[edit] Dean Cameron Reynolds
Notability not asserted; written works seem unpublished, films non-notable. Possible vanity: creator and only contributor is Spoon2319 (contribs) Samsara (talk • contribs) 15:43, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
Dear User Samsara,
This is user Spoon2319 creator of the Dean Cameron Reynolds page. I am in fact Dean Cameron Reynolds as well. I politely request that you reconsider the nimination of deletion of the mentioned page as the reasons you cite for deletion are not entirely accurate. With only a little research it is easy to see that the work has been published, if you google the name Dean Cameron Reynolds you will see that published work appears on the Mosaic Literary E-Zine, as well as the fact that I have been involved in production work at the Barley Films animation company. And if further proof is needed I will happily send you copies of the Watermarks Literary Journal in which his writing AND artwork have been published as well as an article and photograph of myself in the Irish Times. The Watermarks Literary Journal is the printed companion of the Moloch Literary E-Zine which you are welcome to investigate. And finally, under the Wikipedia article guidelines themselves, I will quote:
Self-promotion. You are free to write about yourself or projects you have a strong personal involvement in. However, do remember that the standards for encyclopedic articles apply to such pages just like any other, including the requirement to maintain a neutral point of view, which is difficult when writing about yourself. Creating overly abundant links and references to autobiographical articles is unacceptable. See Wikipedia:Autobiography, Wikipedia:Notability and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.

I am an full time animation Lecturer in Palmerston North, and due to the nature of the networked animation community it is important to have information of this nature accessible to those who you do business with in other parts of the world. I politely request that you reconsider your stance, and perhaps remove the nomination for deletion. I feel that the guidelines of wikipedia are clear, and that with proper research it will be easy to see that the article has relevance.
Yours Sincerely,
Dean Cameron Reynolds
- Delete Nice article, nice animation, but... he's a fledgling college professor who has produced some unheralded animations. Come back when you have a better claim to fame than "my film was seen by someone who won an award". Wikipedia does not host CVs or homepages. --Brianyoumans 20:02, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

As its creator I have attempted to remove the offending article, but its title remains. If you or the other editors know how to remove the title as soon as possible, then you have my authority to do so. Thank you for your time, and apologies for any inconvenience caused.
Sincerely,
DCR
