From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The article Funtastic! has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Please do not add unhelpful and non-constructive information to Wikipedia, as you did to Funtastic. Your edits could be considered vandalism, and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. -FisherQueen (Talk) 22:57, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to create inappropriate pages such as Funtastic!, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. NawlinWiki 17:10, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Your article is being deleted for failing two Wikipedia guidelines. One, summarized at WP:ATTRIBUTION, says essentially that groups whose notability is not established by reliable independent sources don't get articles. See also WP:BAND. The second is that Wikipedia is not a promotional tool. See WP:SPAM and WP:COI. So, it's not enough to say "This is a really neat band and I want to help them get more popular."

A press release from this group's publisher is not an independent source. If there are other independent sources showing this group's notability, it's your job to put them in the article. It's not enough to post an unsourced article and say "The sources are out there, you can find them if you try." Again, see WP:ATTRIBUTION. NawlinWiki 17:38, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Please read WP:ATTRIBUTION. It'll be a lot easier than me having to write it out verbatim in response to your questions. NawlinWiki 17:46, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

The Wikipedia policies are there for a reason: so that they can apply equally to everyone without individual editors having to give their own interpretations. If you can't take the time to click the links and read the encyclopedia's policies, you shouldn't be posting articles. NawlinWiki 17:58, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
