Speedy deletion of "Petra Alarani"
editA page you created, Petra Alarani, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a band or other musical group, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for musical groups in particular.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

- Speedy deletion
- Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia.
- I'm sorry, but this has been deleted as meeting WP:CSD. Generally, articles are speedily deleted when there is no assertion of significance or they fall into things to avoid.
- Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information. That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written about the subject. Searching Google is the best place to start. Sometimes articles are deleted because they contain content copyrighted elsewhere. Such content can be used as a source of information, but the content here must be completely rewritten from scratch. Any deficiencies with notability, sourcing, or things to avoid should be remedied before reposting as they can lead to repeated deletions.
- For basic information on beginning to write an article see User:Dloh/new.
- Sourcing is incredibly important for an encyclopedia. You will need reliable sources providing verifiable information. Be sure to list your sources at the bottom of the article.
- For more general information about the deletion process, please see User:Dlohcierekim/deletion
- If you believe the subject does in fact meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information, please contact me on my talk page.
- Please read--

- If you wish to make test edits or work on the article before creating it, you can create a test page at User:HUFAN99/sandbox and consider using the Article Wizard to guide you through the creation process. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page
