Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you have added a name to the list of notable people at ***ARTICLE NAME***. Any names added to these lists must be notable by Wikipedia's standards (generally speaking, this means they have been the subject of multiple published secondary sources which are reliable and independent of the subject. This usually includes things like detailed coverage about the subject in newspaper articles, magazines, and books. As a general rule, a notable person will also have a seperate Wikipedia article about them.
Because the name that you have added to the list does not appear to meet these notability guidelines, I have removed it from the article. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me by leaving a message at my talk page. You can also find more information about contributing to Wikipedia at our Welcome page. Happy editing!

Welcome to Wikipedia[edit]
Hi again! I sent you an email a moment ago to welcome you to Wikipedia, and mentioned that I'd pass on a couple of links that I found helpful as a new editor. Here they are:
- The new contributors' help page
- The helpdesk, where you can ask questions about how to use Wikipedia, and browse through the questions that others have asked
- The Wikipedia Cheatsheet, a simple guide to some basic formatting commands (like making bold or italic text).
I hope you have a great time here at Wikipedia. Please feel free to contact me if you need any help at all editing or finding your way around. You've got my email address now, or you can drop me a note at my talk page.
