Speedy deletion nomination of Travis Echelberry
Hello Josephl1225,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Travis Echelberry for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Ratzd&#39;mishukribo (talk) 18:24, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Truth
We're not saying that it wasn't true. We're saying you should look at WP:BIO and WP:ATHLETE, and WP:RS about reliable independent sources (needed to prove a pass at BIO or ATHLETE). As school and college athletes are not considered notable for being that, I can't see much chance. Remember that Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia. It's not a directory like LinkedIn, or social media like Facebook. There are rules and requirements here that those places don't have. Peridon (talk) 18:35, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
