Nancy Michael
A tag has been placed on Nancy Michael, 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 Nancy Michael 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 independent 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. UltraExactZZ Claims~ Evidence 13:59, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

...It looks like you're posting an article about a candidate for office, encouraging readers to vote for them on November the 4th. While the subject might be notable in and of themselves (as with Barack Obama, John McCain, and others), we do not generally permit articles that are not Neutral in tone. Specifically, we do not permit advertising or promotional material, which - unfortunately - this qualifies as. Please read through some of the links I posted at the top of this page, and feel free to ask any questions you might have - but, in the meantime, please do not post this article again. Thank you.

 * Your best bet at this point would be to try a draft article at User:Soosunt/Nancy Michael. You'll want to have a look at our core policies, linked above - specifically, a subject must be Notable for something. Most mayors aren't notable in and of themselves, nor are candidates for state office - but, if Mayor Michael did something unusual or noteworthy while in office, and there was coverage of that activity in multiple Reliable Sources, then an article might be in order. The trick here is that the article must be neutral - we can't say how wonderful a subject is, nor can we condemn them - and you're correct, telling others to vote for them is right out. But a neutral article that tells who the person is, what they've done, and why they are notable should be fine. Please let me know if I can be of assistance in drafting such an article, or formatting it, or whatever. Best, UltraExactZZ Claims~ Evidence 18:38, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
