Speedy deletion nomination of Raven and the Radicals


A tag has been placed on Raven and the Radicals requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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. Darkness Shines (talk) 13:44, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Deletion
Sorry, but Wikipedia is not a place for promotion. This is an encyclopaedia, and we list the arrived, not the up and coming. (We also list those who arrived but are now past it...). Please see WP:BAND for details of what makes a band notable, and WP:RS for info on the references needed to prove it. Good luck to the band. We may see them here again, but it's a hard business. Now is too soon. Peridon (talk) 15:39, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
