Re: Lemonrock
[edit]Please review Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) and Wikipedia:Notability (web). Thank you. Brianga (talk) 05:21, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- The website which you created an article about is not notable based on these guidelines. The primary guideline is:
- A company, corporation, organization, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of coverage in secondary sources. Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject. The depth of coverage of the subject by the source must be considered. If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple independent sources should be cited to establish notability. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability. Once notability is established, primary sources may be used to add content. Ultimately, and most importantly, all content must be attributable.
- Let me know if you have any more questions. Brianga (talk) 05:29, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Your recent edits
[edit]Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 05:36, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Re:Ownership query
[edit]Hi Mac. Editing on articles in which you have a vested interest is not encouraged, as per Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. However, regardless, your website is probably not eligible for an article at this time, regardless of who authors it. This is because the site does not appear to be notable based on the criteria which I cited before. Let me know if you have any other questions. Brianga (talk) 05:39, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Mac, please look at the notability criteria that I linked above. There is not really anything that you can do to 'make' the organization notable. Until it has been the subject of coverage in secondary sources such as newspapers and television, the organization is most likely not notable and should not be created again until those objections have been met.
