Speedy deletion nomination of Rockiah
A tag has been placed on Rockiah 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

RE: Your article
Hi there. You can create the page at User talk:Lazarw/Rockiah and work on it there. And when you have worked on it enough to make it pass the notability guidelines, you can copy the content over to Rockiah without fear of deletion - provided it passes the guidelines for inclusion. Regards, SGGH ping! 20:02, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The fact that it has been deleted doesn't mean you cannot recreate it. You simply create it the way you created it at first. There is no prohibition on the recreation of deleted pages - so long as they meet the criteria for inclusion. SGGH ping! 20:06, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah I see. I have placed the original content at the subpage above. As to why it was deleted, it was because it failed the inclusion criteria regarding musical groups. In particular, points 1) and 2):


 * 1) Has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician or ensemble itself and reliable.
 * 2) Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart.
 * Remember that an article has to show such notability by illustrating it in the article. From memory, another user tagged the article as non-notable and I concurred and removed it because there was no indication that any mentioned albums landed in any national music chart, or were any other than self produced, and no indication that the topic was the subject of anything other than self-published myspace and facebook and self-made web pages. Remember that notability has to be illustrated. Kind regards, SGGH ping! 20:56, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
