A tag has been placed on Snoop stick, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. DarkSaber2k 14:16, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Buck Savage
Hi Hawkgirl

Thanks for your email. If you want to contact me again you can do so by editing my talk page. I am notified when someone edits it. Don't forget to sign any posts by adding four tildes like this ~.

I'm sorry for not letting you know about the deletion of buck savage. Normally I let the article creator know what I've done. I must have missed it this time. The article was deleted because it did not pass the Wikipedia notability criteria. Articles have to be about something notable (or we would be swamped with trivia). You can read more about guidelines for notability at Notability. In this case all that was written about this character was that they were invented by a highway patrolman and that there is a website for him. Many millions of characters are invented every week that satisfy this criterion.

If the character buck savage is in fact really well known - having a nationwide following - then you can recreate the article, as long as you give evidence to show that he is well-known, and references to back it up. References might include an article in a national newspaper or magazine, or an entry on a major news organisation's website.

I hope that helps. Feel free to ask me about anything else. DJ Clayworth (talk) 23:57, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
