Speedy deletion nomination of Sammie Akporaro
[edit]Hello BlackBoxRecorder,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Sammie Akporaro for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Vanjagenije (talk) 14:50, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Creating multiple articles
[edit]Your article on Samuel Akporaro has been nominated for deletion because there is no indication that he (you) is notable. The solution to this problem is to provide some indication that we are wrong; that this person is, in fact, notable, by providing evidence that some third party somewhere has written about him. The solution is not to create mutliple articles at different titles, hoping that one of them will eventually stick. So far, I have noted that you have created
- Samuel Akporaro (the proper title as the simple, unadorned name of this person)
- Sammie Akporaro
- Hon. Samuel Akporaro
- Sir. Samuel Akporaro
- Samuel Akporaro E C
- Samuel Akporaro (Snr.)
With the exception of the last, all articles have been changed to redirects to Samuel Akporaro. If that article is deleted (as appears likely), all redirects to it will also be deleted. Concentrate on addressing the problems with the Samuel Akporaro article (keeping in mind Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy), rather than on promulgating more poor quality articles.

- You created one more article, "Samuel E. Akporaro". Please stop. Creating multiple articles on the same subject and with the same content is considered WP:Disruptive editing and you are likely to be WP:blocked if you continue to do that. Vanjagenije (talk) 20:56, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
