Notability of Keldof
A tag has been placed on Keldof requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (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. De728631 (talk) 01:13, 16 August 2008 (UTC)


 * After checking the sources you provided on the talk page, I removed the deletion tag. You might want to flesh out the article though and place two or three more of those sources onto the article's front page to point out the notability to everyone. De728631 (talk) 01:54, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Keldof
Hi and thanks for the message. I am unable to restore Keldof for you but I am not opposed to a re-creation of the article should you be able to meet Wikipedia's notability requirements Note that some of the sources you have provided to meet Wikipedia's policy on reliable sources
 * 1) Wikipedia is not considered a reliable source by itself
 * 2) Keldof's own website is not an independent source
 * 3) Press releases from Keldof themselves do not demonstrate notability, not being independent of the subject
 * 4) The NBC press release is marginally suitable, but mentions Keldof only in passing.
 * 5) Blogs are not reliable sources
 * 6) This is a reprint of 4.
 * 7) YouTube is not a reliable source
 * 8) Message boards are not a reliable source
 * 9) I am unsure what this source is supposed to demonstrate
 * 10) Keldof's own website is not a independent source.

Read WP:N, WP:ORG and WP:RS for some advice. Note, you do not need to convince me about your sources; I am happy to let you re-create the article but someone else will nominate it for deletion soon enough if it doesn't demonstrate notability through the use of references from multiple, independent reliable sources. Cheers and good luck, Mattinbgn\talk 08:31, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Orange (colour) has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \bfacebook\.com (links: http://www.facebook.com/pages/orange-the-best-color-around/83793619111, http://www.facebook.com/pages/ORANGE-the-best-color-around/83793619111 (redirect from http://www.facebook.com/pages/orange-the-best-color-around/83793619111)). If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.
