Speedy deletion nomination of Steven anthony newman


A tag has been placed on Steven anthony newman requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. ErikHaugen (talk) 08:30, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Sorry, but being a real person is not enough: to have an article in Wikipedia someone needs to be notable, see also WP:Notability (people). Also, people are strongly discouraged from writing about themselves, for reasons explained at WP:Autobiography. You have a user page at User:Sanewman73 where you can put some information about yourself, but even that is intended for information about you as a Wikipedia contributor - Wikipedia is not a social-networking site like Myspace or LinkedIn for people to write about themselves.
