[edit] July 2007

Welcome to Wikipedia. An article you recently created, Invention(band), may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do and please read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. Xiaphias 09:12, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Kevin, it doesn't seem clear that the band is sufficiently notable to merit its own Wikipedia article. You could post a link to a newspaper or reliable website which mentions the band, or otherwise demonstrate that the band is popular enough to receive an article. --Xiaphias 09:28, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

To follow up, the criteria for a band's inclusion in Wikipedia is listed at WP:BAND. I just put a tag for speedy deletion due to lack of notability on the article. I'll add the boilerplate warning text which has some more links that may be useful, and speaks of the {{hangon}} tag you can use to contest the deletion. - Fordan (talk) 12:44, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Invention(band)

A tag has been placed on Invention(band), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. 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. - Fordan (talk) 12:44, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Invention (band)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Invention (band), by Evb-wiki (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Invention (band) seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Invention (band), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it did not nominate Invention (band) itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 12:54, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
