Notability of Glenn Galen

A tag has been placed on Glenn Galen, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. 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. Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 14:12, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

RE: Glenn Galen topic

Sorry for deleting an article, but at first glance it didn't not seem to conform to Wikipedia:Notability (music) but if you feel it does please recreate the article by clicking this link: Glenn Galen.

I do not have a final say in any matter on deleting articles, It is up-to an admin, and the reason for an admin deleting this article was: "CSD A7", although if I accidentally put a 'speedy tag' on a article worthy of keeping, the admin would not have deleted it.

Sorry about that

Best Regards

Deputy Garcia,

Thank you for your considerate reply and action. If you follow the links in the article I am writing, you will see the significance of the Minneapolis folk music culture, Glenn Galen's role in it, and the very significant Coffeehouse Extempore'.

Ahh yes, i see know. FYI if another editor puts a speedy tag on it for any reason. Just added {{hangon}} below the speedy tag and explain your case on the talk page of the article. Then notify me and I will be along shortly to clarify things.

Regards

A "{{prod}}" template has been added to the article Glenn Galen, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but yours may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Reasons cited: Fails Music Notability, and contains no Reliable Sources for Verifiability. The only source provided is an outside self-written wiki page [1]). Please help improve this article by providing Reliable Sources that could be Verifiable by any editor, such as articles of newpapers, CD reviews, and other reliable THIRD PARTY sources - which means if the subject is notable - other sources would have written about them. And anyone can have a website, so that is not considered a reliable source either. Again, please see the Music Notability guidlines to see if the subject is notable enough for inclusion. If so, please provide Reliable Sources to prove it. If reliable third party sources cannot be provided to establish notability, this article will be considered for deletion.

As an added note, I would be happy to help with formatting of the references you can provide, be they old newspaper/magazine writeups, etc. I don't have time to do the research but I will put the article on my watchlist and if you provide the sources in the article, I can come in and help format them. Again, please read up on WP:RS and WP:V to see what could be included for reliable sources. I would ultimately like to see the article kept, if it meets inclusion guidelines. If you need additional help, feel free to contact me. Cricket02 19:37, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
