User talk:Sixthgearofficial

Hi and Welcome. I noticed that your Username shows up red when you post an edit -- in case you were wondering why, this is because your userpage is devoid of content. If you were to place anything at all on your userpage (text, photographs, etc.), your username would then appear blue by default. By convention, most serious contributing editors place information about themselves on their userpages, and as a result, editors whose usernames are still red may appear to other editors as lacking a serious motivation in both editing Wikipedia articles as well as joining the Wikipedia community at large. I therefore recommend that you place something on your userpage, such as information as to where you live or what your hobbies are. You can check out other editors' userpages to get an idea of what is normally included (find them easiest by checking the history tab on randomly chosen yet substantial articles), and even copy/paste from their userpages (modifying the information to reflect your's, of course). Even the manner in which your name appears may tell a little bit about your character and personal style (if the default blue is not your cup of tea, you can copy/paste a username format from another editors' post, and put that information into my preferences at the top of your page after you sign in, modifying it, of course, to include your usename.) This may help you feel like you're more engaged and integrated into the culture of Wikipedia. Please contact me if you'd like any more advice. :)  DRosenbach  ( Talk 02:04, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Sixth gear
The article Sixth gear has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it 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. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 02:34, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Suggestion
Hello. Instead of creating four articles with no sources, perhaps you could focus on creating one good article with supporting sources. Keep in mind that Myspace and Yuotube are never reliable sources. Have a look at WP:RS. Also have a look at WP:N to determine if the topic you wish to create an article about is notable enough for an article. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 21:38, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Your band articles
I recommend you stop creating bios and band articles for a little while other editors decide if they meet the guidelines for inclusion. §FreeRangeFrog 21:48, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The relevant policy page is WP:BAND. Basically, if all you've got is MySpace or Bebo pages, the band is not going to be notable enough for an article. Individual band members, even those in notable bands, should not have their own articles unless they have done something notable apart from their involvement in the band.
