[edit] Darek Sokol

The subject is a professional commercial artist and interior decorator, but not of notability to merit an article. There are 384 Google hits, which bring up advertising sites Tyrenius 13:15, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom and WP:BIO. Feels like a vanity page. -- Gogo Dodo 21:40, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete: Per nom. Doesn't look too promising. —Wknight94 (talk) 22:26, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

This article is not about Darek Sokol's present activity. It rather showes (or suppose to show) his about 10 years input in restoration and conservation of historic places of significant value while back in Poland. I'm a first time user of Wikipedia (just registered 2 days ago) and regardless what other admins call me ("malicious vandal" etc.) I would like to stay a member at Wikipedia and learn how to write a good articles. I would expect some help though, not only a criticism from experienced members as you are. I was going to work on the article and enrich it with some photographs and facts. I may delete the last lines about Sokol's present activity in the USA if it may prevent the article from deletion. Also I want to mention that this person is not only a restorator and artist but also quite influential person in some Christian circles. Besides his artistic achievements he also graduated from the Evangelical School of Theology in Wroclaw [1] , Poland, where he proved to be a good leader and youth mentor.

(I noticed that many AOL users have the same problem: shared IP problems, accusations of vandalizing Wikipedia, etc.) I'd like you to help me with that, rather than calling me names. I hope all that I wrote here will find some understanding. --Darpics

• • ^{Comment: I left the standard welcome message on your talk page. If you take a look through some of the links there and also take a look at WP:N, you'll see why articles sometimes get deleted. And try not to panic over vandalism claims - like you said, AOL users are very hard to identify here so they often get mistaken for vandals. Since you set up a specific user ID, hopefully that will happen less often. Sorry for your awkward introduction here! —Wknight94 (talk) 13:04, 11 July 2006 (UTC)}
• ^{Delete per nom, and per Gogo Dodo. I fail to see anyone here calling anyone names. You may want to read the WP policies and guidelines regarding WP:BIO and WP:NOT for assistance. Tychocat 10:18, 11 July 2006 (UTC)}
