Speedy deletion nomination of Marc Lanteri

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 Marc Lanteri 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.

Proposed deletion of Marc Lanteri

The article Marc Lanteri has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has 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 seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Hi Papaverablu. The article has a reprieve from deletion for seven days, during which time reliable sources like newspapers, books and magazines need to be used to cite facts in the article. On the talk page you said: "Marc Lanteri himself is easily searchable by any search engine and his professional work will appear within many sources including the Michelin Guide, TripAdvisor, LinkedIn, Facebook", but Google hits, user-contributed sites and social media cannot be used to verify anything on Wikipedia. You say you took that picture - so please declare what association you have with Lanteri, see WP:COI. I hope you will consider writing about other topics you don't have a direct interest in, to help you learn the ropes here. Fences&Windows 19:30, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
