Welcome!

Hello, Darkwarlord69, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Peter Marshall Jordan, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type helpme on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Speedy deletion nomination of Peter Marshall Jordan
A tag has been placed on Peter Marshall Jordan 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 hangon 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Ugh...I came here to welcome you, and I see someone has already recommending speedily deleting your first contribution to Wikipedia. Wikipedia has policies that govern what topics can have their own article; the one at question here is Notability. If you want to show that Mr. Jordan is notable, you will need to provide additional reliable sources discussing him. Do you believe any more sources exist that can be added? You can put questions here or on my talk page. Qwyrxian (talk) 12:47, 30 June 2010 (UTC)


 * I see that the article was deleted. If you believe that Mr. Jordan is notable, you can work on the article here, on your talk page, and improve it before you move it over to mainspace.  That way you can make sure the article is strong enough to avoid being speedily deleted.  However, if you find that the article doesn't actually meet WP's notability guidelines, please join us in contributing to the encyclopedia in other ways! Qwyrxian (talk) 13:22, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
