User talk:*Lauren*

I have placed a tag on the article Lauren Olsen, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. I did this because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Lauren Olsen is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Lauren Olsen. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. More specifically, you yourself are not really encyclopedic, and it is generally poor form to write about yourself. -- Imban 08:32, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
