Speedy deletion nomination of Piggy James edit

 

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on Piggy James requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: 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.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, 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. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. TbhotchTalk C. 03:34, 10 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Why Was My Article Deleted? edit

There are a couple reasons your article could have been deleted.

  1. It may not have met the General notability guideline. This is the guideline that all articles must meet before they can be included.
  2. It may not have been notable. If a subject isn't notable, it isn't included. Your little brother's garage rock band with 5 fans isn't notable, but Metallica...that's notable.
  3. It may not have been Verifiable. If an article doesn't have several third-party reliable sources, it can be deleted as original research.
  4. It may have been advertising. Any page about a company of any sort must meet strict guidelines so it isn't considered advertisting. A page about the local quickie-mart is probably advertising and also probably not notable.

Please read WP:FIRST, which is about creating your first article. Then get all the information you can on a subject. Create it in userspace (on a subpage of your userpage) so it won't get deleted before you are finished. Add all the information, references, reliable sources and more to the page. Make sure it meets the General notability guideline. If you aren't sure, ask an admin, they will be glad to help. Then move it to where you want it in mainspace (on the Wikipedia). From there, keep it updated with pertinent updated information, so the article doesn't become stale. When in doubt with anything, ask the Help desk or an admin.- NeutralhomerTalk • 04:45, 10 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
