City youth players
Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. Always nice to see another Blue editing. I notice you've created a couple of articles about players from the 2006 youth cup final team. Unfortunately, whether or not prominent youth team players are notable enough to have their own article is something of a grey area - sometimes they get nominated for deletion, in fact there's a deletion nomination going on right now for some Inter youth players. Its not going to be a problem for Danny Sturridge, but do not be disheartened if a couple of the others get nominated for deletion at some point, as there's no guarantee they will make it at professional level. On a more positive note, you may find WikiProject Football of interest, and there's a whole slew of definitely notable City players requiring articles at List of Manchester City F.C. players. If you have any questions about football articles, or anything else to do with Wikipedia for that matter, please do not hesitate to leave a message on my talk page.

Garry Breen
A tag has been placed on Garry Breen, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. The Islander 21:43, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
