Proposed deletion of Marcie Leeds

The article Marcie Leeds has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Speedy deletion nomination of Marcie Leeds

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Marcie Leeds requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion

Thank you for helping to build Wikipedia-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia.

I'm sorry, but this has been deleted as meeting WP:CSD. Generally, articles are speedily deleted when there is no assertion of significance or they fall into things to avoid.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information. That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written about the subject. Searching Google is the best place to start. Sometimes articles are deleted because they contain content copyrighted elsewhere. Such content can be used as a source of information, but the content here must be completely rewritten from scratch. Any deficiencies with notability, sourcing, or things to avoid should be remedied before reposting as they can lead to repeated deletions.

For basic information on beginning to write an article see User:Dloh/new.

Sourcing is incredibly important for an encyclopedia. You will need reliable sources providing verifiable information. Be sure to list your sources at the bottom of the article.

For more general information about the deletion process, please see User:Dlohcierekim/deletion

If you believe the subject does in fact meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information, please contact me on my talk page.

If you wish to make test edits or work on the article before creating it, you can create a test page at User:Naldis253/sandbox and consider using the Article Wizard to guide you through the creation process. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page

Cheers, and happy editing. Dloh cierekim 23:55, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Orla gartland

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.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag.

If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. — Francophonie&Androphilie (Je vous invite à me parler) 17:36, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Before you do anything else (on here, that is...)

you need to read WP:BAND which is about musicians (not just bands). It tells you what we think is notable and what isn't. This is an encyclopaedia, you see, not social media like Facebook. We have standards for what gets articles and what doesn't. And we need things to be referenced, too. On Facebook, it's left up to you. We need to be able to verify that things are right. Look at WP:RS (reliable independent sources]] to see what is needed. Not many people on YouTube get articles, because so few meet our standards for the RS bit. (Or the BAND bit, either...) The number of views means very little - it's too easy to fiddle viewing figures. Your first article was deleted because it was a copyright violation. You need to read WP:COPYVIO about that. Basically, if it's been published somewhere (and being online is published), it can't be brought into here. There reasons - if you don't understand the policy tell me and I'll make it easier. There might have notability problems there too. Not every child performer is notable. Emma Watson, yes. Someone playing the part of a baby in a soap, no. In between, well, each case gets decided on its own merits - but if there are no RS, there's no article. That's 100% certain for living people. (99.5% certain if they're dead, but you're not allowed to shoot them to make them notable.) Do research before trying again, and ask for advice. We'd rather spend time helping people than deleting things. A lot of people won't ask for help. They quite often get blocked, because not listening to good advice can be regarded as vandalism. That's the way it is here - very friendly to newcomers if they ask for help and take advice, or liable to delete and block if they won't. Peridon (talk) 18:53, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
