Accounting4Taste: talk 23:25, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Skye harbour requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the article's 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 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. Accounting4Taste: talk 23:25, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
Hello. I received a message that my article will be deleted. I understand the reason, but, this is not a simple garage band. -- [[User:Sirgreene|Sirgreene]] ([[User talk:Sirgreene|talk]]) ( talk) 23:33, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
I happened to agree with Accounting4Taste, which is why I deleted it. The tone seemed to fit the typical "wannabe" bands which arrive by the hundreds every day. The last paragraph successfully established notability IMO, so I've restored it. You may wish to do some immediate cleanup to the article so that another admin doesn't clobber it again; it's really shaky as it stands. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Ditto. For the record, I'm a "he." :) -- PMDrive1061 ( talk) 00:04, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for your note; I'll help you as best I can. I think the most important thing for you to do would be to collect everything that has ever been written about the band by people who could be seen as "independent experts". That is, not people who are members of the band or related to them, not postings in blogs or forums, not MySpace comments -- only people who are seen as having expertise in assessing bands and who have published comments in "reliable sources" like newspapers, magazines, etc. People like professional music critics or recording company executives. Those are the sources that are needed to create a picture of the band in its article. I suspect that one good source of these comments would be the people who judged the contest; who are they, why were they chosen to be judges, where did they say things, what exactly did they say and how can people confirm that they said those things? I hope this helps. It is sometimes hard for people to understand that Wikipedia doesn't want to know what people say about themselves, only what others say about them; it's the difference between "primary sources" (which we don't use) and "secondary sources" (which we do). If you have any further questions, feel free to leave me a note. Accounting4Taste: talk 17:58, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on File:KestieMorassi.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image with an unknown source or an unknown copyright status which has been tagged as such for more than 7 days, and it still lacks the necessary information.
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 [[ Talk:File:KestieMorassi.jpg|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.

Thanks for uploading File:KestieMorassi.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:33, 2 February 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Scott Mac (Doc) 19:33, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:JohnJarrat.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
