[edit] Notability of Livebrick
The article Livebrick has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.
Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. - KrakatoaKatie 07:08, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Little context in Filmcow
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Filmcow, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Filmcow is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Filmcow, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] Your message re: Filmcow
"If someone who has a series of famous videos can't have a wiki article about their company" - but are they famous? According to your article.. they made some videos, and some people watched them. Good on them. But look at some of the other filmmakers you said we should delete if we delete Filmcow: Smosh references feature articles about them from Time magazine and the BBC! Brookers has a feature article in The Boston Globe. Filmcow currently references.. Filmcow's website, Filmcow's forums, Filmcow's blog, Filmcow's videos..
Wikipedia's standard for notability is: "A topic is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." That's clearly the case for Smosh and Brookers. If Filmcow are similarly famous, then surely it's the case for them too? Find the newspaper and magazine articles about them, reference them in the article, and I guarantee you, all problems with the article being deleted will vanish immediately. --Stormie (talk) 21:27, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
