Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia. To find out how to make useful contributions, take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means. Also, it must give independently verifiable sources. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted. Follow the links below to learn more:

To find out more about creating articles, read the Introduction and the Guide to creating your first article.
You should not write articles about yourself, your band, or your best friend - that's a conflict of interest.
Wikipedia is not an advertising service. Before writing about your own business, read Business' FAQ.
For experiments, please use the sandbox.

A tag has been placed on 6th studio album requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article and put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this article should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please use deletion review instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 11:47, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Don't remove speedy-deletion tags

You are entitled to challenge the speedy deletion; if you want to do that, put {{hangon}} on the page immediately under the {{db}} tag, and put your reasons on the article's talk page. The administrators will read what you say before they decide. But you should not remove the speedy deletion tag from a page you have created. JohnCD (talk) 11:48, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Articles about this have been repeatedly deleted for lack of any reliable source - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Britney Spears' 6th Studio Album for a recent example. If you continue to remove db tags after being warned not to, that is vandalism and you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. JohnCD (talk) 11:54, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of "Gtw93"

A page you created, Gtw93, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thanks. StaticGull Talk 12:02, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
