Speedy deletion nomination of Leeder (surname)


A tag has been placed on Leeder (surname) 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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Reliable sources
"As it was told to me" is not a good way to source a Wikipedia article. We require reliable sources that are accessible to anyone who cares to verify the information in the article. This generally entails published materials (books, journal articles, magazine articles) or archives of broadcast material (television or radio programs) that are accessible to the general public (not necessarily easily available, but available: e.g., a document archive available at only one library would be sufficient as long as members of the general public are allowed access to the archive). Personal reflections or documents held in your personal possession are not valid sources as they are not subject to review and verification. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 20:08, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
