Speedy deletion nomination of Despi(Rapper) edit
A tag has been placed on Despi(Rapper) 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 or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
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 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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

March 2010 edit
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Despi(Rapper) has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline 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. I removed the following link(s): http://www.facebook.com/despi.pimp (matching the regex rule \bfacebook\.com).
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, constructive, 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. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 08:28, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
March 2010 edit
Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Despi(Rapper). Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you. JamesBWatson (talk) 09:02, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Criteria for inclusion of articles edit
I have seen your comment on the talk page of the article Despi(Rapper), asking for it not to be deleted, where you say "the is not enough articles written about people from south africa". I have also seen the comment "this is article 100% true" in the article itself. Unfortunately Wikipedia does not have articles on the basis that there are not many articles in a particular topic area, nor even simply because the contents of the articles is true. We require that a subject has received a significant amount of attention in independent sources before we regard the subject as suitable for an article. You may read more detail about this in the notability guidelines. Also, the comment "this is article 100% true" does not belong in the article: I shall move it to the talk page.

You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
