I feel that Ralp Pagano is an important chef to the culinary industry. Just as one can search for Tom Cruise and find out about all his movies and bio. I feel that this is just as significant. Please explain to me what needs to be done to make it more clear to me as to whatshould be addressed about him. Thank you - Noah
The article in question is basically a cut and paste article. It is not an encyclopedic article. None of the other runners-up have their own articles. Most of the winners of Hell's Kitchen do not have their own pages either. The exceptions being Christina Machamer,(season 4) and Danny Veltri. Heather West, Rock Harper and Michael Wray do not have articles of their own. There is no reason why a runner-up should. If this article is to be kept it really needs to be cleaned up. Right now it is nothing but a publicity piece.
You have also removed the speedy deletion notice. I think that is supposed to stay up there for I will put it back up and will not remove your hang on tag.Tlatseg (talk) 01:45, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
