Proposed deletion of Dave VanHoose

The article Dave VanHoose has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable speaker. All the references are from sites advertising him. I was unable to find any articles that aren't advertising him and don't simply mention him in passing.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Anastasia - duplicate of existing neutral page

Hi, please take a look at Anastasia_International if you would like to contribute on the topic.

Speedy deletion nomination of AnastasiaDate

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on AnastasiaDate, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. MidnightAmbler (talk) 06:48, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of The Party's Over: How the Extreme Right Hijacked the GOP and I Became a Democrat

Hello HarryandDumble,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged The Party's Over: How the Extreme Right Hijacked the GOP and I Became a Democrat for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Verdict78 (talk) 16:03, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
