Hi Chris, I´m new to the whole wikipedia environment so maybe I inadvertedly made some mistake in my article about the band [[Malavera]] (The band IS actually important and it isn´t signed because is independent). If you could please let me know why exactly you speed deleted the article or where did I do wrong so I can correct it I would very much appreciate it. Thanks! |

::I did part of this work for you and applied toe good ole [[WP:Google Test|Google Test]] to see what I could find about your band. Search hits for [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Malavera Malvera] returned only 3,070 an incredibly low number of hits. Adding [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Malavera+%2B+band band to the search] only retreived 65 hits an even lower number. For comparison, a very highly notable band (I.E. [[Metallica]] [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Metallica returns 59 million hits] and a lesser known metalcore band [[Killswitch Engage]] [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=killswitch+engage returns over 3 million hits]. Do you ahve any reliable sources that google did not unearth? If not, then that is why your bands article was deleted. In short, we cannot take YOUR word that your band is notable (of course to you it is). The question is, is it encylopedic?[[User:Chrislk02|<font color="1E90FF">'''Chris'''</font>]][[Special:Contributions/Chrislk02|<font color="4169E1">'''lk02'''</font>]] <sup>[[User talk:Chrislk02|<font color="2A52BE">Chris Kreider</font>]]</sup> 21:05, 5 January 2009 (UTC) |

Notice: If you are here because I speedy deleted your article, please do not email me about it unless it contains sensitive or private information that you would not like to discuss here. I WILL NOT reply to run of the mill emails answering your question, "Why did you delete my bands page, we are not signed yet but we really are notable," or other similar complaints. If you have a problem, post it here so everybody can see, and review it themselves if they so desire. If you post a complaint here please make sure you link to the article in question (even if it is a red link). I sometimes delete hundereds of articles a day and unless you tell me what you are talking about and make it easy for me to find it, it is unlikley I will address your concerns. Thanks!

Chris, I'm not sure that the block was the best way to handle it, it was sometime after the initial statement, I, amongst others had left a counseling message on his page, and he hadn't responded. I'm just afraid that this will trigger a belief by him that he's being piled on and harassed, which will just continue this situation. I'm not going to undo it (it wouldn't be helpful at all, the damage has already been done), but I think that we should have let it lie, perhaps with a warning that further actions would be met with a preventative block. Just my two cents on the issue. SirFozzie (talk) 20:26, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of The Canadian Business Journal pageHi there. This page I created, The Canadian Business Journal, was deleted for "blatant copyright violation," but I'm not sure why! Could you maybe let me know what the problem was and I can fix it? It's the first page I've created, so I'm really not sure what went wrong.
