User talk:DrewGranchelli

Welcome!

Hello, DrewGranchelli, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created is an unreferenced biography of a living person. The Wikipedia community has decided that all biographies of living persons (BLPs) created after 18 March 2010 must have reliable sources, or they can be deleted.

This is not a judgement of the quality or notability of your article. If someone has put a prod blp template on the article (click this link to see what it looks like), you have ten days to add at least one reliable source to the article. Once you have added at least one reliable source to the article, you can remove the template. (To learn more about what is a reliable source, read Reliable sources, and to learn how to cite sources, read Citing sources. Or if you want an easier newcomer's look at citing sources, read User:Cymru.lass/Advice/External links and references first.)

Going over some of the pages below will help you get a sense of Wikipedia, and knowing about Wikipedia's most important policies will help keep you out of trouble here (click [show] to see the links):

Getting started:

Introduction - a great first look at Wikipedia

Notability - talks about how to determine whether or not a subject is notable enough for inclusion in Wikipedia

3RR - Wikipedia's three-revert rule, which says you shouldn't revert a single page more than 3 times in 24 hours

Deletion policy and Criteria for speedy deletion - two pages that talk about reasons for deleting an article. The second page talks about special reasons that allow pages to be deleted quickly and without discussion (attack pages, copyright violations, etc.)

Asking questions:

Questions - tells you where to ask questions


 * New contributors' help page - this is a great place to ask for help when you're new to Wikipedia

Speedy deletion nomination of Aron Magner


A tag has been placed on Aron Magner requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about it 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 you can assert the notability of the subject,. Clicking that button 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 article's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

See the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. Dmol (talk) 18:14, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

Hello DrewGranchelli. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.  Eagles   24/7  (C)  02:40, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Aron Magner


The article Aron Magner has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 16:31, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Suggestion
I have a suggestion for your work on Aron Magner. You might ask at some music related WikiProjects or WikiPortals to ask for help with the article. (A WikiProject is a group of editors that focus on a common task or subject.) Just explain to them that you are a publicist and ask if any of them can take a look at the article with a neutral pair of eyes. I'm not implying that your writing is bad or untrue, just that for the Wikipedia process it would be best for some uninvolved editors to participate. A publicist may have a natural bias (a virtue in their job) for their clients. In the same way an American trial doesn't let judges work on cases involving friends or relatives, Wikipedia prefers people who are not too close to a subject to edit an article.

To find a WikiProject where someone might help I'd suggest looking at this list of music WikiProjects. Or WikiPortals about music are listed at music portals. Then just leave a message at the project's talk page. Some projects are very active and some are pretty inactive, so it's best to leave a message at one that looks like it's currently being used. Maybe Portal:Electronic music? Cloveapple (talk) 22:20, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry there. I messed up the linking above earlier. If you try it now it should work. Cloveapple (talk) 05:15, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. I will submit to the electronic music project. I really appreciate it. DrewGranchelli (talk) 14:14, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
