Proposed deletion of Nick Allan
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Nick Allan, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process&#32; because of the following concern:
 * As a press secretary, he will sometimes be cited in the press. However, I have found no articles or indepth reliable independent sources about him, only quoting him. Fails WP:BIO.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
