Speedy deletion nomination of Vinding sportsforening


A tag has been placed on Vinding sportsforening 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 club, but it does not credibly 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 "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, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Hey JamesBWatson

I'm fairly new in this game of editing wiki pages/writing them so i'm not familar with how this works :) so please bare with me. I can undertand that you have requested for my English version of "Vinding Sportsforening" to be deleted.

The version which you have requested to be deleted was not the final version, I have taken a screenshot of the final version, which I will link in this message.

Now to the reason for creating a english version. Denmark has like many other countries seen a mass immigration of foreigners lately. Many of them do not understand danish for good reasons. I therefore thought it would be a service to them, to translate the page, and make it easier for them to join the local football club. I would gladly elaborate on the aforementioned if needed.

Best Regards Lucas - Denmark

Hi, thanks for message. You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~. Please add your messages to the bottom of the talk page, or they may be overlooked. If you post an article it will be assessed as it stands. If you don't want that to happen, you should write it as a draft. Not a reason for deletion, but you should use "sports club" in your title on enwiki, not Sportsforening

Note also that if you want someone to see a message on this page, you need to link to their user name and sign the message with four tildes. As it happens JamesBwatson only nominated the page, I actually deleted it. I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the organisation, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the organisation claims or interviewing its management.

I therefore thought it would be a service to them, to translate the page, and make it easier for them to join the local football club. &mdash; we are an encyclopaedia.

I'm sorry this is all bad news, Jimfbleak - talk to me?  14:04, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
