Notability of Georgia Yellow Hammers
[edit]A tag has been placed on Georgia Yellow Hammers requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
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 article (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. Dpmuk (talk) 14:28, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
- Have now removed the speedy delete tag as I believe it no longer meets the requirements as notability has been asserted. Dpmuk (talk) 15:40, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Cherokee Capital Fair
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Cherokee Capital Fair, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- not notable; brings up 8 results on the Googles.
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Suggestions on Starting new Articles
[edit]I suggest you start a new user subpage when starting an article. This way you can avoid all the deletion nominations. You can check this page for details: creating user subpages.Ismouton (talk) 17:21, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
The article C. P. "Phil" Reeve has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Notability questionable as per WP:MUSICBIO.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Guoguo12--Talk-- 15:54, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
