Speedy deletion of Kris Allen
A tag has been placed on Kris Allen 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

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), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you. &mdash; Jake   Wartenberg  02:31, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Being on "American Idol" doesn't necessarily mean one is notable. The article was also written like an advertisement, so it was deleted as an article on a non-notable musician. Please read WP:BAND for more info. Thanks. PMDrive1061 (talk) 02:42, 3 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm concerned about the tone of the article, but you've added a lot of third-party references, which are absolutely vital for an article on a performer. I can undelete it, but I would suggest cleaning up the style or it may get deleted again.  Good luck.  This will only take a moment.  --PMDrive1061 (talk) 03:00, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Sure. I'll let you know when I'm done. As a rule of thumb, think really dry and scholarly. Place drove me nuts at first; I used to write ad copy! PMDrive1061 (talk) 03:06, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

OK, I've cleaned up the text. It still needs proper formatting and references. I have to sign off, but the WP:MOS can help you with the general layout. Have fun! --PMDrive1061 (talk) 03:17, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
