Joel Stottlemire
You added Joel Stottlemire to the list of people affected by bipolar disorder. I've removed the entry, since you entry did not provide any citation to demonstrate that entry meets all the criteria set out at the top of the list, namely:
 * This is a list of people accompanied by verifiable source citations associating them with bipolar disorder. This list includes only: a) deceased persons; and b) living persons who have been frank about their condition. It does not include speculation about status of living people who have not publicly stated themselves to have bipolar disorder. In addition to the above criteria, persons are only listed here if they also meet the Wikipedia notability criteria for biographical articles.

 * Update: I see you have re-added the entry, without providing any references to independent third-party sources for notability. I have removed it again, as per the requirements above. Please don't re-add the entry again until you can do so. You might want to read WP:BIO for more information on the requirements for biographical articles. -- The Anome (talk) 19:22, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Joel Stottlemire
A tag has been placed on Joel Stottlemire requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. The Anome (talk) 19:19, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
