Speedy deletion nomination of Mallory Pagel


A tag has been placed on Mallory Pagel 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 person or group of people, 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.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can 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 a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Deflagro (talk) 20:57, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Mallory Pagel
Hello 123thinkfast,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Mallory Pagel for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, DanielRigal (talk) 21:30, 26 November 2012 (UTC)


 * I have deleted it, despite what you wrote on the talk page, so that you should not waste time unnecessarily. Wikipedia is not a social-networking site like Myspace or Facebook for people to write about themselves or their friends and family. It is a quite different sort of place, a project to build an encyclopedia, so it is selective about subjects for articles - see WP:Notability and WP:Notability (people). There is good advice in WP:Your first article - check out particularly the section "Things to avoid". Regards, JohnCD (talk) 23:03, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
