Hello, Dobbsfr, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Speedy deletion of "Dobbs Franks"[edit]

A page you created, Dobbs Franks, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Jake Wartenberg^Talk 03:52, 12 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dobbs Franks[edit]

I saw your question concerning the deleted article. Wikipedia is not a place to post your resume and contact information: it is considered advertising, and will be deleted immediately. All articles on individuals must meet our notability criteria: in this case, please refer to WP:MUSIC for inclusion criteria. Also, you appear to have a conflict of interest, which means that you are strongly discouraged from writing about yourself. Acroterion _(talk) 04:09, 12 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
