Speedy deletion of Tom edwards (geographer)

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Tom edwards (geographer) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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), coupled with adding a note on the 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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Waterden (talk) 21:39, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

advice

[edit]

The replacement article Tom Edwards, does seem to me to show notability,so I removed a proposed deletion tag on it/. However, it had 3 problems

  1. . It appeared to be copied from some other web site
  2. . It was written in terms of praise and self-advertisment.
  3. . It has no references.

I have rewritten it to deal with #1` and #2,but it now must have at least one good 3rd party independent reliable published sources, print or online (but not blogs or press releases), or it may well be deleted. I'd advise you to add this very quickly, before it gets nominated for regular deletion.DGG (talk) 02:48, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
