Speedy deletion nomination of Blockbuster mentality


A tag has been placed on Blockbuster mentality 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.

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. That's me!  Have doubt?

 * Hi, MJ8939. I'm an administrator here on Wikipedia. I wanted to let you know that I declined the speedy deletion request on Blockbuster mentality; as a concept, it simply isn't eligible for speedy deletion.  That being said, I did do some very drastic editing on the page--there's only a few sentences of your work left.  I did that because much of the commentary on the article was completely unsourced, and not neutral. In addition, 2 of the sources you included do note meet our reliable sources guidelines.  However, a quick Google Scholar search showed nearly 200 scholarly articles using the term, so if you have access to a university library/online journal search, you should easily be able to find reliable sources to add a lot more material to the article.
 * If you have any questions about this article or Wikipedia in general, feel free to ask me on my talk page at any time. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for adding new content!  Qwyrxian (talk) 12:24, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
