Emanuel Pastreich

Emanuel Pastreich serves as advisor to the governor of Chungnam Province in South Korea and an associate professor at the SolBridge International School of Business at Woosong University in Daejeon. He has written on international relations and globalization, and been deeply involved in the debate on policy in Asia and the United States.

Pastreich taught Japanese literature at the University of Illinois from 1997 to 2004, focusing on the literary and intellectual history of Japan, Korea and China. He also was involved in efforts to encouraged better relations between the countries of East Asia.

From 2005-2007 Pastreich served as an advisor to the minister for public affairs at the Korean Embassy in Washington D.C. while teaching at George Washington University. The lecture series "KORUS House" that he organized at that time allowed for a frank discussion of important issues in East Asia by figures rarely allowed to enter into the Washington debate.

Pastreich's best known article is "Is China the Nemesis in a New Cold War?" published by the Nautilus Institute in March, 2006. In this argument, Pastreich compares the relationship of the United States with China to that of Great Britain and the United States in the 20th century.

Notability of Eric marler

The article Eric marler has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it did 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 indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. FreplySpang 13:26, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Daejeon Green Growth Forum, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. OliverTwisted (talk) 11:15, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Epastreich! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 709 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Proposed deletion of Woody Jun

The article Woody Jun has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia: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 ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Sources

Can you please start using sources? You're an academic, so you should know how to cite sources. Creating unsourced articles about subjects you're connected to is not good practice, it looks like promotional activity. Fences&Windows 19:49, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Institute of Asian Business

A tag has been placed on Institute of Asian Business 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 an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles 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 organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. mark nutley (talk) 13:29, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Eco currency

The article Eco currency has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This does not appear to be notable as the only reference I can find is the original article. I am unable to find any reliable sources to establish notability for the concept.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
