Speedy deletion nomination of "Dana Loconto"


A tag has been placed on "Dana Loconto" 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.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mkdw talk 00:07, 6 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Hey, not so fast. After having reviewed this potential deletion, I've found some amount of independent coverage of this official.  I still think it's a fair question to ask whether this subject meets our WP:GNG guideline, which you can read there, but largely boils down to the question of the amount of independent, reliable, in-depth coverage.  Its's not clear how strongly our editing community would weigh the numerous contributions on this subject in the Gadsden Times, wider coverage would settle the matter as to how independent that coverage is.   If this is to be considered for deletion, I think it's best that it be done via community discussion in view of the sources I've seen and in some cases added to the article.  --j⚛e deckertalk 01:02, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I think people will have trouble with whether Loconto has enough significant independent coverage where Dana is the subject of the publication. Also, its an interesting article because as a musician he wouldn't meet WP:MUSICIAN. Simply being named in a source doesn't establish notability for musicians. The rest as an official doesn't seem likely either because he's only an official and not a very prominent one but I agree that's a discussion for AfD and not C7.
