Disambiguation link notification for August 31

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Priscillas, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Holloway and Damaged Goods. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of Fightmilk

Hello TryANewChord,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Fightmilk for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

I saw only one independent reference - the others were self-sourced or trivial. Perhaps when they get a little more press? ~SAcroterion (talk)

Hi, I'm sure there were 2, although I (foolishly) didn't take a copy for myself. Could easily add another. TryANewChord (talk) 12:20, 30 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've put the content into a sandbox here [1]. Please remember that two references is the barest minimum for an artist that hasn't charted or met any other criterion, since it in effect is a WP:GNG argument, which really should be able to turn up three or more significant references. The first reference is okay, the second is a self-source and the third is mere mention. Acroterion (talk) 01:56, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The third reference is a mid-length capsule review, in a column of several such? Still, I'll see what else I can find. TryANewChord (talk) 10:39, 3 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
