Matt Keane article
Hi, I'm Neiltonks and I wanted to let you know that I've tagged an article you've created, Matt Keane for potential notability and conflict-of-interest issues.

The subject is a UK local politician. Such people are not automatically considered notable in Wikipedia terms, though I appreciate that in this case there are some additional factors, in that he's very young and holds records for the youngest councillor in the town and the youngest Mayor. The referencing in the article is all local in nature and we generally require someone to have a wider notability in order to be included in the encyclopaedia. Overall I just don't think he meets the criteria in WP:BLP, the policy for biographical articles where the subject is a living person. I'm minded to nominate the article for deletion, but I thought I'd give it a while to see if you or anyone else can come up with any references which better demonstrate notability (though I must admit I can't find any myself).

Also, the fact that your account has only been used to create the Matt Keane article or link to it, plus the username starting MK, suggests that you may be Matt Keane, or at least be connected to him in some way. If so that's a conflict of interest, which doesn't necessarily prevent you from writing the article but does place some obligations on you - see WP:COI for a discussion of this.

Sorry to seem negative but I strongly suspect that in its current state the article is bound to be deleted eventually and I just wanted to give you warning of this and some pointers as to why this might happen. If you have any questions, please leave a note on my talk page and I'll get back to you. Neiltonks (talk) 11:58, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
