Speedy deletion nomination of Thunderum


Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing inappropriate pages, such as Thunderum, is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

 * Hi, Laszev, I've gone ahead and deleted the page; not under the hoax criterion, but the A11 criterion, which covers things apparently made up by the page's author. After reading your post to the article's talk page, it doesn't look like you were intending to mislead anyone, which would be implied by a hoax, but it seems like this was just the sort of thing that you had made or thought up and went to write an article about.


 * Wikipedia isn't really meant to cover everything under the sun; rather, it tries to cover all notable subjects. The concept of notability in Wikipedia terms is kind of deliberately vague, but a basic minimum is that a subject must be covered in multiple, independent reliable sources to be included. This is because, as part of the goal of providing verifiable information, we need there to be sources to cull such verifiable information from. If there aren't any sources, there isn't anything to put into an article.


 * This is all an elaborate way of saying that Wikipedia just isn't for articles like that. It's a common mistake to make, though, so don't worry about it too much; if you want to help with creating or editing other articles, you're more than welcome to. Just keep these kinds of things in mind. If you have other questions, there are some resources available (not many, but some): here's a place where you can ask questions and get answers about Wikipedia editing, for example. I'm kind of in and out these days, but you're also welcome to ask me any questions you like at my talk page if you prefer that. Good luck, and happy editing!
