Speedy deletion declined: Looky (Rainbow Friends)

Hello TheWikiToby. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Looky (Rainbow Friends), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Notability is not a speedy deletion criterion. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 17:51, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

@Whpq I was requesting more so an WP:IAR/WP:SNOW delete rather than just notability. Seven editors have all decided on a delete in the AFD, so I don't see any reason the discussion should last longer than even a day imo. TheWikiToby (talk) 17:58, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

A snow delete is not a speedy deletion. You may ask another admin for an early close. -- Whpq (talk) 18:00, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

Can you do early early close please? TheWikiToby (talk) 18:01, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
