Not quite ready

In my opinion, the article (here) is not quite ready to move into article space. I'll explain why, and remove the request to move this article into article space. Other editors may feel differently, so if you disagree with my reasons, feel free to replace the move request template, and someone else may move it for you.

One of the important requirements of an article in Wikipedia is that it demonstrate the Notability of the topic. (While this is a guideline, not an absolute requirement and exceptions can occur, they are rare.) I don't feel this article has demonstrated the notability of the topic. This can be accomplished by adding references to reliable sources which support the notability of the topic. You have asserted his notability, but it needs to be supported by references to reliable sources.

You appear to be misunderstanding the use of references. Please see Referencing for beginners

You used the Article Wizard to start your article, which is a good thing. However, the template provided contains a section for External Links, and includes a dummy link, which doesn't go anywhere. You should either identify valid External links and add them, while removing the Example, or remove the whole section.--SPhilbrickT 14:31, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ray Villafane

A tag has been placed on Ray Villafane, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia for multiple reasons. Please see the page to see the reasons. If the page has since been deleted, you can ask me the reasons by leaving a message on my user talk page.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so 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 page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. Filing Flunky (talk) 13:26, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
