Speedy deletion nomination of Rick Little


A tag has been placed on Rick Little, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Randykitty (talk) 18:51, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

Moved to your userspace
I moved your article on Rick Little to User:BridgetThornton/Rick Little so you can work on it. You must get rid of the promotional language and tone, it is no good for Wikipedia and anyway comes across as cringeworthy. Writing for Wikipedia should be straightforward and factual; let the sources and details speak for themselves rather than spinning. You should find sources directly about Rick rather than mentioning him in passing. Passing references can verify facts, but do nothing to show his notability. If you need help, let me know.
