Proposed deletion of Women's Oversized Fashion in the United States 1920s-2000s

The deletion of an article you created, Women's Oversized Fashion in the United States 1920s-2000s, has been proposed for the following reason:

Long list, not really encyclopedic, also possible sourcing issues

You are welcome to improve the article to meet Wikipedia's quality standards and remove the deletion notice from the article. You may also remove the notice if you disagree with the deletion, though in such cases, further discussion may take place at Articles for deletion, and the article may still be deleted if there is a consensus to do so.

Wikipedia has certain standards for inclusion that all articles must meet. Certain types of article must establish the notability of their subject by asserting its importance or significance. Additionally, since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, content inappropriate for an encyclopedia, or content that would be more suited to somewhere else (such as a directory or social networking website) is not acceptable. See What Wikipedia is not for the relevant policy. You may wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Proposed deletion of Women's Oversized Fashion in the United States 1920s-2000s

The article Women's Oversized Fashion in the United States 1920s-2000s has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Long list, not really encyclopedic, also possible sourcing issues (removed possibly on accident, nothing done to address issues)

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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. gwickwire | Leave a message 01:30, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

Removal of PROD tags

Please do not remove PROD (PROposed Deletion) tags from articles unless you have addressed the concerns, especially articles you create. If you have questions, please ask me. If you remove this PROD tag without addressing the concerns, I will have to keep replacing it, and it won't get you anywhere.
