Notability of Octane ok

You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

The article Octane ok has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 11:47, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Octane ok

A tag has been placed on Octane ok 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 or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Hey there Coheed08 :). It seems like a lot of the things which you say making this band notable are coming up. Wikipedia doesn't predict the future, so to be notable the band has to have actually done something significant already. You said in the article that thy were unsigned, and they also haven't released their debut album yet. While WP:MUSIC is higher standard than CSD A7 (what the article was deleted as). We use WP:MUSIC to define notability on Wikipedia. I suggest you check the band against the list at WP:BAND. Do you think it passes? - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 13:16, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I think that's enough so that the page shouldn't be deleted under A7, so you may recreate it, but I'm doubtful as to if it would pass a deletion discussion. Check with User:NawlinWiki (the admin who deleted after the second creation) before creating it. - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 17:36, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
