This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, 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.

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Grace Church Port Macquarie. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Thank you. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 09:52, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
If this page Grace Church Port Macquarie is notable, then be assured that it will never be deleted. You have to remember that wikipedia has certain rules and all must have to follow them. It is not a valid argument that if article X can exist, then why not article Y. If article Y is really notable, it will not be deleted. If your article is really notable, it will not be deleted. But the article you created, you have not given any reference by which its notability can be established. You better expand the article and provide references by which its notability can be proved.

[edit] Grace Church Port Macquarie
Hi, Topsort123! Grace Church Port Macquarie has been deleted again. You may want to read through some of the linked pages in the "Welcome" message above. Specifically, Wikipedia has a policy of including things, people, and places that are "Notable". What defines notable can be found on Wikipedia's Notability guideline. When/if you create the article on Grace Church again, you'll want to make sure you have something in the article that says *why* the church is notable. As well, it's better to have sources that say stuff about the church. I hope that helps! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 15:19, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
