Proposed deletion of Shannon sylvia

The article Shannon sylvia 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.

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 ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Suggestion: Draft your article at Articles for Creation

Hi! Thanks for seeking out help at the Teahouse. I see that you're having some trouble creating an article. This is common for new topics and very common for those who bring a professional relationship to the subject. My best advice is to first, read this page: WP:PSCOI and second use the Articles for Creation review process: WP:WIZGO. Follow those two steps and your chance of success should rise dramatically.
