[edit] re: Susan Colebank

Hi there! The article you wrote on Susan Colebank has been deleted because as an author, she doesn't yet meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria for authors. For an author, writing many books or a single book that has become a best seller or won a major award would fulfill this requirement. Susan Colebank has only written a single novel, and right now that means she isn't eligible for inclusion, that doesn't mean she might not be in the future.

I hope this doesn't turn you off to contributing to Wikipedia, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to leave me another message. Mister Senseless™ (Speak - Contributions) 20:51, 14 March 2008 (UTC)


Please dont delete it i am young. But I will feel bad if you delete it. It seems like u r out to get me. I know she is not famouse yet. But I have met her. It makes me sad that u want to delete it. I understand she is not a best selling novelist. I am sorry. So you are saying I spent an hour for nothing. Answer me please.


It is in librarys so it will meet standards right?

I'm not out to get you, I think its great that you're in school and contributing to Wikipedia. To answer your questions, the inclusion criteria for performers is not the same as that for authors. It doesn't matter whether her novel is in libraries or not, unless she won some type of award for Black Tuesday, or it was on a best seller list, such as the New York Times, it doesn't meet the inclusion criteria yet.

The other thing is that you took the article text directly off of her official website. That is a copyright violation, and could get Wikipedia into trouble. Mister Senseless™ (Speak - Contributions) 21:12, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
