[edit] Speedy deletion of Paula Smith

A tag has been placed on Paula Smith 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 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance 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.

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 (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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

[edit] Joyce Meyer / Paula White / T. D. Jakes

I wanted to involve a third party in a possible edit war over a few articles. The articles are Paula White, Joyce Meyer, and T. D. Jakes, which was recently deleted and had to be started over for copyright violation. User Cats77 repeatedly inserts criticism about education. They use sources that do not confirm the criticism. An Administrator came by one article and reverted my revert due to a source being cited for the criticism, but I don’t think they checked the source! For Joyce Meyers he uses Joyce Meyer’s own website which, of course, doesn’t reference any criticism of herself.

According to wiki policy, “controversial material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately”. I posted a note on Cats77 discussion page but they didn’t respond. They just keep re-inserting their edit.

Would you double check this to confirm I am not in the wrong in how I am interpreting wiki policy? Thank you. Bwalker5435 (talk) 00:42, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] External links

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Messianic Judaism. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 15:44, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
