Wakeup.Feelsomething[edit]

A tag has been placed on Wakeup.Feelsomething requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. justinfr (talk) 17:23, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've also tagged Zasz (band) for the same reason as above. justinfr (talk) 17:28, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Deletion Tags[edit]

As the articles' creator, please do not remove speedy deletion tags, like you did with this edit and this edit. Instead, put the {{hangon}} tag below the notice. justinfr (talk) 17:49, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits[edit]

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when.

Article deletions[edit]

You will have to talk to Orangemike, the administrator who deleted the page. I just recommended it be deleted, he did the actual deleting. Before you recreate, I suggest you read WP:MUSIC and ensure that your band meets those requirements. justinfr (talk) 18:09, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Onewiththefunk. You have new messages at Justinfr's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Neither of the deleted articles were about bands which meet our minimum standards (which you will find at WP:MUSIC). Self-published albums and a single review on a non-notable website are not sufficient; neither is availability on iTunes or other online vendors. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:38, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

what about an ondemand show? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Onewiththefunk (talk • contribs)

"On-demand shows" are like blogs: anybody can have one, they prove nothing. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:45, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

by that logic a wikipedia article would be no different... an ondemand show is a media company broadcast (comcast) so i believe it qualifies!— Preceding unsigned comment added by Onewiththefunk (talk • contribs)

Correct! If there is no evidence of alleged notability of somebody except a Wikipedia article about them, that article is unacceptable, should never have been created, and will be deleted by the first admin who spots it. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:58, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

alright heres the evidence then http://collect.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=music.showDetails&Band_Show_ID=34891514&friendid=92423484 can u put it back up now? Onewiththefunk (talk) 19:07, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What part of "On-demand shows" are like blogs: anybody can have one, they prove nothing." did you not understand? Read WP:MUSIC. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:32, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This page in a nutshell:

A musician or ensemble is notable if it has had some sort of recognition by professional organizations, such as music charts.
Notability is met if the musician has been the subject of a broadcast by a media network.

Broadcast by a media show. It meets the requirements, whats the hold up?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Onewiththefunk (talk • contribs)

That's not a media network. VH1 is a media network, MTV is a media network; MySpace is a social networking website.--Orange Mike | Talk 19:55, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes but Comcast is? its not broadcast on myspace, thats just list of the event. its on COMCAST Onewiththefunk (talk) 20:53, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, it's on Comcast Spotlight, an advertising service. --Orange Mike | Talk 21:00, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comcast Spotlight is the advertising sales division of Comcast Cable. its broadcast off comcast. it plays on tv. it meets the requirements.

Advertisements are not evidence of notability. By definition, they are something anybody can purchase. It's the difference between purchasing an ad in the New York Times and having an article being written about you in the Times. --Orange Mike | Talk 12:45, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
