Speedy deletion nomination of Gold Coast Stingrays

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Gold Coast Stingrays 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 person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. —C.Fred (talk) 02:35, 4 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I noticed that you've been editing Australian Sports topics :) Thanks for your edits, but I think that one of the pages may not meet Wikipedias guidelines for inclusion - perhaps you should read this page. If you are unsure about anything you can ask me on my talk page, ask at the teahouse (a special page for new editors like you), or at Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 19:30, 4 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
