Speedy deletion of Coco solid

A tag has been placed on Coco solid 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.

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.

Speedy deletion of Coco solid reply left on Anthony's talk page

Hi Anthony

Sorry to see you have deleted the COCO SOLID page quickly. It says that you don't think the listing is of high enough importance. Coco Solid is a top New Zealand musician who has been performing for many years. She has won a top musical award on New Zealand college radio. She has also recently received a significant song writing grant from the country's composer organisation APRA. Here are the references to what I have just explained.

http://www.amplifier.co.nz/news/33258/bnet-awards-winners.html - the bnet awards

http://www.apra.co.nz/html/news_item.php?id=6564&newsCat=s - the recent song writing award

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=10569342 - an article from New Zealand's biggest cities website refering to an up coming artist as sounding like Coco Solid.

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/news/article.cfm?c_id=6&objectid=10552915&pnum=0 - another New Zealand artist saying that Coco Solid is someone they look up to.

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=10533097 - an article about Coco Solid pressing a record

Please write back to explain what you think needs to be explained to restore the listing

Hi there! Coco_solid has been put up for a deletion vote instead of speed-deleted. You can witness and take part in the proceedings here: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Coco_solid. We refer to this process as "AfD." For what it's worth, I think that the links you included ought to prove notability and the article should be kept. -moritheil^Talk 22:33, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Coco solid has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \bmyspace\.com (links: http://www.myspace.com/bordermusic/, http://www.myspace.com/bordermusic/ (redirect from http://www.myspace.com/bordermusic/)).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 11:44, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hook Ups

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hook Ups requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=10881026. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "Click here to 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. —rybec 08:35, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
