Speedy deletion nomination of Theory 47


A tag has been placed on Theory 47 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.

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 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. Sparthorse (talk) 23:43, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

Theory 47
Hi there - you can see our guidelines for inclusion at this page. I don't think this band are quite there yet. Keep at it, though :) &mdash; Joseph Fox 02:22, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
 * As I say, "up and coming" usually means they are not ready for an article. Read the thingbob I linked above and you'll have a better idea. :) &mdash; Joseph Fox 03:33, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Naming a Wikipedia Page
This is a guideline page, which should have the prefix "Wikipedia:" at the start of the title... in other words, if we are going to shift the language of the title to "Naming a Wikipedia Page" then the full title should be: Naming a Wikipedia Page. That said... an editor should not simply change the title of a guideline page without some discussion. I have asked an admin to help sort out the mess you have created. Suggest you leave it to them.

 * OK... things are back to what they were before you edited. I am going to assume that you were acting in good faith and simply made an error.  No lasting harm done.  Blueboar (talk) 15:00, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

Nomination of Paging Grace for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Paging Grace is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Paging Grace until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Liv it ⇑ Eh?/What? 18:57, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

Once more, "do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article." Chris the speller  yack  03:50, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Hey Chris, sorry about that. I had intionally removed the box but without the knowledge that the page has yet to meet full approval. Are you the administrator of the page? I need to find out who is, in fact, capable of removing the "subject to deletion" box to make the page look nicer. I believe I have provided sufficient information on the band's "subject to deletion" page. In the edit box it says something "= keep" so I figured I had gained approval. Thank you for your time.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or  located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 21:44, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

Articles for Deletion
Based on your actions regarding the deletion nomination of your articles, as well as your questions here, it would seem that you don't quite grasp how the deletion process of Wikipedia works. Here's the link to Wikipedia's policies on the deletion process, which you should really read so you can understand the procedure: Articles for deletion. In short, you only get one vote in the discussion. No matter how much more evidence you want to bring up, you don't get to keep voting to keep the article over and over. And you certainly don't get to decide yourself that you proved the article's notability and remove the deletion notice. That is decided after a period of at least seven days by an administrator. Please keep these rules in mind, and give the linked article a read to clear up any other questions you might have on the process. Rorshacma (talk) 06:11, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification
Hi. In your recent article edits, you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.


 * Paging Grace (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)
 * added links pointing to Keyboard, LLC, Bass and Daughtry


 * All You're Made Of (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)
