Speedy deletion nomination of Colleen Mullen


A tag has been placed on Colleen Mullen 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 or group of people, 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. —S MALL JIM   15:35, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

May 2014
Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion, which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. —S MALL JIM   15:45, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Again, do not remove the tag. That's disruptive, and makes it less likely others will take your claims of good-faith encyclopediac goals seriously. DMacks (talk) 17:52, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Notability
Hi Dan. In addition to the above messages, you should be aware that before any person can have an article in Wikipedia, it is necessary to show that they pass our test for notability. That is, the person must have been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Self-published material and trivial, routine or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability. In addition, all content must be verifiable. It's quite a high entrance requirement: I hope this explanation helps. Also, you should read our guideline on conflict of interest. —S MALL JIM   15:51, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
