AfD nomination of Barack Obama: The Novel
[edit]I have nominated Barack Obama: The Novel, an article you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Barack Obama: The Novel. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

[edit]You deleted Barack Obama: The Novel too quickly. I was not given time to even reply. It is not vandalism or a hoax as you alleged. Advanced copies are already for sale on Amazon.com and other outlets. Similar books are included on Wikipedia. You should rewrite the article yourself since you wrongly deleted it. I'm done with it. Time and again there are articles of interest (that I've read, not written) that are deleted too easily. It takes all the fun out of Wikipedia; the whole point is to be able to read about things you can't find in Britannica. Lewisfan (talk) 15:15, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
- Why do you keep telling me about it? As I said, you're talking to the wrong person. I did not delete the article (and don't have the ability to do so or do anything about it). Talk to the admin that deleted it. Also, there is a process for deletion review that you can follow if you feel the deletion was not justified. I would suggest you start there. --Loonymonkey (talk) 17:32, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
