Speedy deletion nomination of عاطف نجيب


A tag has been placed on عاطف نجيب, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a foreign language article that was copied and pasted from another Wikimedia project, or was transwikied out to another project. Please see Translation to learn about requests for, and coordination of, translations from foreign-language Wikipedias into English.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "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 the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. 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. Singularity42 (talk) 02:15, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Firas Tlass


The article Firas Tlass has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * The subject of this article does not appear to meet WP:BIO.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Firas Tlass. Thank you. VQuakr (talk) 03:39, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Please stop adding unreferenced controversial biographical content to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Nizar Asaad. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. VQuakr (talk) 03:41, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Nizar Asaad


The article Nizar Asaad has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable 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 the 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. Qwyrxian (talk) 04:21, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Sorting out what happened with Nizar Asaad
Okay, what happened was, another editor saw that part of the article you wrote on Nizar Asaad included attacks on him and another person. That editor then tagged the article for speedy deletion as an attack page--under no circumstances may Wikipedia be used to attack real living people. I looked at the article, and it looked to me that only a little bit of it was an attack, so I removed those parts--do not, under any circumstances, re-add those claims without extremely good sources. However, at the same time, I also proposed that the article be deleted. Wikipedia has a rule that says that every single article about living people must contain at least one reliable source verifying something in the article. So, if you do not add one or more references to the article in the next 7 days, it will be deleted without discussion.

However, even if you add one reference, that does not mean that the article will certainly be kept. In addition, you need to verify, through reliable sources, that the person meets our notability guidelines. At any point, if an editor does not think that notability has been proven by sources, they are free to again nominate it for deletion.

So, the end of the story is that you now need to go back to that article and add reliable sources that verify who Asaad is, why he is notable, etc. If you need help doing that, please leave me a message on my talk page. But let me just remind you one more time: do not insert negative information about Asaad without a good source. Deliberately adding negative, unsourced info to articles can result in a suspension of editing privileges. Qwyrxian (talk) 04:27, 4 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay, so now there's one source. I'm not sure it's reliable, but it's okay, so I removed the deletion tag.  The other one about "Free Syria" is clearly a site designed to support a specific political stance, and thus not reliable for factual information about people.  However, I'm still not sure that xe's notable.  Just being a rich businessman is not, by itself, sufficient claim to notability.  Making a "Top 100" list can be, but the journal that awarded it doesn't even have a WP article, so its probably not enough.  Please add more sources when you have time. Qwyrxian (talk) 06:48, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. VQuakr (talk) 01:30, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Specifically, do not write something negative about a living person without providing a reference following the statement; this sort of content must be verifiable. Please also review WP:NPOV and WP:BLP. Thank you. VQuakr (talk) 01:32, 6 August 2011 (UTC)


 * More about Asaad: I reverted your addition of a "source". You can't just add a source to an article; rather, you need to add information taken from that source and then attatch that source to that info.  Now, there are ways to link things without doing that, but the problem is, that source isn't in English.  I have no idea what that source says, so I don't know how to evaluate it.  I have to rely on you to explain in English what the source says, so that we can tell how relevant it is, what it says about Asaad, etc.  Qwyrxian (talk) 16:00, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
