Speedy deletion nomination of YoungGodSpeaks

A tag has been placed on YoungGodSpeaks 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 person or group of people, 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 biographies. 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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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.

I am trying to create a page and don't understand why it is being deleted.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you must sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 04:56, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"YoungGodSpeaks"

Please stop attempting to promote this person, who I presume is you or someone you are closely associated with. Wikipedia is not an advertising platform. You have asked many users what the problem with the article is including me—have you read the many notices posted above and the links they include? While we can distill for you what those links say, I'm not sure what the purpose would be since you have already been referred to those pages. Please review them. In the meantime I have protected the article title from recreation since you have done so many times now.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 05:41, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you read those pages and internalized them you would not be posting the material you did at my talk page. No one has anything against Bongo Flava culture and its artists. What we are against is having articles that violate the fundamental dictates of an encyclopedia, which, being a tertiary source that synthesizes already published, reliable sources, is not the place for articles on subjects that have not already been published about. In fact, one of our core content inclusion policies, verifiability requires that information in articles be written from previously published reliable sources. In lockstep, another core content guideline, notability, requires that the subject of an article be substantively discussed in previously published, reliable sources. Reliable sources do not include social networking sites like Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, blogs, forums, other wikis or other sites where the content is user posted content and so on—that is, the types of sources you were citing in the article. If you write a neutrally worded, article using reliable sources the article will not be deleted. Failing to actually read the notices I and other have posted and instead willfully choosing to interpret these deletions as part of some prejudice against your topic is going to get you nowhere and is a good way to get blocked from editing entirely.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 18:58, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
