Speedy deletion nomination of Aml Youssef "Joe" Tadros

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on Aml Youssef "Joe" Tadros requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about it should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you can assert the notability of the subject, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

See the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. JohnHWiki talk - 11:43, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You wrote on the article talk page that it should not be deleted because he is running for election in 2016. Wikipedia is not for election announcements: there is a special rule at WP:POLITICIAN that being an unelected candidate for office does not count towards the notability required for a Wikipedia article. Please note also that this is a serious encyclopedia, and the "jokey" tone of your article is not appropriate. See WP:Your first article, WP:Notability (people) and the policy on WP:Biographies of living persons for more advice. JohnCD (talk) 15:16, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
