Speedy deletion nomination of More Than Life (band)

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 More Than Life (band) 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. ~~EBE123~~ talkContribs 19:38, 2 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

  • Hey there! Thanks for writing the article on More Than Life; your contributions are much appreciated. Just so you know, I've removed the deletion tag - sorry that deletion was your first contact! I hope this hasn't soured your experience of Wikipedia too much, and you decide to keep contributing. If you want to, and have any questions or issues, just drop me a note on my talkpage and I'll be happy to help. Regards, Ironholds (talk) 20:16, 2 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Defeater (band)

edit
 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Defeater (band), and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.lambgoat.com/news/view.aspx?id=11739.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Hi. I've deleted the history of this article; please don't paste content onto Wikipedia even if you intend to rewrite it. Every time you hit save, you are signalling your agreement to our terms of use, including our copyright policy. Content must be properly written for license before it is placed on Wikipedia. Wikipedia:Copy-paste offers a simple overview of Wikipedia's approach to using previously published content. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:51, 17 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Magrudergrind

edit
 

The article Magrudergrind has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:Notability (Music)

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Kevin (talk) 01:00, 13 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
