The Holidays
[edit]I really don't think that references, even if they are found, are going to suddenly make the band notable. WP:MUSIC defines the minimum notability criteria for bands and musical ensembles to have page on Wikipedia. Whilst that is only a guideline, unless a marginal band has a fully referenced article from the very beginning, it will always be an uphill battle. As I said at WP:AUSMUS if you still feel that you can develop it into something, work on it in your user space, and when you think its ready, ask there and see what others think. And don't repost the deleted article into the main article space as you will be seen as being disruptive.
Sorry to be so negative, but thats just the way it is. —Moondyne 13:55, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- I think it can be moved to the article space now. Good luck! — H2O — 09:54, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- I think that maybe you should hold off until the band has released their EP, that or their songs recieve some significant national airplay - then you can make a judgement call. Dan arndt 23:19, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Well In!
[edit]Just a prop for adding Loog Records. I've been thinking its been needed for a while now. The page is already looking good, i'll do all i can to make it even better. Thank you for your contributions! --SteelersFan UK06 00:32, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
Duplicate images uploaded
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Lanewayfestival.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Header.jpg. The copy called Image:Header.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.
This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond.

A tag has been placed on User:Sparkelman11, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of the article and leave a note on [[Talk:User:Sparkelman11|the article's talk page]] explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Calton | Talk 11:43, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Lanewayfestival.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Lanewayfestival.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:19, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
Notability of Teenagersintokyo
[edit]A tag has been placed on Teenagersintokyo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Arx Fortis (talk) 22:10, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Image:Liberationmusiclogo.jpg
[edit]I have tagged Image:Liberationmusiclogo.jpg as {{orphaned fairuse}}. In order for the image to be kept at Wikipedia, it must be included in at least one article. If this image is being used as a link target instead of displayed inline, please add {{not orphan}} to the image description page to prevent it being accidentally marked as orphaned again.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}

Speedy deletion of The Holidays
[edit]A tag has been placed on The Holidays, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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.

Flagging Salvatore Zofrea for further review
[edit]Hello, Sparkelman11 … I recently encountered the article about Salvatore Zofrea and in my opinion, it either lacks sufficient Attribution that it satisfies the Notability criteria for Biographies, or it may violate the Conflict of interest guideline, or perhaps it violates a copyright.
I am considering tagging Salvatore Zofrea (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) for deletion according to the Deletion policy … I do not have time to examine the article in depth at the moment, and it may improve over time, in which case this warning was premature.
I have created this initial entry on your Talk page because you are either the original author of the article, or else a recent contributor to it; I will leave more detailed information regarding my specific concerns about the article on its Discussion page … please respond either there or on this Talk page, instead of on my Talk page, in order to avoid fragmenting the conversation.
Be sure to read Ownership of articles, and remember that other editors may not share your opinion about the notability of the article's subject.
I do not mean to imply that your contribution is unappreciated … perhaps you should read Your first article … and remember, there was a time when I knew less about how Wikipedia works than you know right now. — Triwbe (talk) 09:13, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

The article Ghostwood (band) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-notable band, fails WP:BAND.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. JayJayWhat did I do? 07:29, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
