[edit] Speedy deletion of Kalupahana

A tag has been placed on Kalupahana 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 band, 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 musical topics.

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. -- Levine2112 ^discuss 00:04, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hi, re-naming Kalupahana, etc.

Hi, are you still around? Per Wikipedia's general policies/guidelines on how we should name articles about people -- Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(biographies) --, we'll probably be re-naming Kalupahana to David J. Kalupahana. This is not in any way a criticism or attack, and Kalupahana will still automatically re-direct to the article under the new title.
Also, if think that you might be working on Buddhism-related articles and you want to stay in touch with what others are doing, you can join WikiProject Buddhism.
Have a good one. -- Writtenonsand (talk) 14:32, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
