Speedy deletion nomination of Jeffery Smith
A tag has been placed on Jeffery Smith requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 00:32, 16 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Howdy, I read through the article you added and decided against deleting it, based on the notability suggested in the article. I did clean it up a bit, Wikipedia does not allow content which is not neutral point of view, and add some tags to the article.  I did wonder if the name is not supposed to be Jeffrey Smith.  If that is the case it is easy to move the article to something like Jeffrey Smith (jazz musician) using the move function.  If you could add some references to the article, it would be greatly appreciated as well (what issue of Time was the review, for instance).  Let me know if you have any questions or concerns and thanks for the work on Wikipedia.  --TeaDrinker (talk) 02:46, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
