Proposed deletion of Michael Cartwright (artist)


The article Michael Cartwright (artist) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * autobio with scant evidence of notability

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. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. &mdash; RHaworth 22:47, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 00:55, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Please do not remove all content from pages without explanation, as you did with this edit to Michael Cartwright (artist). If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Cst17 (talk) 15:47, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

This is your last warning; the next time you remove the maintenance templates from Wikipedia articles without resolving the problem that the template refers to, as you did at Michael Cartwright (artist), you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

Does any read this is this automatically generated? Okay still trying to learn how your wiki works - it is not simple. Thought I had repaired it so could delete it. sorry

notability: There are more than 2 third party sources including 3 articles in primary newspapers of Melbourne, Australia. The Herald (now the Herald Sun), The Age, and the Herald sun. There is an article from World sculpture Magazine, HK as well.

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, instead of writing it yourself, as you did at Michael Cartwright (artist). This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to No original research, Neutral point of view, and Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you.  Teapot  george Talk  17:49, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
