Welcome!

Hello, Mikeonis, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draconis, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draconis


A tag has been placed on Draconis 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 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; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. 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. Eeekster (talk) 04:18, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Mikeonis, I saw your note on the article's talk page, so I wanted to explain a little more clearly why this article was deleted. See, just because a band exists does not mean that it can have a Wikipedia page. All subjects on Wikipedia must be notable; in general, this means that they have been talked about in detail in multiple, independent reliable sources. You can see the specific criteria for bands at WP:BAND. If you believe that Draconis meets these requirements in some way, please leave me a note on my talk page and I will be glad to help you proceed. In the meantime, I have salted the article, which means that it cannot be recreated, as there has been to date no evidence presented that would indicate the band meets our requirements for an article. Again, please feel free to ask if you have questions. Qwyrxian (talk) 08:02, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
