[edit] Speedy deletion of Douglas Carver (chaplain)

A tag has been placed on Douglas Carver (chaplain) 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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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.

[edit] Douglas Carver (chaplain)

Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. The reason that this article was deleted was because it did not meet the standard of notability, which is used here to determine whether a subject is of encyclopedic importance. While Carver may well be a good person, the article did not assert how he met this standard (and did not appear to have the potential to in the near future).

Please take a look at the notability page for more details, or drop by my talk page if you need more help. You may also find Wikipedia:Introduction helpful. Thanks. Tijuana Brass (talk) 16:28, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Just goes to show how quickly edits can happen here - when I originally viewed the article, it didn't include the most recent detail of his position as major general and chief of chaplains, both of which help assert notability. Someone else pointed that out on my talk page, so I've undeleted the page. Sorry for the hassle. Let me know if you need any help. Tijuana Brass (talk) 16:38, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Abigail McCarthy

A tag has been placed on Abigail McCarthy requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia 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. Orange Mike | Talk 17:56, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I have made the changes and, since the protecting admin was fine with it, I have also unprotected the page. Cheers, CP 17:57, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Henry Reilly (Northern Irish politician)

I have nominated Henry Reilly (Northern Irish politician), an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Henry Reilly (Northern Irish politician). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
