The Parson Red Heads
The article The Parson Red Heads has been or soon will be deleted from Wikipedia. This happened because the article seems to be about a subject but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. --  Merope  21:33, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I do not claim to know what is notable; the article I deleted made no assertion of notability, as defined per WP:MUSIC. If you do resubmit the article, please be sure that it meets these standards, or it will be deleted again.  Simply existing is not enough to make a subject notable.  --  Merope  21:46, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

I've restored your article to your userspace (linked above) so you can continue to work on the article and improve it. You will want to look at articles on other bands to figure out how to format it. You'll also want to remove quotes from the MySpace profile (as it is copyright infringement; that text is owned by MySpace), and remove a lot of the trivial details such as the band members' favorite foods (as that information does not belong in an encyclopedia). You'll also want to cite any sources you use, particularly ones that establish notability. After you've worked on it for a while, I can help you move it back to the encyclopedia space.

Another note: you should sign your name on talk pages by adding ~ to the end of your posts. This automatically adds your username and the time, and makes everyone's life easier. :) Please let me know if you have any further questions.  --  Merope  22:01, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

User:Pastican/The Parson Red Heads
I have added a "" template to the article User:Pastican/The Parson Red Heads, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
