Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the before reinserting it.

Speedy deletion nomination of David Kraft
A tag has been placed on David Kraft 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 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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), 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.

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles you created. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please do the following:

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. DMacks (talk) 07:40, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Hello
A friendly welcome to you. I wanted to write to you personally because I can see you've gone through three accounts and had some trouble with the article you are writing. May I ask, why are you passionate about this subject? Understanding why you want to write the article (and why you think this person is notable) will help me to steer you through some of the issues you are having. Please feel free to respond right below here. 7 07:52, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Also - the reference you added is an article that I can see online here and it mentions nothing about David Kraft. Do you have another reference? (note: if you get an edit conflict and you are reading this after you have tried to reply to my message above you can scroll to the very bottom of the page and copy your text and paste it in again).   7  07:57, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Again - that reference does not mention David Kraft http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/17/sports/othersports/17ski.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1 7  09:08, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Please let's discuss your edits here - please don't keep adding the same information back in.   7  09:16, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of David Kraft


The article David Kraft 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 request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Polargeo (talk) 14:15, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
