Hi there! I have concerns that the article you created on Ronald Simien may not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for creatives. The references you have used so far do not meet Wikipedia's requirements for biographies to be supported by reliable third-party sources as they are mainly from self-published sources. There is a danger that unless you can find some evidence that this subject meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines, the article may be proposed for deletion. If you have any questions, just post a comment below this one and I will reply.--CharlieDelta (talk) 22:13, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
The article Ronald Simien has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
I can find no evidence that this person exists or has published anything. The two "refs" that were in the article clearly never provided support for any content (one was to homestead.com and the other to a list of parties on krushmore.com). No listing of this person in worldcat.org, nothing returned for Google Scholar or Google Books or JStor. The one external link goes to a vanity-published book with the author listed as "A simple man". I can't find his other supposed books. I suspect he's not a poet in the anthologies that are listed, but even if he is, no significant coverage and no evidence of notability.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Schazjmd (talk) 01:10, 3 August 2019 (UTC)
