Notability of MIXISM
A tag has been placed on MIXISM requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (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 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. AndrewHowse (talk) 01:17, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

RE:Please Help: MIXISM Article Deleted
I'm looking at the deleted article revision and the article at the time of deletion did not assert a claim of notability (one or more of the given critera ofWP:MUSIC). I can copy the deleted page into your userspace for you to work on before it (like asserting notability per WP:MUSIC and perhaps adding some sources to back up the claims of notabiity)is put into back into the mainspace. The MTV (particuarly), Lake FX Radio and XM Radio would add some back up but clear out mentions of them will only prevent the article from being speedy deleted. Battle of the Bands wouldn't be enough of an achievement to provide notability as a lot of everyday bands would have taken part in some sort of music competetion in their early career unless you are referring to some sort of notable televised music show called "Battle of the Bands" but even that would only be a small assertion unless it was a national sort of thing and the band won the competetion. And the ASCAP's ACE Title Search is a database like imdb (where even a lot of extras would have profiles) also wouldn't help assert notability. The problem with the "specific blend of original electronic" mention is that it would have to be heavily sourced by multiple reliable sources that are independant of the subject. Having one MTV article reference probably won't prevent the article from being Prodded or filed for deletion. Take a look at WP:MUSIC to see if the band meet any more of the listed critera especially the critera under Notability_(music) as those critera don't need as many sources as a claim of an original take on electronic would. Also another reason why the music style has to be heavily sourced as it does not seem to be in a neutral point of view and it could very easily be seen as an WP:ADVERT for the band if left unsourced and not surrounded by other claims of notability. Usually music style sections are the last to be created purely because it's the hardest to write without sounding like an opinion piece like a review and also needs a lot of sources to back it up even if it is a short paragraph.
