A tag has been placed on KZUM, 89.3 FM-Powered by the Community, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page 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 help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Finngall 22:23, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article Dr. Rock & the Medicine Show has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time.

Commercial use of Image:KZUM E-News2.gif

[edit]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:KZUM E-News2.gif, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:KZUM E-News2.gif has a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission, which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3). While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:KZUM E-News2.gif 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. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 22:13, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of REBELS, In His Hands

[edit]

A tag has been placed on REBELS, In His Hands 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 by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (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. Nyttend 20:24, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:460111438 s.gif

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:460111438 s.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 03:54, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

May 2008

[edit]

In a recent edit to the page Rainbow (band), you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to other English-speaking countries, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the appropriate variety of English used there. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, you can ask me on my talk page or you can visit the help desk. Thank you. Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 10:14, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of The muggs

[edit]

A tag has been placed on The muggs 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 a band, 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 musical topics.

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. Vianello (talk) 05:04, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of The muggs

[edit]

I deleted this article because it did not assert notability as required under our guidelines for musicians. The bare minimum for coverage of music groups requires multiple, non-trivial media mentions; a look around for such mentions finds a few stories from around Detroit, their hometown, but they even suggest that the band hasn't progressed to the point where they're known outside of the area. I see the appearance on the Fox reality show, but in the past we've generally not kept articles on the also-rans in those shows. If the Muggs sign with a notable record label, start releasing albums and touring nationally, then they'll meet the guidelines. I still feel the article did not assert notability - as did another editor who tagged it for speedy deletion. If you feel differently, I'd suggest two options: write the article in your userspace, and let me know when it's done - I'd be glad to look it over to determine if it fits the guidelines; or request a deletion review to get other opinions. Tony Fox (arf!) 15:44, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As per our guidelines, as I pointed out above, musicians are considered to be notable when they've fulfilled some requirements: multiple non-trivial references in reliable sources; a charted hit on any national music chart; a record certified gold or higher in any country; extensive national/international touring (covered by a reliable source); two or more albums on a major or important indie label; contained a member who was once or later became a member of a notable band (though this often is considered a reason for redirect); has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or local scene of a city (as long as they meet verifiability requirements); has won or been nominated for a major music award or won or placed in a major music competition; has performed music for a notable work of media (TV/movie theme, etc.); has been placed in the national rotation of a major radio network; or has been the subject of a national half-hour or longer broadcast on radio or TV. I found no indication that The Muggs have met these requirements, most notably the lack of multiple non-trivial references indicating their notability. Again, if you disagree, feel free to write the article in your userspace for review or request a deletion review. Tony Fox (arf!) 18:45, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
