User talk:Artdaking

No non-notables, please
I have placed a tag on the article John stavola, 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 John stavola is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:John stavola. 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. -- Ifnord 15:02, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Why the deletion
The person you have written about in the article John stavola is unfortunately not sufficiently well-known to merit an article of their own, and that is why the article was deleted. The Wikipedia community welcomes newcomers, and encourages them to become Wikipedians. By starting an account or logging in, each user is entitled to a user page in which they can describe themselves, and the deleted article's content may be incorporated into that page. However, to merit inclusion in the encyclopedia proper, a subject must be notable. We encourage you to write or improve articles on notable subjects.
