Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Vivmetz, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Lance Metz, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.
Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

The article Lance Metz has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
There is nothing on Lance Metz in the main climbing media/magazines (i.e he is not notable as a climber), and nothing on Lance Metz in the national South African media (i.e. he is not notable on a South African level). There are a handful of blogs (none of which are WP:RS) noting his ascent of Everest, but outside of recording the climb, he is not in himself a notable figure with any SIGCOV (i.e. thousands of people are now climbing Everest). His career is now over, and no record of him climbing now, so will not survive long-term as an article.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
