Discussion from Heez On Fire talk page
A group of collaborators, working in conjunction with Mr. Hanson have begun putting together a wikipedia page as he has become a relevant producer in the genre of Hip Hop music. His page intends to include numerous outside sources and in-depth media that are relevant to his life as a musician. The collaborators of this article ask that wikipedia please refrain from deleting the page, at least not before it is finished. We have been interrupted in the process of editing, and would appreciate being able to share the information with the wiki-world! This article will contain multiple contributions and references, and we ARE NOT using the page to promote, advertise, or otherwise spam in any way, shape, or form.

This in mind, the collaborators ask that wikipedia, kindly, not delete the Heez On Fire wikipedia article.

Thank You! The Collaborators — Preceding unsigned comment added by HeezOnFire (talk • contribs)


 * Hey! Welcome to Wikipedia. I know form experience that it can seem unfair to have your first article nominated for speedy deletion.  The problem we face is that articles need to meet a few criteria to qualify for an article on Wikipedia.  If there isn't even a legitimate claim of fulfilling those criteria, the article can be nominated to been deleted quickly which is the case here.  The second problem is that if we waited for every new article to be worked on until the authors were comfortable with the state of the article then evaluated it for inclusion, we'd have a backlog the size of Texas and the state of Wikipedia would quickly deteriorate.  If the article is deleted before you can make a claim, don't worry.  The article can be moved to your userspace so that you can work on it.  You can think of it as an on-deck circle.


 * At this point, we'll need to establish notability which would qualify the subject for inclusion. To do that, the article will have to include significant coverage (not just a blurb) in an independent and reliable source (a decent sized newspaper for example).  As of right now, every link in the article is not independent and can't be used to establish notability.  Do you have any newspaper or magazine articles about Mr. Hanson?
