Speedy deletion nomination of James Glinka


A tag has been placed on James Glinka 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 band or musician, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Baseball  Watcher  20:49, 12 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Nice article. Just 2 problems, both big:
 * You're not supposed to write articles about yourself -- see Autobiography
 * It's not clear that you're what we'd call "notable" (i.e., famous) -- see the rules in Notability (music)


 * You can contest the speedy deletion and force it to get formally reviewed but if you don't meet those rules above (if you're not famous), then the outcome will be the same plus you'll have wasted a lot of time and opened yourself up to a detailed critique as to just how deserving you are of an article, etc. (sadly, those debates can be mean and messy).


 * You've got a good touch for editing, though! I hope you'll contribute more, at least until you get famous and too busy to edit!
