[edit] Brian D. Holland

Hello,

I saw you just created an article with the same name as your user name. Assuming that you are the Brian Holland described in the article, I should let you know that WP:AUTO autobiographical editing of Wikipedia and other potential conflicts of interest are generally discouraged due to concerns over verifiability and neutrality. See WP:AUTO and WP:COI for more information. -David Schaich Talk/Cont 20:30, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

I took the liberty of copying the article to your user page, since it looks like it may be deleted soon (see below). This may have been what you intended to do in the first place. I hope you don't mind my presumption in editing your user page. -David Schaich Talk/Cont 20:37, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Brian D. Holland, 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 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. John Reaves 20:35, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
