Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Proposed deletion of Richard Ebeling


The article Richard Ebeling has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Promotional biography, heavily edited by the subject (current version is cut-down from the full promotional version). Grandiose claims of noteworthiness, but 100% of the sources are primary. I looked through the history for old versions with better sourcing, and there are no better sources there. WP:BEFORE shows zero coverage about Ebeling in independent non-WP:FRINGE third-party WP:RSes that I could find; there's lots of articles by Ebeling, especially in WP:FRINGE economic sources, but nothing like the sort of coverage of Ebeling that we'd normally require for a WP:BLP to exist at all. I can't see how he passes WP:NPROF or WP:GNG. I'd be happy to be shown wrong, but it would have to be shown, with clear independent non-fringe RS biographical coverage."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
