Beth Ritchie
Hi there! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! Your article about Beth Ritchie is off too a good start, however, at this point not only is it a "stub" (a really small article), but, it lacks reliable sources. Sadly, just citing one reference, her own website, is not enough to merit inclusion in Wikipedia. We need enough reliable sources to display her notability. Are you able to expand it with reliable sources? I do hope so. Right now, just a heads up - it might get nominated for deletion because of the sourcing. If we can help you out at all, please stop by the Teahouse. Thanks again for contributing! SarahStierch (talk) 17:12, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Gayatri Gopinath


A tag has been placed on Gayatri Gopinath 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. red dog six (talk) 01:24, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi, Icelandical! I'm another editor (and admin) here at Wikipedia, and I've declined the speedy deletion nomination here and added some material which I think will help establish that the article meets Wikipedia's guidelines. I wanted to get some additional information--full length reviews of the subject's book, etc., into the article quickly, so it's possible I've made a few errors in trying to flesh things out. Feel free to fix anything I've messed up, or drop a note on my talk page if I can be of any assistance. --j⚛e deckertalk 02:46, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
