A tag has been placed on The chasing game, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, 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 Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the 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. esanchez, Camp Lazlo fan! 03:21, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: The chasing game

Although there are articles on many bands in Wikipedia, they do not exist for promotional purposes. Such articles have to meet certain content requirements, of particular importance is that they must provide a claim of notability. A quick breakdown of criteria that could be used to assess notability is available at WP:MUSIC. Simply writing a few paragraphs on a band you like, while a nice gesture, doesn't really provide any helpful information on them. Further, if the content is overtly advertorial, then the article reads like promotional material and qualifies for deletion under WP:CSD#G11.

Note that I have no beef with you, but I do harbor editorial concerns over this article. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 00:31, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
