A tag has been placed on
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. 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.

I'm not skeptical that it's a real band. I could care less if it was a real band; what I care about is if it's a notable band, and the article simply does not make that assertion to me. The article doesn't present anything that asserts it's notability. 02:14, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
Feedback
I notice that you have been adding year links to various articles. Although this shows good spirit, doing so is generally discouraged. For more information, see:
- Manual of Style (dates and numbers)
- Only make links that are relevant to the context
Other than that, don't forget to write

re: Guestbook
Actually, I got the guestbook idea from the Homestar runner Wiki, where they were once very common but are no longer allowed (not on principle, but in practice their Recent Changes was being clogged with guestbook signings.) Y0u | Y0ur talk page 16:54, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
AfD nomination of Woodstock 2009
Are you aware that most of this article is a cut & paste (and thus a copyright violation) from the band's website? Can you rewrite this in your own words? Joyous! | Talk 04:17, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
- Also, in the future, please use the clean up. Seattlenow04:39, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
I know it wasn't your copyright problem, but I wanted to give you a heads-up before I submit the article for deletion, in case you wanted to try and fix it. Joyous! | Talk 12:02, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the Wilde link
I have noticed that on July 10, 2007, you tagged the album page of Age Eternal by Middian for deletion. I am curious as to why it was tagged for deletion in the first place and why it is still tagged in that manner. I fixed up the review section, so that it could be in the Appropriate place and put the other reviews with no official rating in the extrnal link section, but it's still on for deletion. I don't know why it's still up for deletion, so that's why I asked you, since you're the dude who tagged it in the first place.
Sincerely,
- If you'll read the AfD for that album, the band's article had been deleted. Before the AfD closed, the band's article was re-created and I withdrew the nomination. I guess the admin who closed it neglected to remove the tag from the album's article. Feel free to remove the AfD template from that article. Precious Roy 17:14, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Please note
Please note that you do not need to put [[ ]] around every single band or band member. If there is no link to that band, person or thing in wikipedia, then you should not make it a link. This only makes it appear in red and when someone clicks on it, they go nowhere special. Only put [[ ]] around things that have pages here on wikipedia. Navnløs 21:58, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Odin is my lord and master
I don't like organized religion, but I do have an affinity for paganism. I don't take the stuff too seriously, though, and there are times I will claim to worship satan as well, or things of this nature, but that is for fun and shock value, as I don't believe in satan. As for encyclopaedia metallum, I rarely use the site, but I find it useful at times to look up certain things like discography. Navnløs 17:52, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- Also, there's actually no reason to join metal-archives, unless you want to add bands to their database. Navnløs 18:08, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Good stuff, actually I'm surprised Porcupine Tree doesn't have a page on metal-archives...but if it's not there, there's most likely a reason and they may not allow you to add them. Navnløs 22:20, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

It's a simple trick. See User:Lupin/Anti-vandal tool. One of the features it provides is "Live spellcheck", which flashes up recent edits (within seconds) that have words misspelled. The wonder is not how fast I caught it, but what I was doing for nearly 5 minutes before I fixed it; I don't remember. Happy editing! Chris the speller (talk) 02:21, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: Demo 98/99 and Fhtagn nagh Yog-Sothoth
Thanks for your message. Currently, music articles have to meet notability guidelines outlined at
"THERE ARE ENOUGH ALBUMS RELEASED TO AVOID AN A7!"
Your edit note, in removing a {{db-a7}} template was "DECLINE SPEEDY, THERE ARE ENOUGH ALBUMS RELEASED TO AVOID AN A7!". A7 is not about notability. A7 is about stating the importance or significance of an article in its lead, which is something that isn't done in the Aborted article. The number of albums would help establish notability if notability were the reason for an AfD, but that isn't the case. — X S G 02:53, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- I actually didn't want the Aborted article to be deleted at all; I wanted the folks who chose to create and maintain the article to alter the article conform to Wikipedia's policies. The Aborted article had already withstood an AfD due to notability (as it should have; it fulfills Wikipedia's notability guidelines for a band), however it wasn't properly written. I anticipate that at some point someone will attempt to recreate the Aborted article. I'll check in to make sure that the article conforms to Wikipedia's policies. If it does, I'll leave it alone. If it doesn't, I'll try to help out either by adding content if I can find it or by adding discussion on what should be modified to improve the article. As for using a Proposed Deletion (prod) template, prods should be used for uncontroversial deletions. Deleting Aborted would have been controversial and therefore prod is inappropriate. Once a well-written Aborted article is established, it will pass any prod or AfD. — X S G 17:08, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- Also, when you added your note on my talk page, it became evident that you're unfamiliar with the <nowiki>...</nowiki> tags. If you place a template name within these tags, the template name will appear rather than Wikipedia inserting the template. For example: {{subst:prod|reason for deletion}}. I hope this helps you out in the future. — X S G 17:11, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
