Speedy deletion nomination of Subject's last name (disambiguation)
[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 Subject's last name (disambiguation) 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 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 "Click here to 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, you can place a request here. freshacconci talk to me 02:32, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
- I've moved the page to Steve Tomasula, the proper name of the subject, and declined speedy deletion. But see below; the page is still being considered for deletion. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 05:21, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
The article Steve Tomasula has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created 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. The nominator also raised the following concern:
- All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.
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.

- Hello,
- I'm writing in regard to the proposed deletion of Steve Tomasula. The reason given is that it appears to have no references. If you look at the article, almost all of the facts do in fact have in-line references, all of them from "reliable sources." There are 25 in-line citations. For example, the fact of his place of birth came from the Afterword from a book published by the University of Chicago. All other references come from similar academic sources. I did not footnote his spouse (this came from a webpage). Do I need to document every line like this? In any case, it is not true that there "are no references." I've visited the "Referencing page" and this article seems to conform to this. if there are there particular sentences like the sentence about the spouse that need to be footnoted, does this warrant deleting the whole article? Thank you for your help. Sharee Dossier (talk) 17:37, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I think I accidentally started 2 articles on Steve Tomasula. One which has no sources that should be deleted. And one which was accepted. Can you clarify that this is what the above text string is referring to? Also, I'm afraid I started the disambiguation page by accident (wasn't sure what it was) so yes, that should probably be deleted. But as I understand it, the Steve Tomasula page with the references is good. (Please see it's talk page.) Thanks for the help. I think I know the Wiki protocol now so this won't happen again! Sorry for the duplicate efforts! Sharee Dossier (talk) 01:42, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
- I think the two articles, if both articles indeed existed, are now one and the same. --I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 04:38, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
- There was another one; it was deleted on January 11 because it was an unreferenced article on a living person: log entry. Yngvadottir (talk) 05:50, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
