Speedy deletion nomination of Throwing gravity
A tag has been placed on Throwing gravity 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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.

 * The basis for inclusion of an article on Wikipedia is notability. The reason your article Throwing Gravity was deleted was that it did not give any reason to suspect that the subject was in any way signficant.


 * It may be the case that the band in question does actually have notability. The criteria are fairly straightforward and are covered in WP:BAND:


 * (at least one of these should ideally be fulfilled)


 * 1 Has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician or ensemble itself and reliable.
 * 2 Has had a record certified gold or higher in at least one country.
 * 3 Has received non-trivial coverage in a reliable source of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country.
 * 4 Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable).
 * 5 Is an ensemble which contains two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a member of two or more independently notable ensembles.
 * 6 Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.
 * 7 Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury, Choice or Grammis award.
 * 8 Has won or placed in a major music competition.
 * 9 Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a notable compilation album, etc. (But if this is the only claim, it is probably more appropriate to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that article.)
 * 10 Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network.
 * 11 Has been the subject of a half-hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network.


 * Criterion 1 is by the easiest to fulfill. Catfish Jim and the soapdish (talk) 09:14, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
