Welcome!

Hello, HennahBennah, 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, such as Del Vecchio&, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Del Vecchio's


A tag has been placed on Del Vecchio's, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.

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) 21:07, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

Deletion
OK. First, we don't have articles on each and every business or individual. There has to be some sort of notability shown - that's OUR definition of notability, by the way, not Funk & Thingy's. See WP:CORP for businesses. This has to be proved in reliable independent sources WP:RS. No forums, blogs, wikis, twitters, Facebook, Youtube, LinkedIn, yellow pages or other directories - and no 'official websites'. Posting opening hours, prices and address falls foul of WP:SPAM - even if it isn't advertising in intent, it looks like it and that's what counts. "A favorite among college students, it is definitely worth a try" is an utter killer.... Basically, there's not the chances a white cat called Snowball would have if she strayed into Hell of showing this place to be notable. It could be a good place for a pizza - that's not enough. To be honest, it was an excellent example of how NOT to create one's first article. This place may be free to edit (unless you happen to be blocked or banned), but there are rules contained in policies. Don't be afraid to ask questions - and if you try another, put it in your userspace first with DRAFT (that's typed as DRAFT ) at the top. You can click on User:HennahBennah/DRAFT, watch out for WP:NPOV (neutral point of view) as well as those other policies, and then ask someone for an opinion. Most admins and regular editors are willing to give opinions when asked nicely. Peridon (talk) 19:15, 30 October 2011 (UTC) (signing late - what happened to the bot?)

Speedy deletion nomination of Del Vecchio's


A tag has been placed on Del Vecchio's 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 organization or company, 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.

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Del Vecchio's, to Wikipedia, as doing so is not in accordance with our policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article; you might also consider using the Article Wizard. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Sparthorse (talk) 19:01, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, but
I didn't sign my post above, so you wouldn't know to contact me. Also, sorry that I've had to delete it again. You definitely avoided spam and NPOV, but didn't hit the target of notability. Or reliable sources. Yelp is a directory. It shows existence (and that someone has a telephone...). Urban Spoon is a general review place and directory. The directory bit is no good, and the reviews can come from anyone - including the company itself. I'm not saying this is the case - it just could be. (Some of them weren't - quite a few not very happy little bunnies had posted. Of course, they might work for Popeye's - or even Bluto's...) If this is for a school project, please note that while we do try to help as much as we can, articles still have to fit our requirements. You might get away for a bit longer if you took my advice to work in userspace - and leave it to the last minute before putting it there I didn't say that. Peridon (talk) 19:29, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
