Speedy deletion nomination of Monster Pinball


A tag has been placed on Monster Pinball 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 web content, 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. peterl (talk) 04:57, 9 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi, I just saw your note on the article's "talk page"; I apologize because I may have deleted the article a bit fast (I didn't notice until after I deleted it that it had only been created within the last hour. However, on Wikipedia, in order for a subject to have an article, it needs to be notable--in general, that means that it has been discussed in detail in multiple, independent, reliable sources.  Is that the case for this piece of software?  Note that this could include reviews, but only if they were in reliable sources (so, a blog review wouldn't count), and only if there were several reviews and they were all detailed (i.e., not just as part of a broad review of pinball games).  If you believe that this software is notable, I can make a draft copy available for you to work on in a temporary holding space.  However, one additional problem--in general, people who are directly associated with a company/product should not be making articles about that company/product.  We call this a conflict of interest, because it's very hard to edit neutrally in such a case.  Usually, you should wait for someone else to notice the product being discussed in reliable sources and then make an article on it.  Let me know if you have questions--you can leave me a message at User Talk:Qwyrxian at any time. Qwyrxian (talk) 05:13, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
