Speedy deletion nomination of Jean-Pierre Fattal


A tag has been placed on Jean-Pierre Fattal 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. &mdash; RHaworth 14:04, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

A question about your username
Greetings! I see you've created an article on economist Jean-Pierre Fattal. I also notice that your username contains the string Jpf. Are you related to Fattal in some way? Please note that users are not prohibited from starting articles on themselves or other subjects they have a conflict of interest with, but they need to proceed carefully and ensure that the articles comply with all relevant Wikipedia guidelines, including the citation of secondary sources. —C.Fred (talk) 19:07, 5 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi! Sorry but I can not be in agreement with your statement regarding the citation of secondary sources. The data used to develop a thought, can be from a secondary source but the thoughts still belong to the scholar or the author himself. e.g. when you develop your thought on a Library project you do not go and count all the books on the shelves but you make use of the data that systems, inventories or estimates can tell you about quantities...The problem is that you made a decision to remove the page without looking at the content of the three publications. Never mind...it is not important...Just a last message. Once you have read the talk would you kindly delete the whole discussion. I think it has no value to wikipedia and to me to keep it. Thank you! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jpf010 (talk • contribs) 20:47, 5 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Coverage in secondary sources is one of the barometers used to gauge notability of subjects. If Fattal has not been written about in secondary sources, and if Fattal's works are the only sources supporting the article, then it may be inferred that he's not notable. True, I elected not to look at the three works; however, as Fattal wrote them, they were not going to demonstrate that he had won awards or met any of the other WP:BIO criteria.


 * You're free to blank this discussion from your talk page. However, it will still be archived in page history, and it will not eliminate your conflict of interest. —C.Fred (talk) 20:59, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
