Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:JumperCut

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 Draft:JumperCut, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page 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. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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.

If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft has no references.

O.C.

You may feel as if you re-founded the Oregon Crusaders, but you cannot "found" what already exists... While you may have "re-organized" what was already there, to say that you "re-founded" the unit is more of a stretch than including the founding date of the original Oregon City corps which had passed into obscurity before the Southern Oregon Crusaders moved to Portland and shortened their name in 2001... User:GWFrog

I'm pretty new to Wikipedia, so not sure how it all works. First, I appreciate you being on here and having so much interest in OC. At the end of 2006, the group basically folded as a result of all the staff leaving, and so we did reconstitute it from scratch (what we term as a refounding). But you are correct, the organization was documented as a 501c3 nonprofit corporation in 2000 (not 2001). This was while being the Southern Oregon Crusaders. It wasn't until after the refounding in 2007 that it was officially changed to be just Oregon Crusaders with the IRS. So technically there is some true "founding" of the new legal entity that occurred in 2007. Also, thanks for your understanding of the logo change. As the person who reconstituted the organization and created the current logo, I am always reminding folks internally that the compass rose is a symbol of the organization, but not the logo.

Oregon Crusaders organization moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Oregon Crusaders organization, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

I am the President of the Board of Directors for the organization, and the content on the article was created by many people before the original article was deleted from Wikipedia because (we are guessing) we no longer host an active drum corps and the original article was about the drum corps itself. Hence the re-posting of the page as the organization rather than the drum corps. Our organization is a legal Oregon Corporation and a 501c3 nonprofit, and we have updated the article with those citations of our legal status and additional citations on our history and current works.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Oregon Crusaders organization (April 11)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Justiyaya was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Oregon Crusaders organization and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Oregon Crusaders organization, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
