Notability of Hermine de Saussure
A tag has been placed on Hermine de Saussure requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Exxolon (talk) 02:21, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Hermine de Saussure
If you want the article to be retained on wikipedia you need to fix it so that it shows how she is notable. Please read WP:Bio and see what it takes to show that she is notable. The way the article stands right now it does not say she is notable. Jons63 (talk) 12:26, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I'm not sure that would help - she's only mentioned very briefly in an article that's actually about someone else. See WP:RS - we need independent verfiable sources showing her notability - these can be online, books, periodicals, newspapers etc. If you can dig up some good sources then you're welcome to recreate the article.
