User talk:Sir Lysander

The article A Lush In Rio has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it 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 assert notability 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 bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. See also WP:V. NawlinWiki 18:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The main criterion, per Wikipedia:Verifiability, is that the notability of your journal has to have been recognized by reliable sources. This would mean references in other journals or press coverage, and links to those references so others can check them. Thanks, NawlinWiki 19:02, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are detailed discussions of the acceptability of sources at Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:Reliable sources. NawlinWiki 19:14, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. I have moved the last draft of the article to your userspace at User:Sir Lysander/A Lush In Rio for you to work on there. NawlinWiki 19:18, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
