A tag has been placed on Ballet Fantastique requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Ballet Fantastique
Hi, I have been working really hard to create a page for Ballet Fantastique (a very interesting and unique non-profit dance organization in Oregon). You deleted the page because you said it lacked significance. I have looked at other ballet company's Wikipedia pages and have been modeling this page after existing pages so I won't get deleted. I also added a lot of source material. What do you suggest I write to satisfy your standards? Christy --Smooshette (talk) 17:21, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
 * You would need to establish that your company meets WP:ORG or WP:CORP as appropriate. Publications cited to establish notability should be major, e.g. statewide or national newspaper or television coverage, rather than a minor title within one city.
 * If you think you've already done that, you can file a deletion review which is a place where you can request an amendment to the deletion decision. Recreating pages that are deleted is not the way to go, however, and I have had to disable creation of the page Ballet Fantastique. Stifle (talk) 17:38, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Instead of talking on the deleted page's talk page, please edit your material on your own temporary subpage, such as this one: User:Smooshette/Ballet Fantastique and ask others to help review it for meeting criteria. Happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 17:56, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

More on Ballet Fantastique
Hi, Smooshette: I posted a reply to your inquiry on Editor Assistance; further to that I think you should check out the notability guidelines for small non-commercial orgs; there is nothing in that section that indicates a requirement for 'state-wide' coverage. Anchoress (talk) 22:25, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Also, on the Editor Assistance page where you posted before (check your contribution history to find it), Antandrus (I hope I spelled his name correctly), who is an administrator, has given you some helpful and encouraging advice. Anchoress (talk) 22:20, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
