Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... (we are in the process of creating a page for this duo and intend to provide sources to back up all biographical, musical and release history for this group.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Shawnaustin69 (talk • contribs)

Shawnaustin69, just to be absolutely clear; while I've declined the speedy element of deletion, I want to make it absolutely clear that if this article isn't thoroughly referenced to reliable sources very quickly, I'm going to delete it. Wikipedia isn't an advertising portal, and we only provide information which is sourced from elsewhere. I note that you're continuing to add unsourced material to this page, which is something Wikipedia takes an extremely dim view of. ‑ Iridescent 21:17, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

We have received your messages and apologize for any wrongdoing. We wish to work with you to keep our page on site and to meet your criteria. Could you please advise what to do in this case? Thanks--Shawnaustin69 (talk) 16:34, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

Shawnaustin69, read the reliable sources page I linked above, first of all—we can only accept content which is referenced to reliable sources (which does not include user-generated sites like discogs.com and other wikis). Wikipedia is a tertiary source, which means we only summarize content which has been written elsewhere and don't publish original research or unsourced material. This page contains some very good pointers regarding what we're looking for, while Wikipedia:Teahouse is specifically designed to help readers who aren't familiar with writing on Wikipedia and the hosts there will be happy to answer your questions. ‑ Iridescent 16:51, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
