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 Beyoncé's 2018 Coachella Performance 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 an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), but it does not credibly 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 "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 deleted 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, then please contact the deleting administrator. — Chevvin 03:32, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi! I'm not sure if this is the same as it is in your draftspace, but the deletion tag states that the main issue was that the article didn't show where Beyonce's performance was independently notable outside of the performer herself or Coachella. Wikipedia typically doesn't have articles for individual performances as it can be hard to show where it's independently notable of the performer and event/venue. Typically individual performances that receive some coverage are briefly covered in the performer's article and in the main article for the event. For example, this is already covered briefly in the main Coachella article at Coachella_Valley_Music_and_Arts_Festival#2015–present and at Beyoncé#2018:_On_the_Run_II_and_upcoming_seventh_studio_album, where it's covered in slightly more detail.
I think that part of the issue may have been with original research - there are several portions in the draft where it looks like you included original research, which are claims, opinions, or conclusions that are created by yourself but aren't explicitly stated in source material. An example of this would be the mention about Beyonce's costume. While it does seem very obvious, we can't state that she modeled her costume after Egyptian fashion or Nefertiti in specific without a source that explicitly states "Beyonce styled her costumes after black culture and black women, such as Queen Nefertiti". We could include it with say, a source like this Rolling Stone article which says this, but not with a source that isn't about Beyonce at all. It's one of those ways that Wikipedia differs from academic and scholarly work, as this is something that absolutely fine elsewhere. Essentially we can only summarize existing sourcing. There are several different areas in the draft that have this, so that may have contributed. It can honestly be pretty difficult to shift writing styles, as this was something I struggled with on Wikipedia when I first began editing.
I'm not entirely sure if this would really need its own article just yet - this is something that could probably pass, but would need to be written fairly specifically. This isn't the same thing at all, but the article on Beyonce's tour with her husband gives a good overview of how the article should be laid out and its overall tone.
