Hello everyone, I am very new at this so please go easy on me. If I have made a mistake or anything just let me know and I will try to be better:)
The article Kashi kicks has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 indicate the notability of the subject 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. NawlinWiki (talk) 14:41, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Ok, im going to recreate the kashi kicks page. I can sort of see why it was deleted before, but i believe the company is notable enough to merit its own entry. I have read the wikipedia notability guide for companies and have collected a number of secondary sources that you may find useful.

their web site also appears to feature a few videos about them on various news channels.
I am not sure how to use these sources to show how the company is notable within the actual entry itself but i will try anyway. If the resulting page is not to wiki standerds, please work with me so that it can. Im am also trying to maintain a neutral pov as well, so i am really trying to make this a proper entry.
The article Kashi Kicks has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-notable, possibly defunct company. Searches do not turn up any coverage in reliable sources, making it a failure of the WP:GNG and WP:NCORP.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
