Notability of Funkypool

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Funkypool, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Funkypool is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles, as well as notability guidelines for websites. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Funkypool, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Funkypool logo.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 23:05, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Well...

Read WP:NOTE, maybe that'll help clear it up a little. Size does not mean notability mind you, and just because one thing is notable doesn't mean the other is as well. Kwsn (Ni!) 23:28, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

It's all weird I know. I've honestly never understood why some web articles get special treatment. Kwsn (Ni!) 23:40, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Thing is, a lot of people have said some of the notability guidelines are too strict, and I agree. I can't do anything solo like changing the guidelines out of the blue, but I could make suggestions. Also, you may want to sign your posts using ~~~~. Kwsn (Ni!) 23:50, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

No problem, there probably are a lot of other things you can do here. And one last thing, it doesn't help much if your username matches the article name. Kwsn (Ni!) 23:55, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Fisherqueen added this to my talk, posting it here in case you don't see it

You're close. It isn't about size or commercial success. It's about being able to verify that the information in the article is true- by using independent sources, like newspapers and magazines. If no independent sources have written about a game, then the information is impossible to independently verify. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:57, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

You could request a name change at WP:CHU if you want. Kwsn (Ni!) 00:04, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Thankfully no, but that just is how it seems at times. Kwsn (Ni!) 00:31, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Make sure you use three equal signs for the header, I think the bot removed it by accident cause it cause it only had two. Kwsn (Ni!) 01:08, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 23:49, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi

This is our notability criteria for websites.

I've realised after I renamed you that you may be confused with User:Chris G who is an admin. You could potentially be blocked for impersonation, do you fancy coming up with another name? Secretlondon 02:43, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
