A tag has been placed on Connectr, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add  on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. 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. -- – B.hotep u/t• 19:39, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Connectr article recreation
To Bubba hotep - Yes I am new to contributing to Wikipedia and on reflection I appreciate what you are saying here and understand the whole process a little better. I am disappointed that the article was removed as I had spent quite some time writing it in the belief that it was of use to some people. Is there any way of retrieving the text as I would like to use it elsewhere & didn't think to keep a copy of it? I hope this can be done.

We live and learn.


 * I've moved it here for the time being. It is in userspace, not the main encyclopedia space. Whilst it can't stay there indefinetely, you can at least do what you want with it, other than move it back, please! Thanks. All the best. – B.hotep u/t• 21:55, 18 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Not a problem. Glad you are not deterred by the experience. Happy editing, and if I can be of assistance at any time in the future, please don't hesitate to drop by. :) – B.hotep u/t• 18:26, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, in recognition of the fact that you may be new to Wikipedia, I would like to explain why your article may not be suitable for Wikipedia. In the form it is in, is is considered as blatant advertising for a website or organisation. Secondly, but perhaps more importantly, it does not seem to mention why the group/website is notable enough for inclusion in an encyclopedia. It appears that the website is not even operational as yet so could not possibly be notable at this point in time - which leads back round again to the theory that it is advertising the website in the hope that it may become more notable. Please refer to the policies and guidelines offered in the welcome note above for more information on notability guidelines. Thanks. – B.hotep u/t• 19:53, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
