Aug 2008[edit]

Hello, Quicksilverriding! I hope you enjoy becoming a Wikipedian. Just to let you know, you nominated 2 pages I made for deletion. You said "Nothing in The Look (band) asserts notability" but they had a #6 hit in the charts, which makes them notable. I would like to know how Robin Simon fails WP:BLP, as there are claims to notability and reliable sources. In future, I want you to look more carefully at pages for notability before you nominate them for deletion. Please reply. Thanks, ®∂бЯέЩ§τЄґ 09:31, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You shoud have added the sources that are there now, before publishing the article. Next time, begin the article in your sandbox and publish it when there are suffcient sources. Quicksilverriding (talk) 13:22, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, BUT lack of sources is not a reason to delete an article. It is a rason to clean it up. If it hardly asserts notability, or is a possible hoax, then sources would come into it, but not for an article about a well-known British guitarist who is notable for 3 reasons with one source. Thanks for the advice though, Universal CerealBus ♫♪ 10:52, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
