Proposed deletion of Marcel Provost
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/74/Ambox_warning_yellow.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_yellow.svg.png)
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Marcel Provost, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- No indication of Notability. Likely COI article.
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Marcel Provost
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Marcel Provost 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 band or musician, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ttonyb1 (talk) 16:06, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
A deleted article / page

I simply cannot find anything.. it all vanished.
Thank you in advance for your time in helping me find my content and restoring or instructions on how to restore the information. MP Article unsined by WowCestMoiSurWiki (Talk)
- That was sure a while back - the article you mention (Marcel Provost) was origionally deleted on 22 June 2009, on the basis of WP:A7. I origionally tagged it with a PROD (A proposed deletion), but it seems that another editor upped that to a CSD A& (Criteria for speedy deletion, criteria A7). Now, i doubt that the number / letter combinations mean anything to you, so let me elaborate. Under the criteria of speedy deletion there are several reasons as to why an article may be deleted speedily - that is, without community discussion. The page itself was deleted under A7, which means that the article gave no indication of notability. This means that the article didn't explain why the subject of the article is notable enough to be contained in an encyclopedia.
- Though it is quite long ago, you can request the deletion on WP:DELREV, but be aware that undeletions are only done if there had been an error. Alternatively, you could ask for the page to be userfied, in which case it can be restored to your user page so you can work to make it comply to Wikipedia guidelines such as WP:N, WP:V and WP:NPOV (If you are interested in this, i can do this for you). I do advice though, that it is wise to read this page first. It provides tips on creating article's, and the type of content that is accepted into Wikipedia. I warn in advance that not all subject are notable enough to warrant inclusion, so be critical and objective when determining if the subject is notable. You can ask at the helpdesk for advice, or you can submit the article to WP:AFC for review. The latter may be advisable at first, since the article will receive improvement tips then. On the other hand article's in the main space are always subject to removal if they do not comply, so AFC may be a bit of a safe-haven option.
- Either way, good luck with it! Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 17:59, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
