The article Ian J. Dingman has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 03:56, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Ian Dingman
I've removed the CSD, but you'll want to provide the stub with at least one solid reference that doesn't originate from the illustrator's own webpage or that of his agent. Also, if you were trying to redirect the article, you didn't insert the right syntax. Best, --Pgagnon999 (talk) 04:37, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

I fixed the DAB for you. Please be careful when you do page moves, as you can screw up other articles (as you did with the lacrosse player by the same name). Also, do not leave notes on the article page; use the talk page of the article. see WP:Help for useful info on how Wikipedia works. --Pgagnon999 (talk) 06:08, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
