Speedy deletion nomination of Peter Nigrini

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 Peter Nigrini 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 or group of people, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

I will continue to work on this article as a draft. In my original response to the article being tagged for deletion, I provided a number of examples of other personalities of similar stature that do have similar wikipedia pages. The reason I chose this topic was specifically because it seems the this individual has a similar degree of stature in the industry as a number of other people who have wikipedia pages. I would appreciate any input Velella or others might have on what in this case defines notability. My thought was that the number of awards and nominations and lecturing on the topic at an internationally recognized institution met the threshold of notability. Specifically is the question of notability a problem of citations or is it that you feel that there is not a substantial enough level of achievement in the field. Any input from more experienced contributors is welcome. Makersoftheater (talk) 19:19, 27 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
