From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A tag has been placed on Coyote Bones requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears 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 an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
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 page (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. Wikidudeman (talk) 19:15, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Your recent edits
Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 20:24, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Commenting on AFDs
Hey there. Saw your comments on the Coyote Bones AFD page and just thought I'd drop a note. I know it's probably upsetting that your article is being considered for deletion, but in a case like this it's a very good idea to work at showing how it meets the guidelines being cited by the nominator, in this case the music guidelines. If you have media coverage regarding the band that meets reliable sources - essentially, an established magazine or newspaper having written about them - make sure to point that out in the discussion. I've found a few sources and pointed them out, but as I'm a little on the fence right now (I'm far more comfortable with bands who have released albums on a reasonably-known record label, indie or not, than those that haven't), it would be good for you to provide even more where possible. Anything that might really confirm the touring would be a useful addition, for example. I'll keep an eye on the discussion to see what turns up. Cheers! Tony Fox (arf!) 20:37, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
