Lansing-Dreiden
This article has been deleted as a direct verbatim copy of http://www.filter-mag.com/artists/interior.179.html and cannot be recreated in its previous form. If you wish to recreate the article, it must be in original prose, WP:NPOV, with citations and an assertion of notability (see also WP:BAND). Thanks, and happy editing!

 * The new article is much better; however, there are no citations, particularly those from recognized experts in the field to demonstrate confirmation of some of the statements made. Also, "Their creations, while standing as provocative entities unto themselves, also contribute to a broader, ongoing company story. As Lansing-Dreiden's output expands and diversifies over time, its story unfolds and its image evolves." still reads as if it came straight from a press release and needs to be rewritten. Thanks. :)  Radio Kirk   talk to me  18:58, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Lansing-Dreiden
A tag has been placed on Lansing-Dreiden 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, 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.  freshacconci  speak to me  11:38, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
