[edit] Christopher A. Herring

Happy to edit as appropriate, but please tell me how.

Start here:

  • Wikipedia:Autobiography - The problem with autobiographies
  • Wikipedia:Vanity guidelines - Guidelines intended to assist determining exactly what is and what is not to be considered vanity information within Wikipedia, which is not suitable copy material for Wikipedia article pages
  • Wikipedia:Notability
  • Wikipedia:Notability (people) - Wikipedia includes biographies of important historical figures and people involved in current events. Even though wiki is not paper, there are some criteria which may be considered for inclusion.
  • Wikipedia:Verifiability - The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth. This means that we only publish material that is verifiable with reference to reliable, published sources.

...Calton was rude, calling me "some mid-level publishing exec."

And I thought you worked in the New York publishing industry. If this is your idea of rude, you must not get out of the office much. --Calton | Talk 02:16, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the nomination (also see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on why the topic of the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome: participate in the discussion by editing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Christopher A.

Herring during the discussion, but do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top of the article), this will not end the deletion debate. --Slgrandson 22:15, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
