Notability of Print Camp
The article Print Camp 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 bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Awyong J. M. Salleh 10:53, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Off to a bad start
Don't get stressed, Wikipedia's rule structure is incredibly complex but in the end it boils down to a few fundamental things:
- everything in Wikipedia must be stated from a neutral point of view
- everything in Wikipedia must be verifiable and attributable to reliable sources
- Wikipedia is not just a directory
What that means is that you need to show that your article is not just a directory entry, but that the subject as some encyclopaedic merit, as established by other people. Not CNet customer reviews, genuine substantial coverage in the tech press or newspapers. Otherwise we can't verify that it meets our core policies.
Please believe that you are not the first person to get off to a bad start like this. Take some time to read around the project, especially the Five Pillars of Wikipedia, and you will come to understand why we remove articles which lack strong sourcing. Guy (Help!) 09:35, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Why are only select companies or setups allowed to have articles about them and not others? What harm is there in writing stubs about related companies?uyi 09:51, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
