Speedy deletion of Echthighern

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Echthighern requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. 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, 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 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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.

why?

Why is it that you want to delete your article Echthighern mac Cennétig. As reviewing administrator, I held off a bit until I could check with you. DGG ( talk ) 21:39, 12 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

I have traced my family ancestry to another person and so am no longer motivated to continue research. There is really very little more to say about this person. However, i do have an image to upload. Michael ohearn (talk) 01:35, 14 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

I have added image and two additional links from other article. Michael ohearn (talk) 02:20, 14 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

since we're not a genealogy site, but an encyclopedia , and he is of some historic importance, we go by the importance, so I'm glad I spotted it and we'll get to keep it. I appreciate your explanation and assistance. DGG ( talk ) 04:06, 19 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
