Speedy deletion nomination of Ali dino


A tag has been placed on Ali dino 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 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (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. Warrah (talk) 14:10, 26 November 2009 (UTC)


 * I've noted the "hangon" tag you applied to the above-captioned article, and the material you contributed to its associated talk page, which I reproduce here for your convenience: "many musicians have wikipedia pages: synyster gates, craig mabbitt, and jona weinhofen to name a few so why not ali? well some may argue that he is not as 'famous' as some of the above, but isnt this discrimination? and who's to say what 'famous' is? i'm sure many people havent heard of craig mabbitt for example, whereas theese people may know who ali dino is? not only is he a musician, but a youtube legend. the ali dino series recives tens of thousands of views! so come on wiki, don't be a douche". Who's to say what "famous" is?  Luckily, Wikipedia administrators have an exact standard against which to measure musicians for being "famous" -- it's found at this page, and I recommend it to your attention.  If you feel that there are articles in Wikipedia that do not meet this standard, you, like every other contributor, are welcome to tag those articles for speedy deletion and have them assessed by an administrator.  In the meantime, I don't find anything in the Ali dino article that comes close to meeting the WP:MUSICBIO standard and thus I have decided to be a douche and agree with the individual who tagged the article for speedy deletion.  Best of luck with your future contributions.  Accounting4Taste: talk 17:49, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
