Contesting the speedy

Brey's a pretty important musician, and I think the article establishes that even in its current form. He's the principal cellist of a fairly important orchestra, for one thing, and he's listed as performing with a number of notable groups. --User:AlbertHerring ^{Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla!} 16:35, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes its a stub article but even if he wasn't principle cellist of NYP, he has won two major international music competitions. Either of those would make him notable as well.Nrswanson (talk) 16:38, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the notice. It was wholly inappropriate. When an article asserts that someone is a virtuoso cellist and principal cellist of a major orchestra that is indicating the importance or significance of the subject. It needs more references, which should be easy to find. But that is no grounds for deletion, speedy or otherwise. I roundly object to "vandal fighters" who slap on speedy delete notices within one minute of an article's creation, when they know absolutely nothing about the subject, or what constitutes an "indication of importance". How many potentially good articles has wikipedia lost thanks to their ministrations? New page patrolling is not a video-game. Voceditenore (talk) 17:01, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
