Speedy deletion nomination of Anna Johnston MacManus
A tag has been placed on Anna Johnston MacManus, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Moreover, please add more verifiable sources, not only 3rd party sources. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Rorshacma (talk) 17:39, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Hello, Ajm18, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Anna Johnston MacManus, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Your article
I have moved your article into your user space at User:Ajm18/Anna Johnston MacManus where you can work on it, and move it into the main encyclopedia when it is ready. Although you had marked it as work in progress, it would have confused any reader who happened on it, as it seemed to be mostly about Oscar Wilde.

The links in the Welcome message above will tell you more about contributing: WP:Your first article is a useful introduction. Note in particular that Wikipedia is selective about article subjects: the criterion is called notability, and is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. The test is, have people unconnected with the subject found it important and significant enough to write substantial comment about? There is more detail in WP:Notability (people).

If you are Anna Johnston MacManus, I must warn you that writing articles about oneself in Wikipedia is strongly discouraged, for reasons explained at Autobiography. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 18:06, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
