Speedy deletion nomination of The Louisville Mosque


A tag has been placed on The Louisville Mosque requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. De728631 (talk) 22:34, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Please read Notability (organizations and companies). I'm sorry but your mosque is not notable under Wikipedia criteria. De728631 (talk) 22:51, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

The Louisville Mosque
Note that I have deleted The Louisville Mosque not for notability concerns but because the whole thing was a copyright infringement of http://www.louisvillemosque.org/aboutus.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copypasted content under copyright, as all of our material must be free content. You're welcome to rewrite the article, provided it has sufficient coverage in reliable secondary sources (hence establishing notability) and also provided it is not another copyright infringement (that is, please use your references for a basis of content and not a basis of sentences). Hope this helps. Thank you, MuZemike 02:56, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
