Motorola Tough Talker moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Motorola Tough Talker, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Tough Talker article

I do not think article should not be deleted. “Mobilecollectors.net” is a great resource for information about vintage cell phones, and there are a lot of experienced collectors on there that know their stuff.

Vintage cell phones are a niche. There aren’t many “official” places to cite info about them.

This article is very small right now, but I will be working on expanding it greatly in the future.

I really hope y’all can understand, and will leave this article up. 80sCompaqPC (talk) 06:01, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to influence the discussion about the potential deletion of Motorola Tough Talker, you need todo so at the discussion, not here. The very simple instructions to do that have been left on the article for you to follow. Before you do so, please read WP:RS, which is Wikipedia's policy on reliable sources. Forums and user-generated content are explicitly not reliable sources, so cannot be used in articles. Your point about the phone being "niche" is exactly the problem - there are no published, independent sources that show it is notable. The Mirror Cracked (talk) 06:14, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
