Speedy deletion nomination of Larry Wardlow Jr edit

 

A tag has been placed on Larry Wardlow Jr 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.

May 2010 edit

  Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Larry Wardlow Jr. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you. JamesBWatson (talk) 22:38, 8 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

More to the point, Wikipedia doesn't typically carry articles on political candidates, except where those candidates are notable above and beyond being candidates for political office (such as where they've held previous offices or been notable in another context). We're quite happy to have a (neutral, well-sourced) article if and when they win the election. See WP:N for our notability guidelines and WP:POLITICIAN for special criteria relating to politicians. - DustFormsWords (talk) 01:48, 4 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
