Speedy deletion of Jamie Hamilton (motorcycle racer)[edit]

A tag has been placed on Jamie Hamilton (motorcycle racer) 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 notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Plrk (talk) 19:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I would like to appeal blocking my account. My intention is not to promote the company I work for at all and merely chose that username because I was at work with a colleague when I created it and that was the first name that sprung to mind. However I am happy to change the account name to personalise it. Please could I change it to Wiss9890? Also in regards to the article I wrote about Jamie Hamilton you mentioned that I wrote "Hamilton rides for MSS Colchester Kawasaki". I wasnt trying to promote the team, merely give indication of his current bike. If you look at James Toselands page it mentions him riding for Castrol Honda's team, Paul Birds's Vimto sponsered team, the GSE team, the Fila Ducati team, the Winston Ten Kate Racing Honda team amongst others. However if you still object to Jamie's official team name being mentioned I am happy to remove it and just note that the bike he rides is a Kawasaki.

Decline reason:

I have adjusted the block so you can create a new account. Just register again as Wiss9890. — Selket ^Talk 16:52, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
