Notability of The Tongue (MC)

[edit]

A tag has been placed on The Tongue (MC) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. TomStar81 (Talk) 00:22, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re. The Tongue (MC)

[edit]

Hi,

It's a shame that your first article has been nominated for deletion, even when you 'did the right thing' and worked on it in a sandbox.

I'm not sure if the subject is notable (please read) enough? I did a quick google search, and didn't come up with much apart from youtube.

If you can cite some sources - maybe a press article or something - then perhaps it could be a valid article.

Anyway, I hope you'll continue to contribute, and please ask me if you have questions.

Hi again,

  • Please remember to 'sign' your posts with ~~~~. You forgot on my talk page.
  • I think your article has a good chance of being OK. you need to cite a couple of reasonable news articles, and that'd do it. If it's mentioned in the press (and not just an obscure web press site), then it's notable.
  • Most important is the NPOV thing. You need to 'sound like an encyclopaedia', if you get me.
  • If you want, you can always ask me - or anyone - to have a look over a version in your sandbox and ive opinions.
  • Good luck!
