Proposed deletion of Al Spinks


The article Al Spinks has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Only claim of notabily is being named Texan of the Year, and I can find no reliable sources to support that.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Singularity42 (talk) 15:59, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Autobiographies
Please refrain from writing autobiographical articles, as you did at Al Spinks. Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged; if you create such an article, it may be deleted. All edits to articles must conform to our policies on no original research, neutral point of view, and avoid conflicts of interest. Please remember that Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia, not a personal webspace provider. If your achievements are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you. Singularity42 (talk) 15:59, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
