Speedy deletion of Gangi (musician)

A tag has been placed on Gangi (musician) 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 a band, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance 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 musical topics.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

• As this band has been deleted by an admin and the principle songwriter of the group has a protected page on Wikipedia due to re-creations by other users... I will wait until I have sufficient, incontestable references to re-write this article. UltraCaution (talk) 14:35, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Nonsense of June Panic

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on June Panic, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because June Panic provides no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting June Panic, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

• Interesting that the text "June Panic has a release on the Secretly Canadian label." is considered to be "unsalvageably incoherent" material. UltraCaution (talk) 14:14, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

• I have provided some very strong references that I would hope show notability. UltraCaution (talk) 14:52, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi, UltraCaution. It's evident that you are making good faith efforts to improve wikipedia. Your policy of creating stubs and then expecting others to do the research that validates them is, however, unhelpful. The fact that more experienced editors are negating your efforts should not offput you. It merely indicates that you are yet to fully comprehend the ways and means of creating encyclopedic content. You should bone up on the policies and guidelines above, and watchlist a few lively articles and see how they grow. Please particularly study the sections on citing sources and verifiability - just adding a couple of external links to an article is not sufficient. Wwwhatsup (talk) 16:29, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Redirects

Another thing. I see you creating redirects for xxxx (band) to xxxx (musician) or vice versa, when just one or even no link exists. In general, if you find bad links rather than create redirects, you should just fix the links. Wwwhatsup (talk) 16:57, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Anyone typing in "Panda Bear" would be redirected to Giant Panda, which contains a disambiguation statement that links to Panda Bear (musician). Well done with signing your comment. Wwwhatsup (talk) 17:31, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
