User talk:Sangare

OS seems a worthy subject for an article, but if you would like the article to remain you must write it in the WP style, which includes:
 * looking like an encyclopedia article not a CV (use asterisks for lists, just as I did)
 * saying in the first sentence something to demonstrate notability, like professor of X at, winner of the XYZ prize (whatever applies). Use the exact word: "notable"; do not use "famous"
 * not going into disproportionate personal details
 * listing college degrees with university and year -- and putting the university names in double brackets
 * listing important awards
 * listing important memberships and offices held
 * listing books or other works published as formal references style: Author, title, Publisher, year ISBN if possible.
 * listing some major published papers, say how many.

and, most important, giving some 3rd party sources. A website at a university etc. can be one, but it cannot be the only one. reviews of your work are what is really needed are fine, or a newspaper stories. Print or web is OK, but not from a list or a blog.

There is serious prejudice here against articles written by the subject or a member of his family, so it has to be a really solid article. See WP:AUTO and WP:COI These is also, unfortunately, prejudice against people from the academic world. Look at similar articles.

If you do not do this immediately, the article will probably be deleted in a day or two--though not by me. I apologize for not having the time to help you personally. DGG 05:51, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
