Happy editing, -Fnlayson (talk) 21:35, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks so much Fnlayson. I am currently feeling a little overwhelmed and disillusioned with the process as I have just created my first page and it is already tagged for deletion despite trying to be, if anything, over cautious and give lots of citations. Would you please help to isolate the specifics of why my Alley of the Dolls (band) page is being scrutinized to heavily instead of just allowing it to be improved over time. There are lots of other sources, reviews, and interviews of the band out there...but many are in Spanish and Portuguese due to the bands popularity in South America...so I tried to keep the articles chosen from English sources as is requested by Wiki. Any assistance would be hugely appreciated, just trying to get the band established on Wiki. MusicForeverYours (talk) 12:48, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
The article Alley of the Dolls (band) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No evidence of meeting WP:GNG
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:38, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

- In what way is there no evidence of meeting General notability guideline? There are multiple and varied sources cited along with the bands website, and interview citations to confirm some of the more personal attributes. If there are specific area's of concern please point them out as I can most likely find additional links and citations to accompany. This is a new band and I would really like to get the page started so more fans can add to it. Please give clear instruction on how to improve, or assist in adding to the page. I worked really hard on this. MusicForeverYours (talk) 01:54, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
