Article in progress moved
Hi, I moved the article you were apparently working on to User:Smalloy87/Hayslett. It's a bit confusing have it on your talk page- that's where other editors leave you messages. Friday (talk) 21:14, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

By the way, I don't see how this content could ever be suitable for Wikipedia. It would need to be sourced from reliable sources rather than your own conversations with the subject. While she does have a book, it looks like it's from a vanity press, and I don't see any indication that she or her book has gotten any kind of significant media coverage. As content not usable on Wikipedia, it's possible someone will delete it sometime. So, if this content is important to you, you probably want to copy it somewhere else as soon as you can. Maybe you could make your own website about the book and the author? It should be somewhere other than on Wikipedia tho, since here we're an encyclopedia, not a free web host.

Deleted
I went ahead and deleted this, since it seemed unlikely to be content we could ever use. Friday (talk) 16:47, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Carmela Hayslett
A tag has been placed on Carmela Hayslett, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of Carmela Hayslett and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- Shadowlynk (Talk) 21:21, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

I deleted the duplicate content that was on your user page, also. Your user page is meant to be for content relating to your work on Wikipedia, not just a place for you to write about whatever you want. Friday (talk) 21:26, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
