Dan W.Griffin
[edit]Thanks for your message. I noticed your addition to List of people from Bath of a link to Dan W.Griffin and No stranger to the P45 neither of which have articles and may not meet the WP:notability guidelines. We generally only include people in "notable people" sections or lists if they already have a wikipedia article or are supported by suitable reliable sources. Could you either add suitable citations or start the article about this author. I noticed from your contributions record User:Oogachaka42/Nostrangertothep45.com which appears to just promote the web site at present.— Rod talk 10:39, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Dan W.Griffin
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Dan W.Griffin 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 a person or group of people, 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.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
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 hang-on 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Jimmy Pitt talk 12:08, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
