Speedy deletion nomination of Celsius 7
editA tag has been placed on Celsius 7, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia for multiple reasons. Please see the page to see the reasons. If the page has since been deleted, you can ask me the reasons by leaving a message on my user talk page.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted.

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.

The article Jason Michael Paul 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. reddogsix (talk) 01:50, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
Nomination of Jason Michael Paul for deletion
editA discussion is taking place as to whether the article Jason Michael Paul is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jason Michael Paul until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. reddogsix (talk) 05:21, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

editDo not remove Biographies of Living Persons prods from articles without addressing the issue, as you did with Jason Michael Paul. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the respective talk page instead. Thank you. reddogsix (talk) 06:43, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue removing Biographies of Living Persons prods without addressing the issue, as you did with Jason Michael Paul, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. reddogsix (talk) 06:45, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
I will help you to keep Jason Michael Paul article
editI note your good faith article on Jason Michael Paul article. I am an experienced Wikipedia editor. I would like to help you keep the article. (I am also a dancer/choroegrapher who produces avant gard operas and drumming and dance festivals.)
If you go to this link[1], you will find a bunch of news articles.
Writing a good Wikipedia article takes alot of work. You appear to already have done alot of work, but you still have the part of the work called "sourcing" to do. Wikipedia requires all sentences in it to have a reliable and verifiable source. This list of news articles is a list of sources you can use.
What you need to do is read the reviews and pull out sentences that support any sentence in the article you wrote. Then you have to put that in as a footnote. You were on the right track by providing links as you did in the article.
When you have the first supporting sentence located (or first few such sentences), like something that says Paul is a producer, or says what he produced, or who he worked with, let me know by starting a section on my talk page, and I will tell you where to go from there.
Sometimes it seems like everyone at Wikipedia wants to delete valid information, but the best rule at Wikipedia is called "Assume Good Faith", or AGF. Assume that the people who now say they want to delete your article just think you are putting up stuff that you made up in order to self promote, when in fact from the news sources what you did is write a pretty good article with good information. Now all we have to do is find recognized reliable sources for that information, and the article will be fully referenced. 06:05, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
Help restoring Celsius 7 article
editIs this the Celsius 7 you wanted to write an article about? - "Alameda Sun - Oct 7, 2011 - In high school, Alameda's own Jacob Battersby, aka Celsius 7, was an aspiring rapper"
After we get the Jason Michael Paul article kept up, we can work on restoring the Celsius 7 article. PPdd (talk) 06:09, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
