Notability of 5 Wheel Drive
[edit]A tag has been placed on 5 Wheel Drive, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears 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 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.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia 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. WebHamster 11:59, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

G's Dairy Delights
[edit]I've taken a second look at the article, but I still believe the deletion was justified. Let me just explain: with regards to companies, Wikipedia has some strong guidance on what is notable enough to be included in the encyclopedia (see WP:CORP) - and this basically says it must be covered by good secondary sources. A quick look at google reveals 8 hits (2 mentions on blogs, and a few business address listings). Additionally, I see little way of verifying the material listed (original research isn't usually acceptable). I respect it may be known in the local region, but notability isn't about importance, just if it should be noted in the encyclopedia. Please feel free to ask me for more clarification, or you can make a posting at Deletion_review if you wish. Ian¹³/t 16:19, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
