Nutjobsinc[edit]

You recently created the page Nutjobsinc. From what I can tell, it is a name you have given to the video production you and your friends have been making. These kind of groups and articles do not meet wikipedias notability guidelines and it will very soon be proposed for deletion (in which the article will last a couple of days while people decide what to do with it or how to improve it) or speedy deletion (in which it could be deleted at any time, from five minutes from now to five days from now). A million other wikipedia users will tell you this, but check out the Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not page, that will give you a fair idea of which pages will be deleted and which ones will be kept.

I feel fairly confident that someone will tag the page for speedy deletion very soon. Rather than creating pages that will be deleted, can I recommend that create or edit pages on something that you know is notable and something you know about. Maybe you know a lot about James Bond movies, or Pokemon, or the college you go to in Manchester. There are many things you can do on wikipedia that can relate to your hobbies and interests, and just like picking at a scab it can become a time consuming and satisfying activity. Although I feel the article you created has no notability for wikipedia, I did feel you writing style was very intelligent, easy to read and thoroughly thought out. Wikipedia could really use skills like yours for creating new content and articles.

And one last thing. You may find that pages you create or edits you make will be deleted, but that is fine, you do not get punished for deleted pages, so i encourage you to create any pages that you feel meet the Wikipedia:Notability guidelines. As long as you follow the rules and act in good faith, you can do whatever you like! JayKeaton 18:54, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
