Please stop re-creating the article April Rodriguez with identical content. It has been deleted several times under Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion. Wikipedia has standards that biographical articles must adhere to - you might be interested to read these criteria before attempting to recreate the page again. Thanks. --PeruvianLlama(spit) 03:40, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

(Copied from User talk:Peruvianllama): Okay, why are you deleting my articles I write? I dont see why you have deleted them "Several times" if you QUIT deleting them ill QUIT writing them again. Simple as that. I dont see what makes you think you have the right to decide what is "Relevant" as that as purely an opinion. Another thing, there are articles about Myspace.com and that is relevant? I dont get your ideology . The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pentalityism (talk • contribs) . 03:46, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It's nothing personal, however Wikipedia has a certain level of notability that is required before a person warrants having a biographical article. It is, I suppose, a subjective process, however it's one that has significant community support - have a look at the notability requirements yourself if you're interested. Also, even assuming April Rodriguez qualified as being a "notable" person, the article overall was written, I think you will admit, in a very unencyclopaedic tone. Content like that simply doesn't belong on Wikipedia - you're welcome to publish it instead on your own website, or post it on your user page (so long as it remains WP:CIVIL). But although April may be a wonderful person, she simply doesn't qualify for an article on Wikipedia. Again, this is nothing personal; most of us don't! I hope this clears things up a bit. If you have any other questions, feel free to get back to me on my talk page. Cheers. --PeruvianLlama(spit) 04:08, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going to use your talk page instead of responding by email, because this way is more transparent. You said "Wikipedia’s notability person criteria states that it can be used as an autobiography...April wrote this page, and it therefore meats the criteria". I assume you are referring to the line under Alternative Tests which begins with "Autobiography". If so, then you should probably read the article to which "Autobiography" links, which says that autobiographies are in fact discouraged.
You asked what I meant by "encyclopedic tone", and that's a fair question. There is certainly some grey area as to what is appropriate and what is not, and when there is disagreement over how to present factual content, Wikipedians are encouraged to try and reach a consensus within existing Wikipedia policies and guidelines. However, I think that content like this is clearly well outside any grey area that may exist:
"Quotes "AAAHH MOTHERLAND" "Fart-whore" "He told you to check on the kids because I farted in their faces and they died"
So to summarize: April doesn't meet Wikipedia's criteria for notability, the article is also on shaky grounds with regards to autobiographical content, and it was written in a very unencyclopaedic tone. I realize there are alot of guidlines and procedures floating about, and clicking on each of the above links and reading everything they have to say will take quite some time - but I urge you to give it a shot. Hopefully it will give you a better insight into the workings of Wikipedia. Cheers! --PeruvianLlama(spit) 04:49, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
