Gbemi Olateru-Olagbegi

I notice that you tagged the page Gbemi Olateru-Olagbegi for speedy deletion under CSD A7. While that's a valid reason for speedy deletion in general, this page does not qualify for speedy deletion under that criterion because, besides the various indications of importance in the text, the article contains reliable sources, which is the most fundamental indication of importance and article can make, since the 'higher standard of notability looks to whether sources have written about a subject. If you still want the page to be deleted, please consider tagging it with a speedy deletion template which does apply, redirecting it to another page, propose the page for deletion if it appears to be an uncontroversial matter, or take the page to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion for discussion on the merits. Thanks! Template:Z5

Speedy deletion declined: Fuji music

Hello Ainakan. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Fuji music, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Article about a genre, not a musician or band, doesn't qualify for A7 speedy deletion. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 00:44, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Olatunde olalekan

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Olatunde olalekan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. DVdm (talk) 16:36, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

Regarding Speedy Deletion

Thank you for helping to build Misplaced Pages-- the world's largest free content encyclopedia.

I'm sorry, but this has been deleted as meeting one or more of the Categories for Speedy Deletion.

Generally, articles are speedily deleted when there is no assertion of significance or they fall into things to avoid or what Misplaced Pages is not.

Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet notability guidelines with reliable sources providing verifiable information. That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written about the subject.

Sometimes articles are deleted because they contain content copyrighted elsewhere. Such content can be used as a source of information, but the content here must be completely rewritten from scratch.

Any deficiencies with notability, sourcing, or things to avoid should be remedied before reposting as they can lead to repeated deletions.

If you want to try again, consider using the Article Wizard to guide you through the creation process and use the following links to find sources.Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Please see the following links that will be helpful in editing.

Cheers, and happy editing. Dlohcierekim 22:42, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

PS-- I would strongly recommend against recreating this w/o reliable sources with verifiable info. The seeming sources that were actually to wikipedia articles that did not support the content gave a false air of significance to the subject. I would strongly recommend against doing that again. Misplaced Pages articles may not be used to source articles. Dlohcierekim 22:46, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

Your edits,

while seemingly intended to be helpful are actually becoming disruptive. You need to not review pages and tag for deletion until you've had more experience with general editing. Thanks, Dlohcierekim 22:52, 1 December 2013 (UTC)
