Speedy deletion nomination of No al Calcio Moderno


A tag has been placed on No al Calcio Moderno 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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. Gonzonoir (talk) 10:18, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia inclusion guidelines
Hi Stroive. I saw your comment at Talk:No al Calcio Moderno. I don't doubt that club exists, but that's not enough in its own right to guarantee an article in Wikipedia. We determine which subjects should be covered using a guideline called notability, which requires basically that any encyclopedic subject must first have been the subject of substantial coverage in third-party reliable sources - articles in major newspapers, books, scholarly works, etc. I'm not seeing any evidence of that in No al's case.

As well as that, the article as it stands doesn't actually assert what's important about the club at all - that's why I've nominated it for speedy deletion.

If all you're looking for is somewhere to host information about the club, take a look at a list we maintain of alternative outlets, which includes hosting sites that don't share Wikipedia's inclusion guidelines. Meanwhile, we'd be very happy to have your contributions to articles about notable subjects - Wikiproject Football might contain some areas you'd like to work on.

If you have any questions feel free to ask on my user talk page. Gonzonoir (talk) 13:31, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
