Notability of Hellfire Sermons
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Hellfire Sermons, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Hellfire Sermons seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Hellfire Sermons, please affix the template 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. --Android Mouse Bot 2 10:34, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi
Can you ask the admins to move the article to your user space so I may look at it and further advise you how to continue? - Francis Tyers · 18:19, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Response
Hello there. First, I hope you did not think the deletion had anything to do with the band, but the article. The article did not assert the notability of the subject. That does not mean the subject is not notable. I did a cursory search on the internet (by no means exhaustive) and didn't see anything clearly implying that this subject was worthy for inclusion. Please see WP:Music. Also, being sold in any sort of store does not imply notability, nor does popularity. I myself had my first article deleted in the same manner, Kronos Digital Entertainment, because I failed to assert clearly within the article why this subject was notable. Eventually, I will recreate this page, when I've done enough research to make it clear that it's worth reading about. I hope the deletion does not discourage you, and that no offense was taken. ~ JohnnyMrNinja  06:30, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I did not delete the page, I placed a db-band template on it, and an administrator (who agreed that the article has no assertions of notability) deleted it. And, to be honest, a Google search is generous. An article cannot rely on readers to search the internet to find out why the subject is important. Again, nothing personal about the band, but non-notable bands get Wikipedia pages so often that db-band was created so that these pages could be deleted quickly without any time-consuming processing. That is why, if the band is notable by WP:Music, it is vital to clearly state within the article why this is so. Often Wikipedia is just used as a means to promote a band that otherwise made little-to-no impact on the outside world. I have asked that an administrator move the page to your userspace. Please read WP:Music carefully to ensure that the article doesn't get deleted again. ~ JohnnyMrNinja  17:55, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I have fulfilled your request to userfy the article. Please use User:Andy Ford /Hellfire Sermons to bring the article up to standards. Follow JohnnyMrNinja's advice and read the linked to pages to insure you have a proper, encyclopedic article. Once you believe you have brought the article up to standards, please go to the village pump and ask for input to see if it is ready to "go live" again. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. -Andrew c [talk] 19:59, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
