[edit] Speedy deletion of J.M. Hayes

A tag has been placed on J.M. Hayes requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:43, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

this article, after considerable discussion, was improved and kept. See my user talk page. But some of the external links did not seem understandable to me. You might want to explain on the article's talk page. For any future editing you may do, please read our Business FAQ DGG (talk) 19:05, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
P{lease do not destroy the good edits of Tony and others, that have shown the author to be actually notable. You seem to have restored it to its former much less supportable condition, and I do not know why. Either leave it alone, or add some additional sources. DGG (talk) 04:00, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
