Welcome!
Hello, NHowland89, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Howla, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

Or, you can just type help me on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Speedy deletion nomination of Howla


A tag has been placed on Howla 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 or group of people, 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 deleting administrator.

 * How do you determine what is important - surely the level of importance is determined by the reader through their choice to read and review rather than the autocratic wikipedia staff deciding for a population of people which deem things outside narrow parameters which you set to be important.


 * First of all, the overwhelming majority of Wikipedia editors are unpaid volunteers who do this on their own free time.
 * Wikipedia is not about everything. It summarizes topics that are notable - worthy of notice to the world at large. The general rule is that if a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for inclusion. For articles about people, their are more specific notability guidelines for people, and even more particular ones for living persons. These guidelines have been arrived at by consensus amongst the community of editors over time, and are often reviewed and revised. You are welcome to dispute them at Wikipedia talk:Notability (people) if you feel they are unfair.
 * It's also not advised that you write about yourself. People aren't objective judges of their own notability and too often use unpublished personal knowledge, which can't be accepted for establishing notability. --Drm310 (talk) 19:04, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Howla, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: 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 page. Thank you.
