Speedy deletion of Since October
A tag has been placed on Since October 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, 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance 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 (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 a copy be emailed to you. Dethme0w (talk) 18:09, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Why
Hi there, I thought I might explain further why the page you made is a candidate for speedy deletion. Firstly, information on Wikipedia must come from reliable sources, so the band members themselves are not a good source. A newspaper or magazine or a notable website would be much better. The other concern is notability. Wikipedia's general notability guideline, as well as the music-specific notability guideline both explain the standards for inclusion, which is basically if they have been the subject of coverage in third party reliable sources. So actually, the two issues are closely related. I have also found that this page is the best, most concise guide to what Wikipedia is and how it works. Good luck, and feel free to contact me on my talk page if you have other questions. Beeblbrox (talk) 18:58, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
