A tag has been placed on Doo Doo Stretch & Scrotum Shrivel, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears 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.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add  on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. 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. Andante1980 13:27, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

A Band of Orcs
The article A Band of Orcs has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it 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 assert notability 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. -- Merope 13:24, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

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.

"This Is Why I'm Hot" Remix section
I don't actually delete the pages. I'm not an admin. However, I removed your entry about their parody reference, because the band doesn't appear notable -- that's why I nominated their page for Speedy Deletion, as well. Jauerback 15:34, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of A Band of Orcs
I don't understand why you deleted this page. Did you not see that the notability was confirmed in the discussion/history of the page by Merope? Ballstatic 04:52, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Check out WP:MUSIC, it outlines the criteria that the band fails to meet. - C HAIRBOY (☎) 05:00, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of Doo Doo Stretch & Scrotum Shrivel (band) page
I don't see how there's a lack of notability with Doo Doo Stretch & Scrotum Shrivel (band) when they are directly associated with two notable bands (A Band of Orcs, and Former Fat Boys) especially considering they are currently working on an MP3 single with Former Fat Boys. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ballstatic (talk • contribs)
 * Please review WP:MUSIC to see the standards of notability required for articles to remain on Wikipedia. - C HAIRBOY (☎) 05:05, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:ABandOfOrcslogo.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:ABandOfOrcslogo.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 06:39, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
