A tag has been placed on Tom Pearson, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, 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 Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the 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. Eiyuu Kou 22:55, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Ulmfull.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Ulmfull.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. fuzzy510 17:54, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Aggie Bonfire

Hi Viking97. I've requested input from the Texas A&M Wikiproject as to whether we should include the list of names of those who died in the 1999 Bonfire collapse or not. There is a request for comment at the Aggie Bonfire talk page. Like all Aggies, I mourn those who died in the collapse, but I believe we should follow the example of wikipedia articles on similar tragedies and not include the names of the dead. Please feel free to leave your counterargument on the talk page, and we'll see if we gain a consensus one way or the other from the members of the project. Karanacs 17:26, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

There are rules on Wikipedia of which I don't agree with. One of them is WP:NOT#MEMORIAL, which forbids mentioning the fallen unless they meet the notability criteria. Karanacs bought up that the survivors of the WTC bombing were not listed, which is an example of how rules should apply. I hope you understand; removing the list of victims does not reflect the opinions of editors. BlueAg09 (Talk) 22:18, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Butler Elementary School (Arlington, Texas)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Butler Elementary School (Arlington, Texas), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 15:22, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
