I've tidied up Southern Stars Baseball Club for you. JRA_Westy Qld2 ^Talk 10:05, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine, it's hard to meet notability for a non-professional club on Wikipedia, unfortunately there isn't enough media coverage for Southern Stars like other GBL clubs. JRA_Westy Qld2 ^Talk 07:35, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Southern Stars Baseball Club[edit]

Hello Qld Smithy, this is a message from an automated bot to inform you that the page you created on November 28 2010, Southern Stars Baseball Club, has been marked for speedy deletion by User:Grahamec (page has mainspace links, and 4 edits). This has been done because the page seems to be about a person, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant (see CSD). If you think the tag was placed in error, please add "{{hangon}}" to the page text, and edit the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. If you have a question about this bot, please ask it at User talk:SDPatrolBot II. If you have a question for the user who tagged the article, see User talk:Grahamec. Thanks, - SDPatrolBot II (talk) on behalf of Grahamec (talk · contribs) 14:01, 1 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion[edit]

Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia.

I'm sorry, but this has been deleted as meeting WP:CSD. Generally, articles are speedily deleted when there is no assertion of significance or they fall into things to avoid. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information. Any deficiencies should be remedied before reposting.

For basic information on beginning to write an article see User:Dloh/new.

Sourcing is incredibly important for an encyclopedia. Be sure to list your sources at the bottom of the article.

For more general information about the deletion process, please see User:Dlohcierekim/deletion

If you believe the subject does in fact meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information, please contact me on my talk page.

If you wish to make test edits or work on the article before creating it, you can create a test page at User:Qld Smithy/sandbox and consider using the Article Wizard to guide you through the creation process.

Cheers, and happy editing. Dloh cierekim 14:34, 1 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
