Speedy deletion nomination of Dan Knight Director edit

 

A tag has been placed on Dan Knight Director 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:32, 25 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I was simply adding data that i thought was in the public interest- i am a music video director that has worked with acts and has been referenced a number of times on wikipedia and i wanted to add my own page- there is another Dan Knight (Composer) on the site who seems to get confused with me. I will certainly re-read the guidelines and add links to articles explaining why i should be on wikipedia. This was certainly not an attempt to spam or false promotion- just filling in some blanks.

Decline reason:

Unfortunately, that kind of editing isn't allowed here, since writing an article about yourself raises conflict of interest concerns. Blueboy96 21:35, 3 November 2009 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I understand the reasons why i was blocked and won't try and post in the same way again. My intentions certainly aren't malicious and would appreciate being unblocked. Thanks in advance. Dan
