• I'm the person who wrote this article, and I'm a member of the team, thats why I put it here. - SonicChaosBlaze

• Strong Delete per nom. And, Sonic, if you don't want your names to be reviled, it's better not to reveal them in this sort of context. Although we probably are going to re-veil them. Hmm... :) Tevildo 15:07, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Well thanks for telling me about my spelling, but I never said we did want them revealed, we only revealed our first names, thats all - Sonic

• I don't really understand why you want to delete my article, I mean since I'm a member of the team its perfectly fine, right? - Sonic
• Delete per nom. Not notable enough, and actually you re encouraged not to write articles about yourself. JPD (talk) 15:14, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Well I wrote about, OUR TEAM, because no one else knows about us, so I wanted to put out information on us. Come on I even got permision from my the rest of the team. - Sonic
  • If you don't remember anything else on this page, do remember this: Become famous elsewhere, before putting a page about yourself on Wikipedia. If you're not famous elsewhere first, no page for you, sorry. Kimchi.sg 15:24, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Not-notable now and they are "currently working its first project". So any claim to notability would be crystal balling. Sonic, see WP:VAIN, WP:BIO and WP:WEB --IslaySolomon 15:18, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• But it is confirmed that we are working on our first project. Besides I've seen stuff like this all over the place, and there's never been a proposle for deletion for them - Sonic
• Strong Delete per nom. Mr. Sonic, whether you had permission from the rest of your team or not, Wikipedia does not exist as a forum for advertising your own projects. When and if you gain notoriety in your field, and are written about in the media, someone will write an article about you for Wikipedia. Until such time, you are not notable enough. ---Charles 15:21, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Comment Sonic, see "Criteria for web content" under WP:WEB. I'm really sorry mate, but your web site just doesn't meet these criteria. --IslaySolomon 15:23, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• COME ON, I've seen other pages like mine and they don't get deleted, so I got to actually be famous to have my own article about my team, thats not fair, and I'm not trying to promote us, I just want to put out info on us. - Sonic
  • You can use MySpace or Geocities to put info about yourself and your group. And it probably won't get deleted so easily. Kimchi.sg 15:27, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Well I was planing to keep updating it as time went on, man I wish I could just delete the stupid thing on the article......Oh well I'm going to defend my article.-Sonic

• Comment With respect, if you're setting about writing an encyclopedia entry about yourself before you've finished your first animation you've probably got your priorities wrong. Also, wikipedia is a terrible way to get yourself heard about. The Mediawiki software has a very inflexable search engine, the only people who'll be able to find your page will be you. And anyone has heard of you can go to your website. --IslaySolomon 15:37, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• So your telling me it was completly pointless for me to write about this, even though I told my friends about it on my teams fourm- Sonic

• Comment Well yes, essentially. The point is you haven't actually done anything of note yet. So what sets you appart from every other group of people in the world? Wikipedia is not a free host, blog, webspace provider or social networking site and it is not an indiscriminate collection of information. --IslaySolomon 15:45, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• I guess your right....I just really wanted to have one of these for my team mates.
• Comment Well if that's the case then the best thing you can do is devote this time to putting as much effort as possible into your animations. If they achieve notability then they may find their own way on to wikipedia. --IslaySolomon 15:52, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Alright, go ahead and delete it.....- Sonic
• Delete as per Sonic DavidHumphreys ^{SPEAK TO ME}ABOUT_{THE THINGS I MESSED UP} 15:56, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
