Speedy deletion of Famous Smoke Shop

A tag has been placed on Famous Smoke Shop 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 a company or corporation, 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 indicate 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 companies and corporations.

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

Re: Editing Talk:Famous Smoke Shop

No worries, "G8" (Talk page deletion) is a cleanup procedure. The idea is that we delete the talk pages after the corresponding articles got deleted. I'm happy to see that the article wasn't deleted this time (it's much better too ^^). There's no issue with recreating the talk page since the article is back. Thank you for your persistence in writing it! -- Luk ^talk 14:44, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
