Speedy deletion nomination of Shaka mustache society


A tag has been placed on Shaka mustache society 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 club, 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.

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 hang-on 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Travelbird (talk) 12:10, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Shaka mustache society has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000650590152. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 12:17, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

re Shaka mustache society
I have deleted the article Shaka mustache society. The reason for deletion was that the article did not provide a credible reason for the significance of the organisation. University clubs, particularly unofficial ones, are rarely suitable for Wikipedia articles, because they are not usually written about in newspapers or books (Facebook doesn't count). Please read this page for information on working out whether your club is notable. As to re-creating the page, as you noted on the article's talk page: repeated recreation of unsuitable articles could lead to the page being blocked from creation and the account(s) used to create it being blocked, so it might be better to wait until someone not associated with the club decides that it meets Wikipedia's policies and writes an article about it. -- Kateshortforbob talk  14:52, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
