There is no reason for a speedy deletion of Darrell Millar and he has not committed any copyright infringement. The slitherproductions page in question copied and pasted the bio and info about Darrell Millar and artist Automan.ca off his site www.darrellmillar.com. If anything slitherproductions is the one that has a copyright infringment and stole his quotes and bios written personally by Darrell Millar. Here is the material in question. This was written in word on my computer. Darrell Millar. Also the bio in online at the bands site here. http://www.darrellmillar.com/automanbio.htm

AUTOMAN.ca -- formed in 2002 by writing partners Darrell "DWaRf" Millar (vocals) and Carleton Lockhart (guitar) -- is a genuinely pure, 70's/80's influenced kick-ass 'rawk' band in the essence of Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC and others. Their distinctive, upbeat brand of modern classic rock can best be described as coming straight out of a music time capsule, yet it's altogether fresh, current and timeless.

Darrell -- a lifelong professional musician -- is internationally renown as the former drummer for the multi-million selling hard rock act KILLER DWARFS, as well as for Nikki Sixx produced southern rock act LAIDLAW. As one of the most high-profile and well-travelled drummers of the 80s-90s hard rock era, he's shared concert stages worldwide with the likes of Iron Maiden, Motley Crue, ZZTop, Pantera, Lynard Skynard and several others. In formulating AUTOMAN, he vacated the drums for frontman duties, and it's his high-energy, 'welcome-to-the-party!' persona that fuels AUTOMAN's performances both live and on record.

Carleton -- a master guitarist capable of playing all styles of Rock and Jazz -- has been mesmerizing musicians and fans alike for years on the independent circuit with his unique style of playing pick-less, left-handed and upside-down. Those who witness his stellar performances are astounded at his jaw-dropping techniques. Undoubtedly, Carleton's incomparable approach to guitar is a key ingredient of the AUTOMAN sound.

In 2004, AUTOMAN was rounded out with the additions of bassist John Fenton and drummer Adrian Cavan. Touring extensively throughout Southern Ontario has polished the band into a tight, highly entertaining professional act. Via thousands of hits to the band's various websites, they've amassed both local and worldwide recognition, which led to a successful run of AUTOMAN's 2005 debut "Test Drive X5/Auto-Motive" CD/DVD combo.

Their 2008 full-length CD release, entitled "Pocket Change"-- produced by Darrell, recorded in Toronto with engineer Adam Cree, mixed and co-produced in North Carolina by Greg Looper (Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers / Mudcrutch), mix engineered by Matt Horton (Matchbox 20), and mastered by Justin Shturtz at Sterling Sound in NYC -- is fueled by their first single "Back In The Sun", which is now available for radio.

Going 'old school' with just eight tracks of 'all killer, no filler!' -- from straight-forward, power chorded anthems ("Give An Inch, Take A Mile"), to party-hearty foot-stompers ("Milldog Blues", "Chasin My Tail"), to tangled-guitar toe-tappers ("Dig In Deep", "One Half Hard"), to pedal-to-the-metal rockers ("Drivin, Rockin, Lovin"), to radio-ready, 'can't-get-that-song-out-of-my-head' sing-a-longs ("Back In The Sun", "Cinnamon Rain") -- AUTOMAN's easy-on-the-senses, aurally-appealing sound will surely attract, and connect to, a wide-ranging audience fan base.

If your desire is for blues-based rock in its truest form, yet with it's own distinctive up-to-date qualities, then spare some time to check out AUTOMAN's "Pocket Change".

Hi, you can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~~~~ I deleted your recent article because it did not provide independent verifiable sources that it meets the notability guidelines or to enable the claimed facts to be verified. It also makes spammy claims unsupported by in-line references to independent sources, such as

• was released in 2009 to rave reviews.
• In other accolades if true, it's a fact, not an accolade

A tilde is the squiggle I've shown, on my keyboard it's shift #. You don't need to list every reference, but you do need to state how they meet the music notability guidelines, and to provide enough independent references to prove that notability claim. I have to say that in the original text there is little to show that they are notable enough Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:43, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

OK, if you can find the independent refs, I'll help with formatting etc Jimfbleak - talk to me? 19:30, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Automan.ca is a Canadian band founded in 2002 in Toronto by Darrell Dwarf Millar and Carleton Lockhart. This blues rooted Rock & Roll band is unusual due to the fact that Darrell Millar is a well established rock drummer world wide and is now off the drums and a Frontman/Singer/Songwriter for Automan.ca. He is the drummer and a founding member of the 80's metal band Killer Dwarfs 1983-2002 and drummer for southern rock band Laidlaw 1995-2002. Hooking up with Lockhart who is co-writer and plays a rare guitar style, left handed and strung upside down and pickless, the two penned songs and recorded all instruments for the EP/DVD Test Drive x 5/Automotive 2005. This was released via Unkledunk Records/Indie Pool. A band was built around this. John Fenton bass guitar and vocals, and Adrian Cavan drums were acquired. After several live performances in southern Ontario,a full length début record Pocket Change was recorded and released in 2009 and this time around tracked by all members. The label Unkledunk Records owned by Millar signed a distribution deal with Megaforce/Sony-Bmg for the Pocket Change release. The band toured Canada and parts of USA in 2010 including an opening slot with British metal band Iron Maiden in Winnipeg 30th. Also in other good fortune the track Milldog Blues off the Pocket Change release is heard in the Cuba Gooding, Jr movie The Hitlist release 2011. The actual name of the band is Automan.ca standing for Automan Canada to avoid copyright infringement of the 80's TV show Automan.

References

A problem now is that your references are unintelligible, they need a description, and should be moved in-line so we can see what is being referenced by each source. I've done that for the Cuba Gooding ref to show how its done. The language is also spammy, having a famous drummer doesn't make a band unique (Ringo? Karen Carpenter?) Self created pages like facebook, twitter and your own sites are not reliable sources, except perhaps for some basic history, since they are not objective. Needs a bit of work yet Jimfbleak - talk to me? 08:57, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

Not in a row, in-line. You'll see the little [1} after the Cuba Gooding text, and the {{reflist}} bit under the References heading lists all the in-line refs. Put them where they should go in the text between <ref> ref details here </ref> tags, and let reflist do the rest Jimfbleak - talk to me? 16:43, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

I've formatted a bit to standard wikipedia style, and added a few links to other articles. It's up to you to decide when to recreate the article Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:35, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Automan.ca requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.
