Speedy deletion nomination of Colonel Thomas Gay

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Colonel Thomas Gay requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. BigDwiki (talk) 04:14, 17 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Nomination for CSD

edit

I've decided to nominate your article The Alberta Yoga Teacher Training College for deletion because the company it describes is not remarkable. CarnivorousBunny (talk) 23:40, 7 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Important: The article did not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, so Malik Shabazz has changed the article to a deletion via PROD. You may remove the notice if you believe that the article should not be deleted, but make note that I may pursue an AfD. — Carnivorous Bunny (talk) 14:15, 8 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
