==Notability of Dennis kuchar==

Untitled

A tag has been placed on Dennis kuchar, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. 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. Haddons 06:59, 11 June 2007 (UTC) on the User Talk page of the author[reply]

Haddons 06:59, 11 June 2007 (UTC)haddons Im still building this page, it still requires some work. He is the cardiologist who found the link between the original claritin medication and heart attacks, and was instrumental in the research into the effectiveness of defribilliators in the 80s. He is also quite a prominent Australian artist. I am just waiting to find all the relevant sources before following through with those sections.[reply]

Haddons 07:10, 11 June 2007 (UTC) I have added more to the history of Dr. Kuchars involvement in the birth of Cardiology in australia. Its a long weekend here, and I will add more over the next couple of days. It is my goal to add more to the Victor Chang and Fiona Coote pages, as well as add and expand to the other forfathers of Australian Heart research.[reply]

I'll strongly suggest shortening his paper list to the one or two most notable. This is not the place to list his CV. --User:RandomHumanoid^(talk) 07:12, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Haddons 07:20, 11 June 2007 (UTC) no worries, im not trying to have him run for president! i just wanted to initially (before i flesh out the more in depth stuff) ensure that his contribution to the field was clear. Im new to writing for Wiki so it may take me some time to "clean" it out. Should i rather link to some page with his publications? or suggest medline/ovid/pubmed?[reply]

You could provide a link to his publications; just be sure it isn't to a subscription based site. Also, I think you provide far too much personal info. On the one hand, it is not notable, i.e., nobody is likely to care; on the other hand, it is also revealing far too much private information. --User:RandomHumanoid^(talk) 07:25, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Haddons 07:59, 11 June 2007 (UTC) ill chase down all the links, may take me a couple of days. The personal info is from a couple of articles in the news/tv. i have to run, but ill delete what isnt in the newspaper articles in the next couple of days.[reply]

Haddons 08:02, 11 June 2007 (UTC) what do i do about the deletion tag?[reply]
