Speedy deletion of Stevie k band

A tag has been placed on Stevie k band 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.

Stevie K Band

I have put a copy of this page in your userspace (located at User:Mankef/Stevie K Band) to allow you to work on it without it being deleted. I appreciate your hard work and am glad you accept that we need guidelines to sort pages worthy of inclusion. On top of WP:MUSIC, you may be interested in the following Wikipedia guidelines:

WP:NOTABILITY - general notability guidelines
WP:GARAGE - essay on band articles (take it with a pinch of salt)
WP:APT - avoid peacock terms; don't overdress a subject to glamourise it (we're not a tabloid)

Hopefully that's enough to get you started - good luck! [ cycle~ ] (talk), 16:15, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Skua (band) concern

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Skua (band), a page you created, has not been edited in 6 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:32, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Skua (band)

Hello, Mankef. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Skua".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Draft:Skua (band)}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 11:27, 26 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
