The article Architect Jaspreet Singh has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the 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.

Just wanted to let you know that I saw that you created the new article Architect Jaspreet Singh--However, I noticed there are some holes that may need filling: the references in the article do not follow Wikipedia guidelines. There is a tutorial on formatting citations at Wikipedia:Referencing. It would be great if you could also Wikify the related article Sodhi. Jipinghe (talk) 01:38, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Jaspreet Singh
[edit]Hi there, I have seen your efforts and frustration concerning the Jaspreet Singh article. Please note that an independent administrator makes the final decision, based on all the evidence provided - it isn't just a vote, and the notability guideline (not policy) states that you require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. It is a judgement call as to what qualifies as to "significant coverage" and also note that it says sources, plural. If the article gets deleted, it may be because architects rarely get much coverage, compared to other professions, so it is not a criticism of his work or an insult to him - there must be hundreds of thousands of people in Australia's history doing fantastic, important and significant work, but there are less than 40,000 people in Category:Australian people. Most of us simply aren't notable enough for this encyclopedia, even if we have received some coverage somewhere. I hope you don't get too discouraged by this, and stick around and help out on other articles that you are knowledgeable about. There are thousands of stubs that could be expanded or articles to be improved. Regards, The-Pope (talk) 16:05, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
