Notability of Philip DeFranco
A tag has been placed on Philip DeFranco requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it 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. PMDrive1061 (talk) 23:01, 3 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Please don't remove deletion notices. In the meantime, please read WP:NOT, WP:BIO and WP:NOTABILITY.  Thank you.  --PMDrive1061 (talk) 23:05, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Once more: Please don't remove deletion notices. You've written this like an advertisement, you've provided no reliable third-party sources...sorry, but this person does not qualify for an article. Furthermore, you are on the verge of a block for a 3RR violation. Please do not remove the deletion notice again. Instead, follow the instructions in the message. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 23:12, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
