Proposed deletion of Alexandre P. Smith


The article Alexandre P. Smith has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * I find no matches in GNews or GBooks and the article fails to make a case against the criteria of WP:AUTHOR. It seems unlikely that reliable sources to demonstrate the impact required will be added in the near future. Though http://www.paisano-online.com appears in the page history, this is a student-run weekly newspaper circulated on campus, which would not address impact.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Fæ (talk) 07:18, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
