Notability of The big fash

A tag has been placed on The big fash 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. Thebigfash (talk) 02:42, 20 June 2008 (UTC) The Big Fash is a country singer from the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.

He has played in Nova Scotia, Scotland, Australia, Latvia, Ukraine, Poland, Germany, Lithuania, and more. He has many fans, who go to see him play including me. I felt it right to do an article about him because he is touring, and recording cds. People should know about him surely! Just about as much as any other singer on wikipedia! Speedy deletion? Why? I don't get that!! If you have any advice as to what I could change, I will - the information came from Fash Stewarts My space, and hearing him talk at gigs. So the reference is Fash Stewart.

Your message on my talk page

Thank you for your message. First of all please be civil when leaving messages for other users. Second, I did not delete The big fash - I nominated it for deletion, the article was reviewed by an admin and deleted by that admin. In fact it was deleted by a different admin each of the two times you created the article. This is not bias, it is an implementation of WP's policies on notability, particularly WP:MUSIC. You can ask for a review of the deletion at WP:DRV. Thank you. – ukexpat (talk) 13:29, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
