The article Josh Jauncey has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has 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 seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Wgolf (talk) 16:50, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

Request for undeletion of the article Josh Jauncey
editHi,
I just got back from France after creating my brother Josh Jauncey's wikipedia page, and now it has been deleted. Half the kickboxers he has beat have pages, and he is ranked #4 in the world on the Glory website (which is still the biggest kickboxing Organization in the world at this time. He is also the WKL north american champion and many more,
Is it possible to to reverse this deletion so it can be updated with all his new info? if not what more do i need to reference to make it work? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scrumply (talk • contribs) 18:36, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
- Hi,
- Firstly you should read Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy and in particular the Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#You and your circle section, which explains you should not write about articles where you have a personal connection with the subject of the article, such as a family member.
- As such I would first say that per what you say above that you should not be writing an article about Josh Jauncey. Secondly the article was deleted per the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Josh Jauncey where the consensus was that the article did not meet wikipedia's notability guideline for this area - WP:KICKGUIDE and did not receive significant coverage in reliable secondary sources. If someone without a conflict of interest wanted to write an article again about Josh Jauncey they would need to bring forward new evidence to demonstrate the notability guidelines are met.
