Carnival Band
You should probably take a read through WP:MUSIC, which is the guideline for inclusion of musical ensembles/performers. If you could provide reliable sources that show the band has indeed gone on significant international tours, then the proposed deletion notice can be removed.

As a rule of thumb, it's a good idea to state the importance of the topic in the article at some point. For example, your article doesn't mention anything remarkable about the band, such as the international performances. Right now, all you've got is a very rough and somewhat random description that makes it sound the exact same as every other local marching band. --Wafulz 19:14, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

The Carnival Band follow up
Hey there! The article looks good. However, one thing I'd recommend is to avoid overlinking- this is especially true for external links. External links should be kept to an absolute minimum. In other words, the only external links should be those that are absolutely crucial to the article, such as the subject's website, or a source of information. Also, don't put in commercial links (such as where to purchase a CD). Check out WP:EL for more. --Wafulz 23:27, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

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 "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box.

Speedy deletion nomination of Parade of the Lost Souls


A tag has been placed on Parade of the Lost Souls 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 an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Epeefleche (talk) 22:57, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
