Speedy deletion nomination of Dave D'Mello
A tag has been placed on Dave D'Mello, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate,. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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 hangon 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 10:58, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Userspace pages and categories
Hi, re User:Sallyliss/Dave D'Mello, all categories are currently live, which they really should not be. The work-around of this is either to place Nowiki tags across all cats, or to place a : before the word "Category", which turns the live cat into a link to that cat. I notice that the article has been previously deleted, and my opinion is that the sources may not meet WP:RS, thus failing to establish WP:N. However, you are free to continue to work up the article in your userspace as you wish, and if you can find mainstream sources for references, the article will have a better chance of survival.
