Speedy deletion nomination of Raymond h. littge


Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Raymond h. littge requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

 * You probably should attempt to create this article at Draft:Raymond Littge. We generally do not use middle initials unless they are needed to disambiguate similar names. Since you are new I would strongly suggest you avail yourself of the Article for Creation service. That will allow you to submit your draft for review and critique prior to it going into the encyclopedia, thus saving you the frustration of having it deleted.


 * From your username, I am guessing this person is either a law officer or soldier whom has died. Two things: First, Wikipedia is not a memorial. Altho dying in service of mankind is very honorable and tragic, in and of itself, it is not notable, which is our requirement for a subject to be included in the encyclopedia. Unless this person (himself, not just the circumstances of his death) has been written about in detail in multiple reliable sources, you will not be able to craft an article that will survive deletion.  Unfortunately, for both military and law enforcement, being killed in action is one of the possible outcomes of career choice. For military, there is an exception.  If the individual in question has been awarded his (or any) country's highest honor (Congressional Medal of Honor or its equivalent), we consider that person automatically notable. I hope this helps, and I'm more than happy to help anytime. Just drop me a note on my talk page. Thanks. John from Idegon (talk) 20:06, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
