Hello, Uakhan786, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Nu Phi Delta, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Nu Phi Delta


A tag has been placed on Nu Phi Delta 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.

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. Tikiwont (talk) 16:16, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Notability
As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia is selective about subjects for articles; the criterion is called notability, and is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes places where anyone can post anything, like Myspace, Facebook, blogs; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. The test is, have other people, independent of the subject, found it important and significant enough to write about?

Not many student organizations can pass that test, important though they may seem to their members and within the world of their college. National and international organizations may be notable, but individual chapters are unlikely to be - see College and university article guidelines and WP:OUTCOMES.

Wikipedia is specifically not for helping to advertise or promote anything - see Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion. In fact we strongly discourage people from writing about themselves or their own organizations, and you should read: If you ask, but how will anyone hear about us if we can't write about ourselves? the brutal answer is, if no-one independent of the group is interested enough to write an article, that probably indicates that it is not notable in Wikipedia's sense, and we are not here to help make it well-known.
 * Conflict of interest
 * Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest

Before you produce a list of other fraternities who have articles, we know that many of our 3,000,000 articles are sub-standard, but do not regard that as a reason for admitting more, so that What about article X? is not accepted as an argument.

I am sorry to be so discouraging, and you are welcome to continue to develop the article in your user space if you think you can show notability, but you need to understand the height of the bar you have to surmount. Deletion discussions like WP:Articles for deletion/KCL Netball Club all too often record a lot of wasted energy and emotion put into something which never had a chance.

WP:Your first article is essential reading, and WP:Notability and WP:Notability (organizations and companies) are relevant. You can ask for comments on your draft at WP:Requests for feedback.

You might want to look at Userboxes as a means of telling colleagues about yourself.

This message is not meant to discourage you from editing Wikipedia but rather to remind you that the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia. Thank you. Dlohcierekim (talk) 06:57, 15 October 2017 (UTC) Dlohcierekim (talk) 06:57, 15 October 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Kasra restaurants


A tag has been placed on Kasra restaurants, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.
 * It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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 deleted 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.
