Speedy deletion nomination of Dave Lapa

[edit]

Hello Efratsolomon,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Dave Lapa for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Vanjagenije (talk) 23:34, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The article Dave Lapa has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. buffbills7701 23:46, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dave Lapa

[edit]

Please note that Category:Biography is not for biographical articles about people; it's for articles about the literary genre of biography. The appropriate categories for Dave Lapa are ones which are descriptions of what he is, not of what the article is. Bearcat (talk) 18:48, 1 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article Dave Lapa has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable diamond merchant. No independent sigcov provided to establish 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.
