Kid Dakota
Please don't cut and paste from other websites. First of all it violates copyright (see Copyrights) and second it makes the article look like an advert. It's much better to use your own words. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 05:24, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * you can of course use a short quote from the page rather than the whole thing. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 06:00, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Kid Dakota
A tag has been placed on Kid Dakota 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.
