Speedy deletion nomination of User:Ilovemanicmedia


A tag has been placed on User:Ilovemanicmedia, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

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; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Wuh Wuz  Dat  00:12, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

My Article on Ian Zachary Whitingham. Please feel free to criticize
No explanation of the subject's significance (real person, animal, organization, or web content

Personal Life
Brown was born in Manchester, fostered by Pauline and Terry Whittingham until the age of 12 at which time they adopted him although he also had contact with his birth parents until this age. He was educated at the University of Westminster despite his well known dyslexia. Ian was brought up with two brothers and two sisters. Sadly his younger sister Edwina died aged 31 in April 2008.

Early Days
On a shopping trip in Manchester with his parents, Ian was spotted by child modelling agency Tuesday Child, who quickly took him on their books and much work followed. Ian's parents then gave up their jobs and home in Manchester and bought a newsagent in the centre of Blackpool. Ian was then aged 14 and looking for a new challenge, got a job as a waiter in The Palm Court Hotel, Blackpool. After only 4 months, his afternoon teas became famous with the over 60s. "It was great fun with the old dears and at the age of 14 I was getting £300 a week in my hand," and the Blackpool Gazette did their first piece on him. His new school, Highfield High School, noted that Ian, despite his dyslexia, was highly intelligent and put him in the top class. He shined in drama, music and commerce and the school made him the Music Prefect within 3 months. During this time he was also modelling for Blackpool Only model agency and starred at a charity catwalk show, which again brought him to the attention of the Blackpool Gazette.

Due to this publicity and a successful audition, at the age of 16, Ian was offered a full 3-year scholarship to the world famous Italia Conti stage school in London.

After stage school, Ian went on to do numerous jobs and smiled his way into banking, A&E nursing, social services, a travel agency, insurance and also worked at the famous Browns membership club. Here, the likes of George Michael and Janet Jackson would request Zach to be their host. He remained there for 2 years, during which time he became openly bi-sexual and had a short affair with the actor Rupert Everett

Modelling
On his first outing to the famous Soho House members club in London, Ian was spotted by a model agent from the Models 1 Agency and was duly signed up. Big campaigns followed including Lee Cooper. , Next, Top Man and many others. He became known as Zach; due to the fact Ian was considered "too common" a name for Models 1 Agency. Zach stands at 5 foot and 11 inches and to be a catwalk model the minimum height requirement is 6 foot. Not to be defeated, he put layers of socks in his shoes to build up his height and did a few more shows but a fellow model informed on him. Pop videos followed and Zach appeared in many but has particularly fond memories of the Ream pop video shoot. D:Ream's hit, 'Things can only get better', became Labour's anthem and took the number one singles chart around the world. During this time he shared a flat in London's Earls Court with Craig Young, from a pop group called Deuce. Craig had consecutive top ten hits including 'Call it love' and 'On the bible' and then became a presenter on GMTV. "Out of all the famous people I met, Craig was the nicest," Ian said, "and we're still in touch today."

Music
Zach then went to audition for a new boy band called Cause 'n' Effect (other members included Dan Corsi who went on to join the group Northern Line and Paul Danan who went on to Hollyoaks). Despite being a weak vocalist, he was strong in looks, dance and was a very talented songwriter, landing him a place in the group. He penned the 3rd single for the group, 'Faith on a Lonely Street'. The group was signed to A & M Records and released 3 singles including 'Hold on to Your Dreams' and 'Stay.' Cause 'n' Effect were the supporting artists for Backstreet Boys, Eternal and Ant and Dec. Despite extensive national press coverage and a number of tours, all the singles were unsuccessful and the group was quickly dropped from the label, however the group's management retained Zach and secured a new deal with A & M. Four weeks before the release of his single, 'Everyone I need is here,' A & M Records went into in liquidation. 'Everything I need is here' was number 76 in pre-release sales. Zach was managed by James Lawrence, whose father, Vernon Lawrence, was the former programme controller of UK broadcaster ITV.

Bust up with Boy George
In July 1996 during the Gay Pride parade in Clapham Common, London; an argument broke out between pop group 4 Guyz and Boy George. The 4 Guyz Manager John Pickering said, “He told our publicist to f*** off and made a stream of bitchy comments at the guys” when Zach stepped in to defend 4 Guyz, the situation only elevated and abuse was hurled at the young pop stars by the British Idol. *****Please note editor this is a quote lifted from a source. If it is inappropriate please tell me and i will remove it*****

He worked alongside infamous investigative editor Mazher Mahmood, bringing many scoops, including 'The Bogus Nurse'. He then went on to freelance for the Sunday Mirror and The People, where he excelled under editor Mark Woods as a senior investigative reporter. Zach achieved a record-breaking five front-page leads in eight weeks, including 'The Hanging Judge', involving a judge who had co-incidentally improperly sentenced Zach to jail for a minor offence some years previously. Zach's story led to the judge's immediate suspension and then dismissal.

Ian also worked as creative director for boys teenage magazine "Private"
