Welcome!

Hello, PRangerLuv, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like The Ranger$, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on The Ranger$ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Your hangon tag re: Ranger$ page

[edit]

Hi!

Just a note that a hangon tag by itself does nothing. Your article is riddled with spelling and grammar errors, one reason, I believe, it was originally tagged. A hangon tag means you are trying to gather good reliable references (not YouTube, blogs, or things like that. Stick with recognized reliable news sources - see WP:RELIABLE) and actively working to try and improve the article so it won't get deleted.

Personal knowledge is not acceptable, either. See WP:OR. All claims must be sourced to a reliable (there's that word again!) source.

We're not trying to censor you or keep your group out of Wikipedia. We're trying to maintain a standard here. We appreciate your contributions, but they must conform to the standards set in WP:MOS, our Manual of Style.

Don't let this deter you from contributing. As an editor on the Jerkin' page, I've thought that the Ranger$ should have an entry, but I don't know enough about them to contribute anything. Keep trying. If you would like help, please let me know.
