Vikki Thomas
[edit]Your new article doesn't really indicate that Ms Thomas meets the notability criteria for biographies necessary for inclusion at Wikipedia. The only references which have been provided are from various "profile" sites which she or her agent surely had a hand in creating. Several of the credits (including appearances on BBC's Cowboy Trap or Make My Day) cannot be verified at all, whereas the other credits seem fairly minor. She seems more notable as a pin-up girl, but that doesn't appear the biography you wish to write. (You must be careful, however, because if the article is not deleted, any and all users will be able to add any and all verifiable information to the article, even if it is information Ms Thomas would wish to put behind her.)
If you can add more references to reliable sources, that would be great. Otherwise, I fear the article may well be deleted. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:55, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
The article Jay James Picton 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. ttonyb (talk) 19:31, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Jay James Picton
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Jay James Picton requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Worm 12:48, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Nomination of Vikki Thomas for deletion
[edit]A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Vikki Thomas is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vikki Thomas (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Geoff | Who, me? 21:02, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
