Re:Adam Gaynor
You said: "I think this article can be speedily deleted, because I really don't think it can be expanded."

I see some flaws in your statement here. First of all, this guy was guitarist for matchbox twenty, which qualifies him to have an article on Wikipedia. Stating that it can't be expanded is not proper reasoning for nominating a page for speedy deletion. Secondly, the article is a stub, which means it is short at the moment. Maybe someone will expand it later on, and make it longer. But the way it is right now, it would not qualify for CSD A1 criteria. Usually articles that fit into this category are articles with one, two words or a 1 sentence. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know so you'd know for future reference. Thanks, and happy editing.

Re:Question
I left a message on the creator's talk page. If they don't reply soon, I'll probably delete the user page. -- Gray  Porpoise Your wish is my command! 11:53, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Then again, this chap has been inactive since June, and, having had made only four edits, most likely did not intend anything besides testing. -- Gray  Porpoise Your wish is my command! 11:55, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
