Speedy deletion of Foxfire (band)
A tag has been placed on Foxfire (band) 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, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance 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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Thor Malmjursson (talk) 04:11, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Re: Foxfire (band)
Dear Stephen, I have added a copy of the deleted page to this location. You simply need to rewrite it establishing notability for the band (appearance in a major national music magazine, press, tv, radio, etc) and make sure you get it reviewed, since you have a Conflict of Interest - you are a member of the band you are writing about, which is normally a sticky area.

One more thing - I had to request a copy of the deleted page from an administrator, as they are normally the only ones who can service such a request. If you need anything like this again, contact whichever admin deleted the article, or just go to Admins Noticeboard and leave a message there.

Best of Luck! Thor Malmjursson (talk) 22:41, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
