Speedy deletion nomination of Mike Priestner


A tag has been placed on Mike Priestner 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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, you can place a request here. Sourov0000 (talk) 15:34, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Recent articles
I note that you have created articles about Go Auto, a chain of auto dealerships across Western Canada, and Mike Priestner, Go Auto's CEO. I note also that the pages have been nominated for speedy deletion. Merely being a somewhat large chain of auto dealerships is not sufficient for inclusion at Wikipedia. There needs to be evidence that the company meets the the criteria for inclusion, which generally involves showing that the organization has been the topic of multiple significant articles in reliable media. An organization as large as Go Auto may well meet that criteria, but its size alone is not an automatic determinant.

The same issue holds true for Priestner. If his only claim to fame is that he is CEO of Go Auto, it is not likely that he merits his own article. However, if he has documented accomplishments outside of this role (e.g. if he is a major leader of the community or a major philanthropical force in the community), this may make a difference.

Good luck with your articles. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:43, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
