Speedy deletion nomination of A Book For The Future


A tag has been placed on A Book For The Future 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, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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". 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 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. JDDJS (talk) 18:12, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of A Book For The Future


The article A Book For The Future has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Quite a good story from a young author, but, I'm afraid, not encyclopaedic. Some day we may have an article about this author, we'll see.

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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hi
I'm Peridon, and I'm an administrator here. I've taken the deletion tag off your story, because it wasn't right for a story. I'm sorry, but that doesn't mean that the story can stay, so I've put a PROD tag on. This means that if no-one takes it off, the article will be deleted after a week. If it does get taken off, the article will probably go to Articles for Deletion for people to discuss it. I don't hold out much hope for it. This is an encyclopaedia, and encyclopaedias don't have stories in them. (Might make them more interesting, but they wouldn't be encyclopaedias then, would they?) If you can write as well as that at your age, it is worth keeping going at it. It will mostly be practice stuff, but I advise you to keep things - even if they are not finished. They can be rewritten or finished later as your skills get better. I threw some things away, and I wish I hadn't. (I kept some others, and was glad I did...) Anyway, good luck with the writing, but don't neglect school work - that will help you to get better at the writing, or to get a job if the writing doesn't work out.
