Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Darey Products

The result of the debate was MERGE to Matt Darey. The deletion case is unpersuasive, since the non-adspam nature of things has been clearly demonstrated and this company is owned by someone who, it appears, is certainly notable. I can see no real harm in a minimal merge to the owner's article as a result. -Splash talk 22:39, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Darey Products
as adspam. Wikipedia isn't a place for commercial links. Had added prod tag, but was contested by article owner, so listing it on afd now. Kareeser|Talk! 18:05, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom.--み使い Mitsukai 18:23, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Why is this marked for deletion? Because it has the word "products" in it?  That is the name of the record label - a pun on "dairy products".  Should I change the article name or something to fit it into some sort of naming scheme?  Note that this is a legitimate record label and I have no affiliation with it whatsoever.  The link is to the record label's website.  Is listing websites for company's not allowed here?  Sorry, I just started and don't know what a "prod tag" is. --WickeThEwok WickeThEwok 18:10, 10 February 2006 (EST)
 * It's nominated because it looks like a straight advertisement, and nothing in the extremely short article really adds anything much to anyone's knowledge about the label, save telling them that it exists.
 * This is nothing at all to do with "naming schemes" (it's a great name) but you need to read what Wikipedia considers notable in places like Notability, WP:MUSIC and WP:NOT. The article as it stands doesn't appear to meet any of those criteria (not that the label doesn't, just that the article doesn't make it clear and verifiable that it does). A "prod tag" is a  added to an article to say that it's PROposed for Deletion &mdash; a method of marking an article for possible deletion within five days without going through the process of debate and discussion that's happening here. Removing the prod tag to open the discussion up is the right thing to do if you are disputing deletion, as you are. Abstain, by the way. Tonywalton  | Talk 01:05, 11 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete nn label by a wikipedian who has only written label-related articles, struck out this time Ruby 01:21, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I dunno, I guess delete it then if it violates the rules. It was just supposed to be a stub.  Ruby, is there something wrong with writing about record labels?  I have been writing about them as Wikipedia only has articles on several important electronic artists and is missing many influential artists of today.  If there is some reason I shouldn't be writing about producers and record labels, fine, I'll stop.  Just trying to give some knowledge back to Wikipedia, which has given me so much.WickeThEwok''' WickeThEwok 03:56, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
 * No, go ahead and write about record labels, I just wanted to let people know the scope of your editing activities was so focused that you may not be aware of the guidelines for notability in some cases. Ruby 04:02, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
 * OK, I suppose I should probably start with more important labels/artists anyway.WickeThEwok''' WickeThEwok 04:05, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Also, forgot to say thanks for pointing me in the right direction, guys ;)..WickeThEwok''' WickeThEwok 04:11, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
