Thanks- I guess I am in over my head. While I feel that the subject of my article is valid, I clearly should of tried to create the article in the sandbox.Robbin Spires (talk) 02:56, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi Robbin. Another administrator has already declined the speedy deletion tag on The Lovely Bad Things - the sourcing is sufficient to avoid deletion under those terms. It's true that the article could use some work, and if you'd like me to move it into a subpage of your userspace so that you can carry on working on it without the deletionbunnies slaptagging it, just let me know.

Speedy deletion nomination of The Lovely Bad Things


A tag has been placed on The Lovely Bad Things 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 or musician, but 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. 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 "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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. INeverCry  23:01, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

Thanks- I will carefully proceed with editing the article so it is not only written better (while staying neutral) but also contains the proper references and falls into a category. I also look forward to editing existing articles (one a week to start) so I become familiar with all protocols. Robbin Spires (talk) 15:27, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
