Speedy deletion of TalentTrove

A tag has been placed on TalentTrove requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.

Renaming pages

Yes, you will need to be "autoconfirmed" - that is to say, 4 days and 10 edits (to any pages, I believe) into your editing career. Renaming a page is quite simple: it's known as "moving" the page. Bunging that into the search box will give you WP:MOVE which is a bit long winded, but fairly understandable (in essence: click the "Move" tab to the right of "history"). If you want, I (or any other editor really) can do it for you, just let me / them know. - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 16:41, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Just spotted this; I'm not sure it needs a move/rename. Article naming conventions seem to suggest we use the most commonly-recognised name, which in this case is "TalentTrove". What might help is to create a redirect from Talent Trove to this article so that users searching for either term will find the article. Let me know if you think this will work. Cheers. --Rodhullandemu 17:28, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

(edit conflict) (I see you've beaten me to it) Actually Michael, TalentTrove is preferable to Talent Trove because the former is the term they use themselves. I've redirected the latter to the former just in case. I hope you don't mind.

p.s. Just a quick pointer with regards to the article: see WP:EL - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 17:30, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Check out Important points to remember #2, though it is only a guideline (and you won't be hanged for breaking it). - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 17:53, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
