Speedy deletion nomination of West_Philly_White_Bulls

Hello Phillynews,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged West_Philly_White_Bulls for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, →Σ σ ς. 18:41, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

First off, I agree that it would be wise to avoid using their names until a verdict has been reached.

The most basic standard for inclusion in Wikipedia is not whether or not it exists, but notability - that is, whether or not the subject has received attention from the press or other reliable sources. Wikipedia is not a place to establish one's notability, and so an article that does not assert significance or importance can be speedily deleted.

If you would like the article's text given to you so you may work on it, send a message to Reaper Eternal (talk · contribs), who deleted it. →Σ σ ς. 07:54, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
