[edit] Notability of Jacqueline A Soule
A tag has been placed on Jacqueline A Soule requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Whispering 12:09, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- Did you read the policies linked to up above? They explain in detail what an article has to have in order to be posted on Wikipedia. Whispering 13:12, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Dennis Swartzell
The article Dennis Swartzell has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.
Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:32, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Vermont
Thank you for your contributions to the article, Vermont. Some of these have been deleted due to lack of reference. Please see WP:FOOT, and WP:OR. Student7 (talk) 22:33, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
- Please use an article name when replying. I figured out from the context that it was "Vermont!" I edit a lot of stuff.
- Quakers would be interesting BUT were never very numerous anywhere except Pennsylvania. That might present a problem for notability in the article. But if you can find where they were responsible for a LOT of maple lanes or something, that might be interesting. Again, the problem is quantity of people leading to quantity of focused effort.
- We can't assume that census numbers contain a particular group without some scholarly (unbiased) reference which presents that information. BTW I don't own the article! There are other editors! :)Student7 (talk) 12:27, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] List of people from Vermont
Thanks again for your contributions. Some of these have been modified or deleted. Please fill in the edit summary at the bottom of the edit page so that other editors can try to understand what it is you are trying to accomplish. Here, too, we need footnotes to independently document that the person lived or lives in Vermont. I realize that this was poorly enforced in the past but we need it for new entries. Simple footnotes can be constructed by using (can't do this live - the system will convert it!) left caret-ref-right caret-webpage-left caret-forward slash-ref-right caret. This will give your entry the simplest footnote and can be audited by other editors for veracity. Thanks. Student7 (talk) 22:50, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for experimenting with List of people from Vermont. Your test worked, and it has been reverted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you may want to do. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.21:45, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
