The article Proud simon has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki 16:30, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Proud Simon
A tag has been placed on Proud Simon 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 band, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

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), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.

re:Proud Simon
Hi, Yrletter! To be included on Wikipedia, an article is required to show that its subject is notable. Ideally, notability is established through the coverage in and citation of multiple, independent, non-trivial sources. Alternatively, if no secondary sources can be found, Proud Simon can be included if it can be proven that it meets the criteria set forth in WP:MUSIC. The fact that a band exists is not by itself criteria for inclusion, but coverage in multiple independent substantial reviews could definately establish notability, and if you need help with citations or research, I'd be more than happy to help. Hope this answers your question.Mister Senseless&trade; (Speak - Contributions) 22:23, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
