Speedy deletion of Correspondence Chess Server (CCS)
[edit]
A tag has been placed on Correspondence Chess Server (CCS) 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 person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance 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 biographies.
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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. justinfr (talk) 20:27, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
The article did not indicate why the subject was notable by Wikipedia's guidelines. Please see Wikipedia:Notability (web) for more information. ... discospinster talk 16:02, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
- Again, the article has to show how the subject is notable. This was mentioned in the speedy deletion tag, in the notice sent to your talk page, in the deletion reason summary, at the top of my talk page, and just above this comment. The article did not show how the Correspondence Chess Server is notable. It has to show that, or it will likely get deleted. ... discospinster talk 16:57, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
- "Notable" means that the chess server has been talked about in independent sources like newspapers, magazines, well-known web sites, etc. ... discospinster talk 13:24, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
