From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Please read the instructions below before submitting a request.

Submitting a new request

[edit]

1. Click "Discussion" and then "New section" at the top of the page.

2. Type the name of the potential article in the subject box.

3. In the first paragraph, give some information about the subject as well as some links where this information is verified. (Just make sure there's more links than just the Myspace, Facebook, and/or Twitter page)

4. In the second paragraph, state a valid reason on why the subject deserves a Wikipedia page. Furthermore, state if they meet any criteria.

5. Sign your request with four tildes ~~~~ If I don't know who you are, you won't hear back from me and your article won't be created by me.

Checking the status of an approved request

[edit]

1. Click on the link provided in the response and be patient. Your article won't go up the day or even the week you request it. It will take time.

2. DO NOT edit the article yourself. If you do, I will stop working on it and you can fend for yourself against the people that will want to delete it. If you have a suggestion, contact me in the comment thread about your article or on my main talk page.

Debating a declined request

[edit]

1. Click "Discussion" and then "Edit" at the top of the page.

2. Find your request and my rejection notice.

3. Under my note, type an extra colon, and add your two cents.

Example

That's why you should create this page. ~~~~
:Sorry, I can't create pages about garage bands. Here's why. ~~~~
::We're not a garage band anymore. We've played at XYZ Festival and went on ABC Music Tour. ~~~~
