Notability of Flashinpon's Quest

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Flashinpon's Quest, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Flashinpon's Quest seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Flashinpon's Quest, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Copied from the Flashinpon's Quest talk page for your convenience: I'm pretty new to wikipedia, but I dont think any discussion of RPG's is complete without mention of the underground RPGmaking by the gamers themselves (my own username is taken from the Flashinpon's Quest series. Other notables are Final Fallacy and the Al's Spam Search saga) I do intend to linkback to the main RPG article eventually, as well as do a full article on gamer-generated content, linking individual game summaries to that article. As I said I'm pretty new to this so it'll probably take it awhile but I'd appreciate nobody deleting my pages while I'm learning to make 'em... Flashinpon (talk) 00:32, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps before you embark upon your program, you should check out our policies: start with WP:Your first article, the notability policy, the policy on reliable sources, the one on conflict of interest and, in a while, Wikipedia:Why was my article deleted?. I'll copy this over to your user talk page so you will have it as a reference. Accounting4Taste:talk 02:31, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You may also find useful information and knowledgeable collaborators at Wikipedia:WikiProject Games. Check it out. If you have any questions about Wikipedia policy or anything else, you can leave me a note. Accounting4Taste:talk 02:32, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If I hadn't been acting in good faith, I would have already deleted the article in question on sight instead of trying to help you by pointing you towards the various Wikipedia policies and groups that I felt could benefit you. And if I was a "bully", I'd go and delete it now, because you haven't advanced any argument to accompany the "hangon" tag that will save it. But since you don't feel I've helped you, then I'll step back and let you go your own way. Accounting4Taste:talk 02:45, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've declined the speedy-delete request on your article, purely because of the claim that it's being serialised by Tor. However, I can find no evidence that this is actually true, and unless you can provide some convincing evidence of this, it will certainly be deleted fairly soon via the Articles for Deletion process. — iridescent 02:51, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
