Speedy deletion nomination of BSU mpa student


A tag has been placed on BSU mpa student requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Feezo (Talk) 22:12, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

I am new to this site and do not intend to post unauthorized content. I am still learning the ropes on how to edit articles and I could use some assistance.thank you.Bsu mpa student (talk) 22:25, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * A good place to start is by reading the guide to writing WP:Your first article. Two problems with your first effort were:
 * It didn't show any reason why the subject was important or significant enough to have an article in an encyclopedia. Wikipedia is selective: it doesn't expect to have articles about every person, or about every book, or band, or company. The test 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." The question is, have other people, independent of the subject, thought it worth writing substantial comment about?
 * It seemed to be about yourself. Writing about yourself is strongly discouraged, for reasons explained at Autobiography. You have a user page at User:Bsu mpa student where you can put some information about yourself, if you like, but even that is intended for communication within the project, and you should not think of it as a home-page or a place for a full autobiography or CV. There are sites like Myspace and Facebook where you can write about yourself, but Wikipedia is different.
 * Look at the links in the Welcome section at the top of this page: they will tell you more about Wikipedia and how to contribute.
