AfD nomination of Harry Lintsen

I have nominated Harry Lintsen, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Harry Lintsen. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Thanks for deleting my Wiki

Dear Fvw,

I am not so pleased with the fact that two of my Wiki-entries were deleted faster than I could finish my lunch. I would really appreciate some feedback on what was wrong, missing, or lacking on/in my entry, before it was deleted permanently. If A7 applies to these biographies (Johan Schot & Harry Lintsen), a lot of other biographies and entries could be deleted from the Wiki as well.

Hi, Please have a look at WP:BIO for more information on our notability requirement. You are welcome to recreate the articles in question as long as you show how the articles' subjects meet these requirements by providing references. Thanks, --fvw* 12:13, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Better like this? Otherwise I'll have to more work. Best, Vincent

Hi Vincent, for academics, have a look at WP:ACADEMICS. The Lintsen article is not going to be deleted (that nomination really was misguided), that article was a good addition. (Can't say anything about the deleted ones, obviously). I will place a "welcome" tag at the top of this page, it contains links to some useful articles. Don't let yourself be discouraged by the deletions, you'll get the hang of it soon enough! BTW, don't forget to sign your posts on talk pages by putting --~~~~ at the end of your posts (or bu clicking the signature icon in the line above the edit window. Happy editing! --Crusio (talk) 20:25, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
