Speedy deletion nomination of Gay-ville


A tag has been placed on Gay-ville, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous 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 guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.  DGG ( talk ) 01:50, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

The article Gay-ville has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 17:19, 9 March 2012 (UTC)


 * The first two independent sources were blogs, which don't generally meet WP:V. The last one was listed as a YouTube link, which is also generally not valid, but as a clip from what appears to be a broadcast TV news show, I've given you the benefit of the doubt and reposted the article.  Some more sources would be helpful.  NawlinWiki (talk) 17:32, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Gay.net is not a blog. Gay.net is privately owned by Here Media which is the owner of the Advocate Magazine, Out Magazine, Out.com. It is an online magazine and is highly reputable in the gay community. NewNowNext is also not a blog, it is an online magazine owned by Logo which is an LGBT television network, which is owned by Viacom and is also a reputable source of news. Instinct Magazine is a print magazine with an online version, which I have included. Also, I used the YouTube link as I could not find a link to the clip from the television station as it was in Hebrew, but the clip was featured on national Israeli television. I will add more sources if you like, however, only cited the sources from where I took information.

I'm curious as to what specific language makes marks this page as advertising or promoting the website? I have updated the text twice and would like specific instances so I do not have to continuously change things.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the 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 will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.
