Speedy deletion nomination of Matthew Asinari


A tag has been placed on Matthew Asinari 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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 05:24, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

A little help
Hi, Teo. I wanted to stop by and offer some help, if you want it. The issues that you're running into are very common. I'll try and explain the issues here so you can get a better idea as to what's going on. Hopefully it's easier to understand what's going on through talking to me rather than trying to learn from the template messages you're getting. First off, Wikipedia has a guideline that governs what is to be included in the encyclopedia. It's called WP:NOTABILITY and is rather large. It has many subsections but for this case, the areas that would apply to your father are WP:GNG and WP:BIO. WP:GNG basically states that a person is notable if they have received significant coverage from independent and reliable sources. For instance, a band that has had articles written about them by CNN and Rolling Stone is notable. A band whose article only includes a link to Facebook and a mention in a local newspaper, is not notable and won't be included in the encyclopedia until they become notable (if they ever do). WP:BIO is mostly the same but also makes some exceptions for people who make a large impact on an industry, the world, etc. This isn't someone who's just "well known", it's someone like the Beatles who change music. It's really rare that someone would make such a huge change to the world and not garner significant coverage from independent and reliable sources, though.

In the case of your father's article, the immediate issue is notability. The article needs some work but that issue is secondary to the notability of the subject (your father). We need to establish notability, ASAP. I read through the references you added and, in my opinion, they don't constitute significant coverage. They appear to include quotes from him which may indicate some importance but importance is different than notability. There are some other articles included that would be considered significant coverage like this blog post but it's not independent and it's not a particularly reliable source (it's no BBC, WSJ, etc.). If you want to establish notability quickly, find some articles specifically about your father from reliable and independent sources.

The other issues listed at the top of the article, as I mentioned before, are rather trivial at this point. The advert tag as place because of phrases like, "Matthew's extensive career". His career may be extensive but the word "extensive" is inherently subjective and not a word you'd regularly find in an encyclopedia. When words like "significant", "prominent", and "extensive" are used often in an article, the article starts to get far from encyclopedic. On Wikipedia, those words are often called weasel words because they're opinions.

The tag about "too many links" is a very low level tag. It's simply stating that the article has too many internal links (links to other WP articles). It's not something to worry about at all, at this point.

The tag about a contributor having a close connection was placed because of your connection to the subject of the article (your father). With that connection, you are by no means prohibited from editing the article but it does constitute a conflict of interest. Our guideline regarding editing with a COI can be found here. Obviously, you can read through it if you'd like but in a nutshell, it's basically stating that writing about a subject with which you have a connection can be very difficult. In my experience, some people attempt to promote their company, a person etc. but usually it shows itself as weasel words as I mentioned before. We can deal with that later. I wouldn't worry about it right now.

Lastly, even if the article is deleted, we can always bring it back. It's not deleted, exactly, it's essentially hidden unless you have been given rights to view deleted pages.

Is this making sense at this point? If you have any questions, I'd be happy to do my best to answer them. I've been around for a while. You can reply here or on my talk page. Have a great weekend!  Ol Yeller21 Talktome  18:40, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
