reliable sources (major news organizations, not blogs, Facebook, MySpace, etc.).
- So right now, that needs to be addressed or the article will be deleted. After that, we can address the other issue that the improvement templates point out. If you have any questions, feel free to ask here, on the talk page of the article, or on my talk page. OlYellerTalktome 14:26, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
