A tag has been placed on The Opie & Anthony Show staff 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 or group of people, 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. reddogsix (talk) 03:31, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

your edits to the opie and anthony article[edit]

Hi,

Thanks for your recent contributions to the Opie and Anthony article. I wanted to give you a heads up, though, that I reverted some of the changes you made.

Two of the core policies of Wikipedia are that it's an encyclopedia and all of its content should be verifiable. That means it should be a summary of the most important aspects of a subject as reported by reliable secondary sources. The reason I reverted your changes is looks like you took a block of text that cited some sources and was written in more article-friendly prose and replaced it with a list with no sources whatsoever. Staff listing may be interesting to other fans, but establishing it's noteworthy enough for inclusion in the article (and establishing that it's not original research) means accompanying secondary sources talking about the staff as a subject (secondary as in not directly related to the show or its staff). I think that I had looked briefly for sources talking about the staff a couple years ago for the purpose of including it in this article but was unsuccessful (everything was connected to the show or else unreliable e.g. wackbag, etc.). --— Rhododendrites talk |  05:35, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
