Speedy deletion of Kickin' Brass edit

 

A tag has been placed on Kickin' Brass 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.

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 {{hangon}} to the top of the page (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. Printer222 (talk) 06:09, 30 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Kickin' Brass edit

Kickin' Brass is a fairly new quintet, but according to our coach, we are making leaps and bounds new quintets simply do not make.

We hoped to use this page as a way for possible clients to see us. We hoped that with the help of our Wikipedia article, we could get the exposure needed to fulfill one or more of the twelve requirements set forth as guidelines for ensemble articles. Dcs152 (talk) 06:36, 30 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Wikipedia is a terrible place to get exposure.
With 2.5 million pages, the odds of anybody coming across your page are minimal. Unless they search in Google, in which case you want them coming to a page of your own, where you can put up music and all the chrome that we forbid. Also, although it seems reasonable for one person to do it, our problem is that approximately eighty bazillion people think it would be a great idea to get their band, product, gym teacher, or dog on Wikipedia. So we have to be pretty tough about this or we'd be buried. Plus, all information in Wikipedia must be verifiable from reliable sources; until you are written about by them, we can't really publish anything useful about you.
So in sum, definitely promote yourself on the many web sites set up for that, but this isn't one of them. Do get famous, though, and one of our many music enthusiasts will add you in without any work at all on your part.
