The article James Lipuma has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it did 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 indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:48, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

How to get a permanent article up

Could someone please let me know exactly what I need to do to justify a page's creation. The page I'm looking to put up concerns one of the professor's at the New Jersey Institute of Technology Jray087 (talk) 22:20, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Please browse WP:Notability, Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons, Wikipedia:Reliable sources and Wikipedia:Reliable source examples. Cheers. Mion (talk) 22:54, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

• I agree. Also, you should write the article first (including sources showing this person's notability) before posting it. An empty or "placeholder" article like the one you originally posted is likely to be deleted quickly. NawlinWiki (talk) 01:45, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for the help. Is an article put up mostly done sufficient? I don't have all the information necessary as it's a group effort.

Depends, best start is to create the article in your own space like User talk:Jray087/Testpage. Mion (talk) 02:26, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Noscriptlogo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Noscriptlogo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

• I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
• I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
• If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
• To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
• If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:28, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
