Speedy deletion of Lillytownusa
A tag has been placed on Lillytownusa 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 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Booglamay ( talk) - 10:12, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi Natlizee, I'm Neuro√ Logic the one who was speaking to you on your talk page about your article.
In order to assist you with your question, I'm placing a {{helpme}} template, as (being a new user myself) I can't come up with a solid answer for you.
{{ helpme}} To quote from the talk page discussion:
Notability
Unless you have a specific reason, and can make a valid point, using a {{hangon}} template I'm not sure this article meets WP:Notability standards, and it's been tagged as such for deletion. Thanks for understanding! Neuro√Logic 10:31, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
I understand, though will I ever be able to open this article again if I can fulfill the standards?, if I am not I urge for some time to contact a few friends who can assist me to improve it and ill improve the quality in a matter of a few hours!
Can someone help clarify how the article could meet notability standards? And if it's possible to recreate the article if and when it can?
Thanks,
Neuro√

Good day - twas I, Sir Booglamay of Wikia that bestowed such a tag on the page. OK. Let me explain. Although the article says what Lillytownusa is, it does not say why it is notable. One of the main ways establishing notability is citing coverage in third-party sources. Wikipedia has a saying that "having a product or service does not necessary qualify the subject for inclusion". That is, that the existence of Lillytownusa is not enough on its own to warrant an article. Hopefully the web notability page will clear some things up, but if not I'll watch this page so feel free to ask any other questions. As for recreating the page, a deleted page that is recreated (with no substantial content change) is liable to speedy deletion (either through the same deletion criteria or - if previously deleted through a discussion - via the G4 criterion). If the notability of the subject is established, you're more than welcome to recreate the page whenever. If the page hasn't been deleted (as is the case at the moment), you can of course continue working now. I'd suggest putting an {{ underconstruction}} template on the page, and a note on the article's talk page. Booglamay ( talk) - 11:03, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
