Speedy deletion of William J. Flanagan

A tag has been placed on William J. Flanagan 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 notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Dennis Brown (talk) 21:05, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article The Wettest County in the World (novel) is no longer up for nomination for deletion on Wikipedia, because I added references from reliable publications in order to WP:V verify the information which is contained in the article. Often, for pop media, in order to ensure that the work belongs on Wikipedia, you need to include reviews from credible sources. Also, after my expansion, I nominated the article to be in the Did you know section of the front page. If you would like to see the nomination, check it out at the nomination page. Your name will be associated with the DYK credit because you were the creater! This is a perfect example of how collaborative editing should work 1 person starts something and the next people that come along expand it as well :) Best wishes!

DYK for The Wettest County in the World

On 3 January 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article The Wettest County in the World, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that novelist Matt Bondurant is the grandson of one of the main characters portrayed in his 2008 novel, The Wettest County in the World? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
