Speedy deletion nomination of Gadgetar

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 Gadgetar 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 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about 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 "Click here to 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.

Hi @Khpura:. This message is in reply to your email that you sent me regarding the Gadgetar article being deleted. In your email you point out similar websites that have articles on Wikipedia. The threshold for whether or not an article about any particular thing should exist on Wikipedia is notability. You establish a subject's notability by showing that the subject has been discussed or featured in multiple independent, reliable sources. These are things like reputable news organizations, magazines, etc. Your article did not make a claim of notability and that's why it was deleted.

You state in your email "Wiki is all about sharing information, exposure, etc. So help me understand how Gadgetar information can be published?" This is partially true. Wikipedia is not about getting exposure for something that isn't notable. It is about sharing information that has already been significantly covered by reliable third-party sources. In order to have your Gadgetar article published, you will need to show that the Gadgetar company/website has been the subject of such coverage. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask! You can feel free to contact me or visit the teahouse. Cheers, Nick—^Contact/_Contribs 04:31, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on User:Khpura/sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.
