Proposed deletion of George The Flippin' Genius


The article George The Flippin' Genius has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Wuh Wuz  Dat  20:22, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of George The Flippin' Genius


A tag has been placed on George The Flippin' Genius 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 band or musician, 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, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Wuh Wuz  Dat  20:22, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

Next steps
I deleted the article George The Flippin' Genius. It was not suitable for Wikipedia in the form it was started. Another administrator asked for a little time so you could add appropriate material, but you have not added any material since that time. It is very important to have references to reliable sources in biographies of living people. I understand that you might need some time to pull together the appropriate material, in order to do that without editors or admins breathing down your neck, consider starting a version is user space, such as User:Ottosclear/George The Flippin' Genius. In fact, you can click on that red link and start adding material there; as long as you stay away from copyright infirngements or attacks, you will have time to get the article in decent shape. I also urge you to read the links in the message sent to you by Wuhwuzdat in the post above.-- SPhilbrick  T  23:56, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
