Non-notable junior high teacher —teb728 t c 01:44, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Appears to be a good faith contribution, with a reference. This is a very promising beginning for an editor who may be in junior high school themelves. If deleted, would you compose a kind e-mail to encourage this person? Is there a typical editing task you'd suggest that is fun and do-able for someone like this who is getting started out? Seems to me there's another site that picks up these articles-- could we point the editor in that direction? Djembayz (talk) 02:31, 9 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete, no claim to notability. By all means encourage the entry creator, but not by keeping the entry. Hairhorn (talk) 02:50, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as non-notable. Dori ☾Talk ☯ Contribs☽ 02:55, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete is right. Should have just been marked with the A7 tag from the start. Keihatsu (talk) 07:47, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
 * It was, but after an anon removed the tag a couple of times, I decided not to fight it. —teb728 t c 08:03, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete obviously fails WP:BASIC.  A note on the originator's talk page by the nominator explaining the deletion (assuming it will be deleted) in simpler terms and alternative options would be in the spirit of WP:NEWCOMER. Maxkingesq (talk) 11:30, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete as non-notable, A7. Isn't there a provision that you can exceed 3RR when restoring speedy tags, or am I forgetting something? Buggie111 (talk) 00:31, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
