The page was deleted because another user proposed its deletion. Proposed deletion (or "prod") tags stay on the article for five days, during which any user can remove the tag for any reason. This tag was not removed, so I deleted the article.

You are welcome to recreate it whenever you care to. I can provide you with a copy of the deleted text if you want, or you can start from scratch. I would suggest that you read up on our policy on notability and address the original reason for deletion, or it may be deleted again. You will need to cite secondary sources to show the subject's notability.

Feel free to drop me a line if you have any more questions. I'm not online much right now because I started a new job recently, but I do usually check my talk page on a somewhat regular basis. Natalie (talk) 23:23, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Delivery to that email address failed. I pasted the original article text below. If you decide to use any of this writing verbatim it would be best to actually restore the article so you can make your changes to that article, since it preserves the editing history and gives credit to other editors for their work. If you're going to write completely from scratch, just start the new article at your leisure.
Original article:
Buzztard is a free software project to create a Buzz clone. It is based on the GStreamer media frame-work. The graphical editor uses Gtk for its GUI. The architecture supports song import modules. Besides the own native format, Buzz songs can be loaded already. A wrapper that allows to use the existing buzz-machine binaries under x86 linux is also in work.
A first version has been released in October 2006. A monthly newsletter informs about progress.
First releases will likely run on GNU/Linux only. The target for this is to resemble the functionality of the original Buzz tracker. Any help with the project is highly welcome.
I would also suggest avoiding phrases like the last sentence. Wikipedia is not the right place to solicit help. Drop me a line if you have any other questions or need anything further. Natalie (talk) 23:20, 22 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Buzztard

edit
 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Buzztard, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? -- lucasbfr talk 19:51, 1 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
