I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Jacques Dallaire, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Deletion and restoration

[edit]

First, please soften your indignant tone. It is not productive in eliciting any kind of reasonable response. Second, I did not delete this article; User:Wknight94 conducted the deletion. Third, the wording of the damned template that I used to inform you that the article was on death row implies that I nominated it for deletion, not that I deleted it myself. In point of fact, it was User:UnitedStatesian who nominated the article for deletion with the reasoning "Self-promotional article that does not establish the subject's notability". So, you have shot the messenger. However, I have a whole closet full of bullet-proof vests and I don't hold a grudge. Therefore, I'm going to re-instate the article and put it on the WP:AFD circuit for reconsideration, taking your concerns as a "de-prodding" or "contesting the PROD" request. Because I think that a PROD should be contestable posthumously, I place notifications of ongoing deletion actions on personal talk pages knowing that in minutes to hours an article might be deleted; in actuality, when the article is nominated for deletion, some manner of notification should be done - to the sole or major editor contributing to an article and/or the one or several WikiProjects under which scope the article falls. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 22:06, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
