Speedy deletion of Michael Macken
A tag has been placed on Michael Macken 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 notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance 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.

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), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Ros0709 (talk) 22:43, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Michael Macken article
Hi Flipcamac and welcome to Wikipedia! Please don't keep removing the db-bio tag from the Michael Macken article. It specifically says to not remove it if you are the creator of the article. You need to let the process work, an administrator will evaluate the tag and remove it if appropriate. You have correctly added the hangon tag and you are free to try to improve the article in the meantime, but don't remove the CSD tag - it really won't work out well for you.

Even if the article gets through speedy deletion, it will still need to get through the normal criteria for articles on Wikipedia (WP:MUSIC). Your own particular opinion on whether it's an important topic really doesn't matter (and neither does mine). The community as a whole decides on it, so it's best to stay cool and follow the process. Please read the links I've given above to get familiar with how Wikipedia works. It may be best for you to try editing some other articles to get familiar with our site before trying one of your own.

Please do not attack other editors. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Per this edit Ros0709 (talk) 09:23, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
