A tag has been placed on Pontus Andersson, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that
administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{
hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's
talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Pontus Andersson, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- Non-notable footballer.
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's
criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "
What Wikipedia is not" and
Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on
its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. ... discospinster talk 15:47, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. ... discospinster talk 23:11, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
Notability of Martin Hansen
A tag has been placed on Martin Hansen requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Jim Ward ( talk) 23:35, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Nathan Eccleston
A tag has been placed on Nathan Eccleston, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion.

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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hello Pontus Andersson: Welcome to Wikipedia. It's excellent that young people such as yourself choose to contribute to this great endeavor.
I see that you've added several biographical articles about Swedish footballers, including one about yourself. As these are all presently candidates for speedy deletion or churning through the Articles for Deletion process, I would gently suggest that you take a few minutes and review Wikipedia's policies on Biographies of Living Persons and notability of athletes. You might also want to take note of the community's strong discouragement concerning writing articles about yourself, as they are all but guaranteed to suffer neutral point of view and verifiability issues. I offer these suggestions constructively and hope you'll apply them to contribute excellent and appropriate material for many years to come. If you'd like to talk about this, just leave a note below and I'll see it. Regards, Jim Ward ( talk) 00:15, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
