Notability of Deuce Snowboards

A tag has been placed on Deuce Snowboards requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 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. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 21:46, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Help

{{Helpme}}

I am trying to find the forum/format in which to contest the removal of the Deuce Snowboards page. Is this the page??

(RenaisMan (talk) 05:37, 2 July 2008 (UTC))

You could make an entry at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, but that's usually done while the article still exists. But, as far as I know, that is the best place. —EncMstr (talk) 05:51, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I've put some (hopefully helpful !) hints here Wikipedia:Editor_assistance/Requests#Complete_deletion,_and_no_warning :-) CultureDrone (talk) 08:50, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Your user page

Having read your comment, your user page can be used to give a welcome message, tell other people a bit about yourself, your interests etc., but it's not mandatory to have anything on there. For examples, just click on any editors username, and you should be taken to their userpage - they vary between nothing at all, to vast multicoloured essays. :-) CultureDrone (talk) 18:09, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Message for you

Thanks for your message, see User talk:Athaenara#Snowboard articles for my reply. — Athaenara ✉ 19:19, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

WP:EAR

As I just posted at WP:EAR, I think the onus is on you to improve these 2 pages sooner rather than later. Otherwise, they're at risk of being zapped again. Please feel free to post again at WP:EAR or at my talk page if you need help. --AndrewHowse (talk) 14:22, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Deuce Snowboards

A tag has been placed on Deuce Snowboards, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more 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 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. Plastikspork (talk) 17:02, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
