Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Addison James Forbes requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. 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.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Interested in cricket? We have a "WikiProject" for you!

Hi Ajforbes,

The Wikipedia page (called an "article" in Wikipedia jargon) that it seems you might have written about yourself has been deleted. Click on Wikipedia:Autobiography to see more about this.

You might be interested in the Wikipedia Cricket project.

There is always plenty to do there: click on Category:Cricket articles needing attention and the "to do" list to get started. Please let me know if you have any questions about this, or Wikipedia in general.
