A tag has been placed on Greg Ellsworth, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. If you plan to provide more material to the article, I advise you to do so immediately, and also put a note on Talk:Greg Ellsworth. An administrator should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 1 under Articles. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template  to the page, and then immediately add such material.

Elmer Ellsworth
In doing a little checking, there is already an article at Elmer E. Ellsworth. You may want to review it and see if there's anything you can add. I've updated the Ellsworth page to point to it. As for yourself, I have no idea whether you're a notable DJ. The main thing required (per Notability Guidelines) are "multiple, non-trivial" articles or reports from what we call Reliable Sources. That would include news media and major music sites, but would not include blogs or forums. The article you had originally created had no content at all beyond a name and a link, and that is not acceptable as an article. Hope this helps. Fan-1967 20:18, 24 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Just as a note, there is, for obvious reasons, generally a healthy skepticism toward autobiographical articles. People don't tend to be very objective about themselves. They also tend to include material which cannot be Verified from external Reliable Sources. There is a policy, WP:AUTO, on autobiography, that you should read before creating any article on yourself. While the practice isn't forbidden, it is discouraged because of the inherent conflict of interest. Fan-1967 21:00, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
