Speedy deletion of Archipelago Forum[edit]

A tag has been placed on Archipelago Forum 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 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion of Poetry Magazines[edit]

A tag has been placed on Poetry Magazines requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. sh ¤y 17:53, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Qualm.co.uk[edit]

Hi, thanks for your message regarding Qualm.co.uk, I am afraid I am unwilling to overturn the AFD decision I reached over this article. The main reason for this is that I see no evidence that it meets the main notability guideline - significant coverage in reliable secondary sources. If you believe there is such coverage then I am quite willing to userfy the article to your user space for you to add the sources to the article and establish notability. Once that is done the article can be moved back to the main space. You are of course free to take this to deletion review if you feel I have made the wrong decision.
