Contested deletion[edit]

please why is this page threatened to be deleted and how can i rectify it. Thank you

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it is an article for a living and well known actor. The reason you see multiple edit is because making sure it was only one article that was created and i am new to wikipedia. I would also appreciate your feedback. cheers (Inehita (talk) 16:13, 10 September 2017 (UTC))[reply]

The issue is whether there's a credible assertion of significance. If he's been nominated for (or won) an award, please provide a reliable source that he has—not just a blog post. —C.Fred (talk) 16:36, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you i will do that. Just citations or links?Inehita (talk) 16:40, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Inehita: A link to an online source would allow us to verify the claim quicker and, if applicable, remove the speedy deletion tag. —C.Fred (talk) 16:41, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

i just included a link, how many shawn faqua articles can you see. i only wnt to retain the one with references not the plain one. and i cant seem to upload a picture. Inehita (talk) 16:52, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Inehita: I never saw a direct link to a reliable source. However, I was able to chase a source from the 10th AMAA article; because of that, I've removed the speedy deletion tag. —C.Fred (talk) 16:54, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

please can whoever stop editing the article, you are amking it harder for me to put my thoughts done. kindly tell me your suggestions her. thank youInehita (talk) 17:31, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Inehita: First, one of the edits was to remove images that violate copyright from the article. That was correctly done as quickly as possible. Second, remember that article editing is collaborative. When you recreated the article in the main encyclopedia, instead of working on it in draft space, you opened the floodgates to having other editors join in the effort to improve the article. If you're doing a major overhaul, there is a template you can add—{{Under construction}}—that will alert other editors and ask them to give space, but even that wouldn't have stopped the removal of the copyvios (which would have been removed just as quickly even on the draft version). —C.Fred (talk) 14:20, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
