Hoodie Allen
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Hoodie Allen, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.thecultureofme.com/culture/2006/04/index.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 20:00, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Hoodie Allen
A tag has been placed on Hoodie Allen 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. -- Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 20:01, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

June 2010
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Hoodie Allen, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. -- Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 20:12, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Your hangon rationale
You wrote, This article, although it does not quite meet the required format yet, discusses a new band that is up-and-coming and should have a wikipedia page, especially in light of their upcoming mixtape that will be sure to increase their national attention and put them on the radar.

First of all, poor formatting is never grounds for deletion. The grounds for deletion are that the band is up-and-coming, that is, not yet established. You say that their upcoming mixtape will put them on the radar. The reason why we can't accept that as an argument is precisely that the tape is upcoming, and national attention hasn't happened yet. Best of luck with the band, but I'm afraid the visibility you were trying to reach through coverage by Wikipedia is itself a prerequisite in order to consider coverage by Wikipedia. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 01:49, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
