The article Sos sons of soul has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. 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.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:11, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Sos sons of soul
A tag has been placed on Sos sons of soul 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 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 that has been nominated for deletion (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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Creating a new page
Please don't just recreate a page that has been deleted; there's a reason it was deleted the first time.

Articles require ' in ' that are ''' of the subject.

Significant: References that are about the subject - it is in the title or chapter heading. Not passing mentions. Not directory listings. Not just any old thing that happens to have the name in it. Several of them - not just one. It must be notable.

Reliable sources: Something that is 'generally trusted' to tell the truth. A major newspaper. A factual, widely-published book. High-quality mainstream publications with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. Not blogs, not myspace. Verifiable.

Independent: Nothing written by the subject or paid-for by the subject. Not their website. Not a press-release. Not primary sources.

You can create a WP:USERSPACEDRAFT, and then you can work on the article (and get help with it) before it goes 'live'.

For more help, you can either;


 * Leave a message on my own talk page;
 * Use a - please create a new section at the end of your own talk page, put , and ask your question - remember to 'sign' your name by putting ~ at the end;
 * Talk to us live, with this or this.

The last of those is particularly useful - please try it; pop in now and say hello.  Chzz  ►  19:23, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
