Speedy deletion nomination of Wolves at the gate (band)


A tag has been placed on Wolves at the gate (band) 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.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can 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 a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Mkdw talk 22:20, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Removing Speedy at Wolves at the gate (band)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for taking the time to contribute.

I'm a bot designed by another Wikipedia editor, and I'm here to help you with our deletion process. I noticed that while working on an article recently, you removed a speedy deletion template that tagged it for deletion. Don't get discouraged! Deletion discussions happen on Wikipedia all the time.

If you don't want the article to get deleted, please [ click here].

The link will take you to the talk page, where you can explain why the article should be kept. If you have any questions about this or need help with editing, you can ask at the Help desk.

We really hope you'll stick around to help make Wikipedia better! Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 22:21, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Wolves at the gate (band). If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion, which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 01:00, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Wolves at the gate (band)
Hello Matthewyoung2012,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Wolves at the gate (band) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks,  Zappa  O  Mati   01:45, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Welcome and other stuff
Hi, I'm Darkwind, and I wanted to welcome you to Wikipedia. I'm sorry about the confusion about the article you started, but Wikipedia has certain rules as to what subjects are eligible to be included in the encyclopedia (this is called notability). If you create an article for a topic (such as a band) that isn't notable, or if the article doesn't explain why the subject is notable, it will probably be deleted. Please don't let this discourage you. You can find some tips at Your first article.

However, I did want to let you know that some of what you were doing on that article can be considered "disruptive editing", meaning that you're doing things that the Wikipedia community finds unacceptable. One of those things is removing "speedy deletion" tags from the article if you're the one who created the article in the first place. If you create an article, and someone marks it for deletion, you need to leave that tag there. Instead, you can explain on the article's talk page as to why you think the article shouldn't be deleted.

Please let me know if you have any questions. You can ask at my talk page or put (including the curly braces) on this page with your question. &mdash;Darkwind (talk) 05:27, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
