[edit] Re:Outso
A tag has been placed on Outso, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems 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 Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out 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. Inner Earth 12:31, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] re Au Chi Ho
If you're yanking my chain Ima be hella annoyed sport. I'm busy. Please read WP:BIO and get back to me if you have a genuine beef. Herostratus 03:05, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Ah, it's an encyclopedia, not a yearbook. We have people like Einstein and Beethoven and Sun Yat-Sen and so forth. Not students. You may take your case to deletion review at WP:DRV, although if you do the only affect will be to further annoy your fellow Wikipedians. Why not use some of your excess energy and intelligence toward improving the Wikipedia? It's fun. Herostratus 03:17, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Ar. Don't argue with my deaf ears then. My hands are tied by policy. Take it to WP:DRV. After you've read WP:BIO... Herostratus 04:20, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Go to WP:DRV for a deletion review. This will provide you and the Wikipedia community a full chance to review my actions and restore the article if I am judged to have acted wrongly or if it would enhance the mission of the encyclopedia to restore the article. If the community believes that scholars engaged in research would be aided by the existence of the article, it may be restored. Herostratus 13:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
