Wikipedia:Articles for undeletion

On Wikipedia, there will always be some of the articles that do not meet quality guidelines and basic requirements. It is possible that an experienced user will nominate one of these articles for deletion.

This can either be done quickly if there is a need (derogatory comments, pure nonsense etc.), through the Speedy deletion and proposed deletion systems if they feel the deletion will not be controversial, or by being nominated for a deletion discussion if it may be controversial.

Articles are deleted for several reasons:
 * Their notability is not verifiable or they are original research
 * They are utter nonsense, have no clear meaning or do not resemble anything remotely meaningful
 * They fail the guidelines for articles in their category (e.g. websites, music groups, books, etc.)

However, sometimes mistakes are made and articles are incorrectly deleted.

If you feel that an article should be undeleted, please place a request here --Here where?-- and the Undeletion Committee (elected by a quorum of administrators) interested administrators will look at it.

If you wish to place a request, please use the following format: == Request for Article name  == Article: (article name, linked, no piping please) User: (sign with three tildes here) Comments: (please detail why you feel the article should be undeleted) Generally a discussion will ensue below, including input from the group allocated to review requests. If dispute the process in which the article was deleted (i.e. AfD closed too early, incorrect criteria followed for speedy etc.), this process is not the place for such a request; please see Deletion review.
