Talk:Carl Ashby

Notability of Carl Ashby
A tag has been placed on Carl Ashby 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  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. I don't understand the reasons on your hangon. You have to explain it here! --Ŧħę௹ɛя㎥ 17:49, 21 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Ashby taught at NYU for 25 years and has pieces in museums across the country. What kind of notability are you looking for?  --Rph3742 (talk) 18:16, 21 July 2008


 * WP:GNG and WP:BIO could be good readings for you. I don't say that it should not be an article, I just want to make sure the guidelines are followed. --Ŧħę௹ɛя㎥ 19:39, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
