Proposed deletion of Marzanna Farnicka[edit]

The article Marzanna Farnicka has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This article seems to fail Wikipedia:Notability (academics). Wikipedia is not a host for resumes.

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. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 16:29, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP is not a problem here. The requirement that all articles must pass is Wikipedia:Notability. In this case supplementary rules are detailed on Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) and the already mentioned Wikipedia:Notability (academics). You need to expand the article to prove that the subject is notable, then either you or I will remove the proposed deletion tag. If you remove it but I a not in agreement, we will hold a wider community discussion about this, with more editors participating. PS. Have you completed Wikipedia:Tutorial yet? It can teach you some useful tricks. Including how to sign your talk posts. Cheers, --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 19:17, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's good to base one's work on other articles, but Douglas P. Fry is not a very good template (as indicated by the warning templates on the top). To save your article, you need to prove notability; is there anything in Wikipedia:Notability (academics) that is unclear? If the subject does not pass those criteria (or any other notability criteria), they cannot have a page on Wikipedia. Through your work does not have to be wasted, we can userfy it - move it to your sandbox - so you could improve it over the years, and move it back to the main space once the subject becomes notable. You could also try to create the subject biography at Polish Wikipedia (it is more lenient). Finally, I would also note that you may want to gain experience in editing Wikipedia by tackling articles other than biographies of contemporary scholars. It is, I am afraid, discouraging to start one's adventure with Wikipedia and have your work threatened, but this often happens when people try to create articles about themselves, their friends or coworkers, without having gained experience in less problematic areas (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest for more on why this is a problematic). There are many core encyclopedic subjects that need to be improved; if your field is psychology, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Psychology and [1], or if you are interested in Poland-related topics, I invite you to Wikipedia:WikiProject Poland. After few months of gaining experience editing other articles you may be better able to see what edits, if any, can be done to the Marzanna Farnicka article to improve it. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 17:23, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I see that the article was deleted. I want to remind you that you can get a copy in your sandbox restored per WP:USERFY. Please let me know if you need further assistance. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 15:43, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
