Excellent first article! Thanks, Top Jim (talk) 19:00, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of William H. Brackney

A tag has been placed on William H. Brackney 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} 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 hangon 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Apologies

Tyler,

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. You wrote a good first article, and rather than praise, you has to suffer thru two delete proposals. You wrote a good article and everyone agrees that it belongs here at Wikipedia. I apologize for the poor treatment you recieved and hope you will continue to contribute.

Don't worry about it - I was actually really impressed at how thorough the Wikipedia community was, it shows the attention that is paid to details and how important proper citation is. I was also impressed for you guys finding an online source of Brackney's CV, so you folks totally rock, it's fantastic. Tylerbennicke (talk) 19:31, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
