Proposed deletion of John Monk MBE


The article John Monk MBE has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:48, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Notability
Your article on John Monk MBE does not clearly indicate why Monk is notable. Becoming an MBE is enough to get someone some local coverage, as it has for Mr. Monk, but it doesn't really meet the requirements of significant coverage. The mere receipt of the MBE does not per se confer notability, as there are apparently over 100,000 living honorees. If you cannot provide better evidence of notability, I fear that your article will soon be deleted. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:18, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
