Speedy deletion of Alexander Saroukhan
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/48px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Alexander Saroukhan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
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.

Hi Artinavedissian - I saw the note you left at Talk:Alexander Saroukhan and, from what you say, he does sound like an appropriate subject for a Wikipedia article (I haven't done any research of my own; I'm just going by what you said). To clarify, the article wasn't deleted because he was deemed to be unsuitable for Wikipedia, but because the article consisted only of his name, year of birth, and year of death. I would strongly encourage you to write a proper article about this man there, and, if he's as notable as you say, it should be kept. Please let me know if I can help you with anything.

- Hi Steve Smith:
- I read your note. I saw on "info.com" several references about Alexander Saroukhan which are correct. I know that he was employed by the "El-Akhbar" daily Arabic newspaper in the '40's and 50's contributing by his caricature every day on a certain corner of that newspaper. I am a US citizen living in Los Angeles since 2000. Alexander Saroukhan's origin is Armenian. He was born in Batum, Georgia. You may find his name in the list of "Famous Armenians of Egypt". His published books "La Guerre" in French is all about World War II where you can see the caricatures of Churchil, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, and many other leaders. I believe these books (Caricatures with narrations) must be available from well known libraries.
- Sincerely,
- Artin Avedissian
- I'd say go ahead an write the article, then, making sure that it's well-sourced. Sarcasticidealist (talk) 08:13, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
Hi Steve Smith It is well-sourced. Please make your research by verifying the info on Alexander Saroukhan at "Info.com" and then please restore my requested entry on that List of Caricaturists! I think this entry is essential to make it more accurate! Thanks.Artinavedissian (talk) 14:07, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
