Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means, and on Notability (people) for more detail. Also, it must be verifiable from reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted.

For advice about creating articles, read the Introduction and the Guide to creating your first article.
You should not write articles about yourself, your band, your client, your boss or your best friend - that's a conflict of interest.
Wikipedia is not an advertising service. Before writing about your own organization, read FAQ/Organizations.
For experiments, please use the sandbox.

Your article Gabriel Akon

Hi. You will see from the links in the Welcome paragraph above that one of Wikipedia's key content policies is Verifiability: if you read that policy, you will see that it goes so far as to say: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth". I have spent some time searching, but I can find nothing to confirm what your article says. Unless you can provide some references to reliable sources (which excludes sites like Myspace where anyone can post what he likes), your article is likely to be nominated for deletion.

Proposed deletion of Gabriel Akon

The article Gabriel Akon has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

almost certain hoax, searches find no confirmation, see talk page.

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. JohnCD (talk) 07:54, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
