A tag has been placed on Raphael Lataster, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Dåvid Fuchs (talk / contribs) 01:49, 3 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Recreating the article is insufficient: it currently violates WP:ADVERT, WP:BLP, and various other policies. Also, please sign your username to talk page posts, using ~~~~. Thank you. Michaelbusch 22:18, 24 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Curious.

You wouldn't happen to be Kim, would you? That would mean that you probably know Raphael. As such, I need to strongly suggest that you hold off on putting in links to Lataster's site as well as working on his bio. Under Wikipedia policy, it's a conflict of interest and might get you banned for a spell if you run across an Admin who isn't in a good mood, although I'm certain that you're doing it with the best intentions. Also, please email me at your earliest convenience as I have some important things to bring to your attention that I would rather not discuss here. אמר Steve Caruso 07:45, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I also realize that you may not be Kim. In that event, please email me anyways as I still have similar things that I would like to discuss. אמר Steve Caruso 07:47, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
