Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Royal colonial boy. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Royal colonial boy


A tag has been placed on Royal colonial boy, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

A tag has been placed on Royal colonial boy, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising,. Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to 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 tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Clubjustin3 (talk) 09:25, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

The problems with the article you wrote
Hi there,

As all of the above messages show, creating articles here isn't always straight forward. But, unlike most of the above automated notices, this is a real person explaining the real situation. (all of the blue links below link to articles that fully explain the reasoning).


 * 1) What you consider a reference, may not be suitable here.  quoting Ancestry.com isn't enough,  as the reason for references is that they need to verify the information.  Unless you are featured on the home page of ancestry.com, then that isn't good enough. Secondly, we need reliable sources.  That generally means peer referenced articles, books, or newspaper articles written independently of the subject - ie not something you did write, or could have written, which means no blogs, forums etc.
 * 2)  To have an article here, we need the subject to meet the general notability guideline.  Basically, it needs multiple significant coverage in independent reliable sources.  So you are not automatically notable because you are related to someone famous.  Autobiographies are also generally discouraged, as if you are truly notable, then someone else will probably write the article about you.
 * 3) There are numerous reasons how and why articles are deleted.  They can be fairly quick with only 1 or 2 people involved,  or more comprehensive discussions over a week.  But all follow a process.  We don't get arbitrarily delete things, unless they absolutely fail to meet our requirements.

If you have any queries, please reply here, or on my talk page. Cheers, The-Pope (talk) 10:42, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
