Speedy deletion nomination of RockSteady Choir
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on RockSteady Choir, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Please help me with...
Why my new page referencing the RockSteady Choir was deleted? This was just a start and I was intending to add sections with more credentials, pictures and references. Katiefelix2015 (talk) 23:08, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
Katiefelix2015 (talk) 23:08, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
- The content that was there was written promotionally, and on top of that failed to explain why it met either the general notability guideline or the inclusion criteria for musicians and bands. Start anew at Draft:RockSteady Choir.--Launchballer 23:19, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

Please help me with...why my informational page for the RockSteady Choir was deleted. It is not self-promotion, it does not seek to advertise - it is strictly informational. The choir is the latest iteration of a choir that has been in existence since the early 1920's and is totally volunteer. It is fairly well known in Toronto, and I decided that probably it should have a basic Wikipedia entry. Please indicate why this was deleted. Thank you, James Katiefelix2015 (talk) 23:27, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

- Who is James? Wikipedia insists upon one person per account. I will leave it to another helper to answer your question.--Launchballer 23:38, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
- The page was determined to be written too much like an advertisement, which violates Wikipedia policies on neutral point of view. The page also did not show that the subject met the notability guidelines for musical groups. Notability is a measure of how many reliable, independent sources have written about the subject. If you have more sources that weren't included in the first article, you can start again at WP:WIZARD. If you need to get the content from the original article back for reference purposes, contact the administrators at WP:REFUND.
- On a completely unrelated note, I have two standard questions that I would like you to answer: How many people have access to this account? and Do you have any connection with the RockSteady Choir? -- AntiCompositeNumber (Leave a message) 23:41, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of The RockSteady Choir
[edit]The article The RockSteady Choir has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Failure to cite any references or to even claim notability. I cannot find any WP:RSes to support the group's notability (WP:GNG or WP:MUSICBIO).
While all constructive 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}}
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 {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:23, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
Nomination of The RockSteady Choir for deletion
[edit]A discussion is taking place as to whether the article The RockSteady Choir is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The RockSteady Choir until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:26, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
September 2016
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with The RockSteady Choir. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Since this article was nominated for deletion, it now goes through due process to (maybe) give it a second chance. I know you blanked the article, and normally it could then be just immediately deleted, but because of the nomination, this article should now go through due process. Optakeover(U)(T)(C) 06:52, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
- If people vote for it to be kept, there is a chance this article can remain. Don't give up yet! Optakeover(U)(T)(C) 06:54, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:RockSteady Choir

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Legacypac (talk) 00:18, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
