Speedy deletion nomination of Nathan Derry


A tag has been placed on Nathan Derry 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 credibly 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 "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, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Delection
Why was my page deleted? 😱😨😰 SammyGDarts (talk) 15:08, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I have moved Nathan Derry to your userspace as a userspace draft because it contains no prose. Articles without any prose can be deleted speedily, but it looks like you're still working on it, so I moved it (it's at User:SammyGDarts/Nathan Derry).


 * Nonetheless, you still need to keep notability in mind. Notability is Wikipedia's main inclusion criterion, and it only allows topics that have received attention from the outside world to be covered. Basically, a topic is notable if it has been described, not just mentioned, in at least several reputable sources (e.g. news, published books, and articles from academic journals). Self-published sources — such as blogs, social media, and YouTube videos – don't count. You can find sources with Google News and Scholar


 * If you can find sources to prove that your subject is notable, great! You can move it back to article space (Place on your talk page for assistance) or submit it through Articles for creation for review. If you can't prove your subject's notability, unfortunately you can't have an article on your subject. But you could still include information about your subject in a relevant article.
