Speedy deletion nomination of The Viking Yurt

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The Viking Yurt, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Your submission at Articles for creation: The Viking Yurt (December 3)

Latest comment: 8 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by MatthewVanitas was:

While this is potentially an interesting topic (and I need to ask my Park City friend if she's ever been to your place), we need to clear up some major misconceptions:

A restaurant Wikipedia page is about the restaurant, not for the restaurant.

That is, Wikipedia is not here to host an "About Us!!!" page for you, we are not advertising space, we are not a Yelp-type directory that lists hours and prices. Fundamentally, the article has to be something that would be of genuine interest to, say, someone living in Norway or Madagascar fifty years from now when the restaurant is long gone.

Anything that is only of interest to potential customers must be removed. We don't care about your hours, your cancellation policies (seriously dude???), alcohol policy, etc. Fundamentally, Wikipedia only cares about things that objective outside experts have found interesting. If Viking Cuisine Monthly did a feature on your Glogg, by all means put "VC rated TVY's glogg as the most historically authentic glogg in the Western hemisphere" and cite it to that specific article. If the Yale Review of Scandinavian Culture had an essay on fusion diaspora cuisine and spent a paragraph talking about how the restaurant cleverly targeted Swedish Americans through a viral campaign, cite that.

What we don't want is just stuff taken off TVY's website, and while it's okay to cite some basic facts to local newspapers, if there is simply no coverage of this restaurant other than its own site, Yelp-type directories, and local Park City news, then by definition it isn't (yet) significant enough to need a Wikipedia article.

Does this all make sense? Shoot me a line on my Talk page if you have any questions, and in all seriousness I'd probably visit your restaurant when I'm back in the US if I happen to find myself in Utah.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:

This submission's references do not adequately evidence the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If no additional reliable sources can be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
