  Thank you for your edit to the disambiguation page Too Young. However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation dos and don'ts, you should:

  • Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
  • Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
  • Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
    • Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
  • Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
  • Do not insert external links or references

Thank you. Yashovardhan (talk) 21:44, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Randall Poster

edit
 

The article Randall Poster has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days 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/dated}} 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.

Music supervisors

Our notability standards on Wikipedia are contingent upon a person being the subject of media coverage. A person who works behind the scenes is not exempted from having to get their name into the media just because they're notable "in their field" — because we're not a résumé directory of people who are notable in their field, but an encyclopedia about people who are notable and recognizable to the public. There are lots of jobs one can have where their work might be important in its field, but they simply don't have the depth of public profile needed to actually support a Wikipedia article — and those people simply don't get to have Wikipedia articles.

It's important to understand that because Wikipedia is an article that anybody can edit, we can't guarantee that everybody who edits Wikipedia is always doing so responsibly. Our articles are routinely dirtwashed by "enemies" of the article subject, with stuff like what an evil bastard the person is because he "stiffed" them in a contract negotiation last week or something like that — and without reliable source coverage about him to support the article, we have no way to properly sort out what's true and what isn't. So "no coverage means no article" is not meant to punish those people — it's meant to protect them, because having a Wikipedia article can actually be a double-edged sword with much more negative consequences than you might think.
