Speedy deletion nomination of Dave Drewitt


A tag has been placed on Dave Drewitt, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article that does not provide sufficient context to identify its subject. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. CanadianLinuxUser (talk) 12:35, 31 August 2011 (UTC)


 * I have declined CanadianLinuxUser's request for the moment. If you intend to turn that into an article, it might be best to at least get the basic structure of 'Dave Drewitt is a ________ best known for __________' to at least make a reasonable claim for notability.  If you hadn't intended to create an article and are just playing around with the features, you can reply here by editing this page and let me know.  I'll move the page into a sandbox for you where you can edit it without other editors being concerned by the contents to some extent.  Thanks! Syrthiss (talk) 12:36, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
