Hi
I placed the hangon tag on Future Earth Magazine, which is probably where you wanted it to go. You should though assert on the talk page of that article, Talk:Future Earth Magazine, why that magazine is important or significant – the information being true is not enough for an encyclopaedic article.
I hope that helps, and cheers, AmaltheaTalk 00:45, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, I noticed these two edits of yours which were misplaced, hangon-tags are supposed to be added to the article in question.
And although I contested the deletion on your behalf it still was deleted about an hour later because neither the article as it was nor its talk page had any indication of why the topic was important or significant.
If you want you can recreate the article, but be advised that all topics in this encyclopaedia must pass the inclusion standards, which for a magazine are outlined at WP:NOTABILITY: it needs to be covered significantly in reliable third-party sources. When I looked at the article at the time I didn't find any of that, but maybe you know of something? If you do you can ask one of the admins who deleted it (listed here) to give you the original content. I don't remember if there was anything unseful in it, but if you show them the source you found (i.e. show them a hint that it might be notable after all) they'll usually do it.
The reason for the whole thing is outlined at WP:VERIFIABILITY: information in articles must be verifiable in reliable sources, it's not enough to be true.
I hope that helps, if not please get back to me. Cheers, AmaltheaTalk 18:31, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
