The article Mike Beedle has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. andy (talk) 10:02, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
Article deletion
editHello Mike. The article about you was deleted because it was tagged (not by myself) through the WP:BLPPROD system as it was a biography of a living person that was unreferenced. These articles are automatically tagged for deletion due to concerns about inaccurate information. The article can be restored from the version that was deleted if references proving notability (generally references from the media or books published by unrelated people) are provided, but unfortunately the rules on WP:Conflict of Interest pretty much rule you out of writing an article about yourself (the article was also tagged for this shortly before deletion).
