Speedy deletion nomination of W.O. Saunders

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 W.O. Saunders 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.

If you think that your page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer instead to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you prefer to change your username rather than create a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you.

Query about username change

Hello, NENCGuy. You were given a username block, but were unblocked on the basis of an unblock request stating that you would request a change of username to jhsnowden3. Instead, you requested a change of username to NENCGuy, saying in the request "Current username appears to be a company/group name". On the face of it, it seems obvious that, if "Nencnews" refers to a company, then "NENCGuy" probably refers to the same company. My instinct was to re-block, but before doing so I thought it best to ask you whether there is some good reason, that I have not realised, why your new username should be accepted.

Response to JamesBWatson

After reading through several articles, and conversations regarding change of usernames, I reconsidered my name request on the grounds that the name jhsnowden3 would reveal too much about me personally. I live in Northeastern (NE) North Carolina(NC) and I am male (Guy), I decided to alter the name change to NENCGuy. I have not heard from SmartSE, the administrator who placed the original block on my prior name Nencnews. I'm just trying to update the Wiki sections on our local community, nothing more. If you doubt my sincerity, please read the contributions I have made to date. NENCGuy (talk) 09:56, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
