Speedy deletion nomination of Fretted Instrument Guild of America


A tag has been placed on Fretted Instrument Guild of America, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.
 * It appears to be a clear copyright infringement. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.
 * It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for 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.

US-centric translation
Hi. Just a quick note re: the Stripper page - you translated the (reported) "Freshers' Week" to "[Freshman] week". Firstly, this appear to not be a very common term (hardly any Google results!), so probably shouldn't be used anywhere on Wikipedia. Secondly, Wikipedia isn't written in American so using terms from other nationalities is just fine, especially if (as in this case!) you can wikilink the result. Good work anyways, that page is in need of some real TLC! Cheers,  Nik the  stunned  09:49, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I was conflicted about that, so thank you for the correction... :) I'm also the one that did the "male stripper" article merge. Overall I'd say that the article is pretty good and takes a reasonably clinical approach to discussing the subject matter. What did you think of the section I added? --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (talk) 17:11, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

porn parody article
Hi,

I wanted to let you know that I have enjoyed helping you edit the porn parody article. If you need any more help editing with that article, or any others you may be working on editing please let me know. It has truly been a pleasure.

Oh, btw, I seemed to have invoked the wrath of your nemesis HW. Please see the "ANI" discussion located at this link. I take it that HW was not happy that I interfered with him trying to do whatever it was he was doing there the other day.

Oh well, stop over and put your two cents in the discussion, IF YOU DARE!!! lol lol lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents

Laissez les bons temps rouler. Mardi gras dans le monde ~ Happy Mardi Gras to you and yours...

ciao!!! Carriearchdale (talk) 01:35, 4 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi Carrie, many thanks for your efforts, its appreciated and always welcomed. Feel free to peruse my personal Sandbox where I maintain a list of articles ''in process


 * As for HW, that one is a curious sort. I've made repeated attempts to make peace and generally be less abrasive in conversation. That said, HW seemingly prefers to be ticked off as well as wildly guilty of many of the things that HW accuses me and others of. "Bad faith" and "dishonest editing" are things HW routinely throws at others and then goes on to commit. The most recent example is the discussion of the Proposed deletion of the Mikala Mendez article. The comments that HW made, seemingly under the guise of "analysis", were a complete misstatement of the truth. As for the Rachel Reilly article, HW's actions are just plain bizarre.


 * That said, HW has made what I consider some good edits and caught things that went unnoticed by other Editors, but this seems to be the exception rather than the norm. Then again, I have no interest in digging into HW's edit history beyond where we cross paths. But I still find the nature of HW's rage and obstinance to be rather bipolar at times.


 * Again, thank you and best regards. I'll pitch in support when I can. Laissez les bons temps rouler mon ami. --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (talk) 02:08, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
