Notability of Thomas Knobel[edit]

A tag has been placed on Thomas Knobel requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Accounting4Taste:talk 15:10, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. As per the information above, the page was deleted because I assessed the subject as being non-notable according to the notability policy found at the link in this sentence. My suggestion would be that the company itself might be notable, but the material present didn't suggest that the individual himself was notable -- so I would suggest writing an article about the company and including the reference about its position on the top 500 of whatever (my memory of the exact reference escapes me at the moment, but that seemed to be evidence of corporate notability), appending a sentence about the individual as part of that article. If you want the deleted material placed on a "sandbox" page so that you can work on it, I'm happy to do that, just let me know. Accounting4Taste:talk 16:21, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And upon re-reading your note on my talk page, I'd further suggest that if you have reliable sources that verify the assertions about the individual you made there, I'd be prepared to reconsider the notability; I suggest the best way to proceed would be to work with the sandbox page as I've suggested above. I'm going to retrieve the deleted material for you. Accounting4Taste:talk 16:24, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

See User:Cberejik/Sandbox. I still think the way to go would be to write an article about the company, but you'll have to do what you think best. Accounting4Taste:talk 16:25, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
