Proposed deletion of PodCast Of 1000s
Hello, Mfpconnect. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, PodCast Of 1000s, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:


 * 1) edit the page
 * 2) remove the text that looks like this:
 * 3) save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Speedy deletion nomination of PodCast Of 1000s


A tag has been placed on PodCast Of 1000s 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 person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, 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. Mfpconnect (talk) 17:09, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Re:Deletion
The community came to a consensus with the reasoning seen here: Articles for deletion/PodCast Of 1000s. It didn't meet our notability standards. To establish notability, you need coverage from independent reliable sources, not just names of people who may have been interviewed. CHRISSY MAD ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  15:20, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Chrissymad is right. For an subject to have an article at Wikipedia, it must have significant coverage in independent secondary sources. For instance, if the podcast had received substantial coverage in national papers or on major radio or TV programmes then it might be considered notable and have an article. I've deleted the talk page where you asked this question originally, but please do feel free to ask further questions here. If you do, it'd be helpful to ping me with so I know you've asked a question. GoldenRing (talk) 15:28, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

I really appreciate the responses I can understand. I really do. How do you measure significant coverage? Substantial coverage? How many independent secondary sources suffice?
