[edit] Pikey Corner

I've marked your article Pikey corner as "proposed for deletion" (prod) as I do not believe it meets the criteria for noteworthiness laid down by Wikipedia (see WP:NOTABLE). This will be for an administrator to decide when he/she reviews the prod, which will be in about 5 days time.

I'm also concerned that the article is unverifiable. Why is it called "Pikey corner"? I can find only one reference to this phrase in Google (see this link), and that is in a blog. Blogs are not usually accepted as citable evidence by Wikipedia.

Finally, does "Pikey Corner" refer only to Tescos, or any supermarket chain? If Tescos only, the article may be seen as advertising, which is also not acceptable on Wikipedia.

Please don't take these criticisms personally. As first articles go, this is a lot better than some. And perhaps there is a need for information about reduced rate shelves in the Supermarket article. But please don't refer to it as Pikey corner, unless you can produce evidence that such a term is widespread.

If you want to ask me anything more about this, need any other help, either respond below, or on my talk page. And Welcome to Wikipedia! — Tivedshambo (talk to me/look at me/ignore me) —  17:13, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
