Proposed deletion of Taliban Death Knot


The article Taliban Death Knot has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Fails WP:GNG and WP:IMPARTIAL. Internet searches fail to turn up a single result for "taliban death knot", and the language in the article is a massive WP:NPOV violation.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Taliban Death Knot


A tag has been placed on Taliban Death Knot, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It is an "attack page", and appears to be primarily intended to disparage or threaten its subject. This includes biographies of living people that are unsourced and entirely negative in tone. (See section G10 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please do not make statements attacking people or groups of people. Wikipedia has a strict policy against personal attacks; attack pages and images are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
 * It appears to be about something made up, and 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. (See section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

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 "Click here to 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.

Changed speedy
I've changed the speedy to reflect that this is something that someone came up with one day. The problem is that I can't find anything to show that this knot has received any coverage or is really notable enough to merit a mention on Wikipedia. We need to have coverage to show that it's notable. On a side note, we also aren't the right place to post things like this. We're not to be a WP:SOAPBOX for editors' viewpoints, no matter what the subject matter is. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   04:40, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
