I have played tens of thousands of them and well over 1,000,000 hands of poker. I wish you luck in your quest but making a comment like 'if you don't know enough about poker to...' does not apply to me. The article should not be explaining to people why they should use the product - that is what advertising is for. The PokerTracker article does not explain to people why they should use PokerTracker, it just explains what PokerTracker is. Going into in-depth discussion about the nature of an SNG is not relevant to that article. As I said, that is what internal links are for.

| I removed your speedy deletion tag from this article because it didn't specify one of the deletion categories at ]. You mention notability in the edit summary, so perhaps speedy category A7, "no indication of importance" is the closest fit, but it also says, "The criterion does not apply to any article that makes any credible claim of significance or importance". In this case, the article makes the claim that she's significant because of her "third highest woman at the WSOP" ranking. I've put a "proposed deletion" tag on it, so if no-one objects it'll be deleted in 7 days, but if someone removes that tag it'll need to be taken to ]. ] (]) 22:06, 18 January 2010 (UTC) | |||
| :I'm not good with wiki procedure but I know that being the 3rd woman remaining in one single poker tournament certainly doesn't qualify you for inclusion. I believe it is something along the lines of 'notability because of one event and not likely to be notable again' or something - but thanks. I'll address this later if somebody removes the tag. ] (]) 22:46, 18 January 2010 (UTC) | |||
| ::Sure, it'd probably get deleted at AFD if someone removes the tag. Speedies only get approved if they meet one of the criteria at ], otherwise an admin will turn it down. For notability, you can only get articles speedy deleted if they make (1) no statement of significance at all, or (2) if the statement isn't credible, like an article on some schoolkid claiming he's the President. Anything that ''looks'' like a statement of significance will get the speedy turned down, because the single admin deleting as a speedy can't really be relied on to judge whether "3rd woman remaining at WSOP" means she's notable in poker terms, and it has to go to a deletion discussion. The speedies are only for uncontroversial deletions, where a single admin can be trusted to make the call. ] (]) 23:20, 18 January 2010 (UTC) | |||

| ::::Speedy deletion due to A7 require no claim to significance---a much lower threshold than ]. An article can obviously fail notability, but if there is a claim to significance it can't be deleted. This is to afford the author/creator/overseers a chance to expand the article and show that there is enough to warrant keeping.---''']''' '']'' 19:18, 23 January 2010 (UTC) | |||
| == Deletions == | |||
| Take this as friendly advice, as that is the spirity is being offered... I say that because I don't know if that intention will come accross in text. Generally, it is considered good form to notify the respective projects when nominating an article for deletion---especially, if you are involved with those projects. I know that you and 2005 don't see eye to eye, but your failure to notify the project may be perceived negatively. I know that your intention is to help clean up the project, but you don't want to make it easy for 2005 to peg you as an obstructionist.---''']''' '']'' 19:16, 23 January 2010 (UTC) | |||
| :What do you mean by 'project'? Where should I be letting people know? I am not trying to sneak anything by anybody - I think the more eyeballs the better, particularly if they know about poker. I'm just not aware of procedure. Thanks. ] (]) 19:50, 23 January 2010 (UTC) | |||
| ::Balloonman is likely referring to Wikiprojects, which are usually based on topic areas or particular tasks. On the talk pages of most articles, there will be Wikiproject tags. At ], you will find links to Wikiproject Biography, Wikiproject Gambling, and Wikiproject Poker. Anyone is welcome to post on their talk pages. It's not a requirement to notify them, but it is a reasonable step and will bring the issue to the attention of more editors. It's also advisable if you need more eyes familiar with the subject on a discussion. ] (]) 20:11, 23 January 2010 (UTC) | |||
| :::When you do notify the various projects, you also want to leave a note on the AFD saying that you've done so. That way it is not considered ]ing. Again, the goal of AFD is to get rid of the bad articles... wether that is through deletion or by getting somebody to clean them up/work on them, it doesn't matter. By notifying the projects you afford people who care a chance to improve the article. Like the article on Ness. In its current shape it is a clear deletion IMO. If there is more to her, then now is the chance for people to crawl out of the wood work and prove that by improving the article.---''']''' '']'' 20:43, 23 January 2010 (UTC) | |||

| :I'm unclear on why you are asking me for assistance - I've never made an entry on that talk page or edited the article that I can recall.
