Welcome!

Hello, T7016, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Keith Homstad, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article.

Speedy deletion nomination of Keith Homstad


A tag has been placed on Keith Homstad 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.

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; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Jimmy Pitt  talk  15:44, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I regret that I had to delete your article, but I am afraid it is not the sort of thing that Wikipedia is for: this is an encyclopedia, not a social-networking site or notice-board, and it only remains a useful encyclopedia by having clear standards about what sort of articles are acceptable. Subjects for articles have to meet the standard explained at Notability (people), and there is a long list of things that Wikipedia is not, which includes Wikipedia is not a memorial site. Please accept my regrets, on behalf of Wikipedia, and my sympathy in your loss. JohnCD (talk) 15:49, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
