Wikipedia gets a lot of content added about bands. We actually have pretty [[Wikipedia:Notability_(music)#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles|strict criteria]] that determines what kind of musical groups can be included on Wikipedia. Your article about your band was deleted not just because it didn't meet the criteria, but because the article didn't make any claim of notoriety. Unless your band has been noticed by national media, it's unlikely to be included on Wikipedia. Sorry.--v/r - [[User:TParis|T]][[User_talk:TParis|P]] 08:02, 29 April 2016 (UTC) |

A tag has been placed on [[:Tomorrow People (Band)]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not [[WP:CCS|credibly 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 [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about [[Wikipedia:Notability|what is generally accepted as notable]]. |

Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Michaelkamen, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome! v/r - TP 08:00, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
Bands
[edit]Wikipedia gets a lot of content added about bands. We actually have pretty strict criteria that determines what kind of musical groups can be included on Wikipedia. Your article about your band was deleted not just because it didn't meet the criteria, but because the article didn't make any claim of notoriety. Unless your band has been noticed by national media, it's unlikely to be included on Wikipedia. Sorry.--v/r - TP 08:02, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
Michaelkamen, you are invited to the Teahouse!
