User talk:Sslipknot3000

A tag has been placed on Pi Beta Chi, 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 Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page 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 its subject's notability under the 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. -FisherQueen (Talk) 19:11, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The tag I left you above explains how to ask for time from the administrator who will make the decision on this page, and also includes a link to Wikipedia's notability guidelines to help you decide whether this group meets them. If the group is not notable, the article will be deleted no matter how well-written it is, so I'd suggest checking the guidelines before you invest too much time in improving the article. If the group is notable, you'll find there the information you need to add to keep the article on Wiki. -FisherQueen (Talk) 19:57, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have left a note on Talk:Pi Beta Chi with a link to notability guidelines. Fan-1967 19:58, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And I speedily deleted it. Sorry, but this group had no assertion of notability and fails WP:N by twenty miles. Two people with an "Pi Beta Chi" shirt being pictured, by chance, on a newspaper photograph is no media coverage, because Pi Beta Chi was in no way the subject of the article or photo.
