Hi Joyce and welcome. You recently created an article about yourself Joyce Schwarz. Another editor tagged it for possible speedy deletion, but I agree that there is a claim of notability in the article, and have removed it. However, writing articles about yourself here is not a good idea and needs to be done with some care, if at all. I suggest that you read these pages before continuing to edit the article WP:COI and WP:AUTO. Just click the blue links for some important information. --Slp1 (talk) 01:35, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Joyce Schwarz


The article Joyce Schwarz has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Doesn't meet the notability criteria for an academic. None of the publications/books listed are notable and the reference links don't lead to functional pages. The subject's official webpage does not constitute an independent source. The article history also shows a clear |conflict of interest.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Mabeenot (talk) 00:36, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
