Speedy deletion nomination of Old Skool with Terry and Gita
[edit]A tag has been placed on Old Skool with Terry and Gita 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 about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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
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.

Your comment on the main page
[edit]Hi - if you want to create a new article you can try the article wizard or you can go through the process at Wikipedia:Articles for creation. Let me know if you need help. 7 07:10, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you very much kind fella, see, what I am trying to accomplish is to have an article of "The 7th day theory", the one that theorizes that the hip hop artist Tupac "2pac" Amaru Shakur is still alive for some reasons, I have external links ready and citations and verifications and all that is supposed to be included on a good article, but I've noticed that the article has existed in the past but it was delete more than one time.
- I find this very odd and even stupid since Wikipedia has a number of articles about "Conspiracy theories" and hoaxes like the one I mentioned in the Main Page's discussion section, the "Paul is dead" hoax, thanks for your attention.--Josecarlos1991 (talk) 07:17, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
- Wikipedia does indeed have a number of articles which include parts of conspiracy theories, but usually only those where the theory itself has already achieved notability (e.g. Roswell incident and John F. Kennedy assassination conspiracy theories). I am not at all familiar with the topic you are discussing (know a few of his songs) but I am wondering: do you feel that the Tupac theories have risen to the level of the ones I mentioned? Can you describe any of the sources that you have (and are they reliable?). As you probably know, the goal of the encyclopedia is to describe notable events (including hoaxes or conspiracies if appropriate) after they have become notable. The goal is not to help the theories become notable.
- You may want to go ahead and create the article in your own user subpage and work on it there and solicit comments from the community after you feel it is presentable - you can do that at a page like User:Josecarlos1991/2pac 7 07:28, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
Ok, thank you very much for your time.
Websites where the topic is discussed: [1] , [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , content.com/article/1695483/tupac_rumored_to_be_alive.html. Well, there are hundreds if not thousands more like that.
- I'm afraid those don't look like reliable sources to me - but you are free to seek a third opinion. You should take a look at of this, and this, and the guidelines on "fringe" theories. 7 08:47, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
