Speedy deletion of Lisa Coffi
A tag has been placed on Lisa Coffi 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.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

notability
I tagged the pages that you created for speedy deletion, and I apologize if you feel any ill-will. You see, as Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it has a certain notability standard for article inclusion. For people it is wp:bio and for organizations it is wp:org. The articles that you created fall short of meeting any of the notability standards. I might be wrong, however. Check out the linked notability guidelines and please let me know if you feel that I am incorrect. Best, -- brew crewer  (yada, yada) 22:17, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

notability provided by Wikipedia
Well, the page is already deleted now, so I don't know how much use this is; however, the only reason I tried to create the page in the first place was to satisfy the fact that WIKIPEDIA brings up a link to a page for our organization when you do a search. Try it yourself. There are 5 links for "Shakespeare by the Sea", one of which would point to a page about us (if it hadn't been deleted, that is.) The other links refer to organizations much like ours, so I thought I would fill in the info. Those links wouldn't exist if there hadn't been multiple searches/inquiries that pointed to them, yes? It never occurred to me that a non-profit organization that doesn't charge for its performances might be considered "spam" or "blatant advertising" (which the administrator branded it). At no point did I ask people to attend the performances or to donate money. It was just supposed to be a history of our organization, since apparently people are interested enough in Shakespeare by the Sea to do searches on this site for it and for you to have links to it. In any case, your response nor that of the administrator really helps me to know how to rewrite it, as I don't see either case for deletion (notability or blatant advertisement). So best of luck to you, too. Hsking (talk) 03:44, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
