The article Jessica schmitt has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Xtzou (Talk) 19:48, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
Re: Jessica Schmitt
[edit]Hi there, I thought I would write you a quick note about the page you created called Jessica schmitt. The reason it is up for deletion is because the article does not assert enough notability. You can read about what is considered notable for Olympic athletics here: Wikipedia:Notability (sports) in section 7. In its current state, your article only asserts that Ms. Schmitt only competed in the trials. Wikipedia:Notability (sports) says "Athletes from any sport are considered notable if they have competed at either the Summer or Winter, Olympic or Paralympic Games." If Ms. Schmitt has done so, please add the {{hangon}} tag to the page under the speedy deletion tag and then mention that on the article's talk page. If I can do anything to help you, leave a message on my talk page. Thanks --Non-Dropframe talk 19:36, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Jessica schmitt
[edit]Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Jessica schmitt, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Jessica schmitt, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. ToxicWasteGrounds 19:48, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
Just an FYI
[edit]This person you have created the page for isn't an Olympian, they are just a member of a small sporting team. It meets db-hoax as of the information you have implemented but it would have met db-person anyway. Please just bear this in mind. ToxicWasteGrounds 19:54, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
The article Jessica schmitt has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Competed in Olympic trials, but didn't make the team. No other claim to notability, thus fails WP:ATH
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Blueboy96 20:03, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

File source problem with File:JessicaSchmitt.jpg
[edit]Thank you for uploading File:JessicaSchmitt.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 05:58, 7 May 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7.
