A tag has been placed on Motherwell South Parish Church, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing 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 its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Brianyoumans 10:00, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] No Personal Attacks
Please see the Wikipedia policy on personal attacks. I'm sorry you were upset by the deletion of the article. If the notable thing about the church is actually the building, perhaps you should create a new article that is about the building and its history. Wikipedia is not a directory, and I marked the article for deletion because it made no assertion of notability and seemed to be merely a copy of information from a local church's bulletin or website. I'm not sure where you got the idea that I am anti-religious or anti-church; I have gotten some church articles deleted, but rather few in comparison to other things. I am presently AFDing a large block of Hewlett-Packard product model articles - does that make me anti-technology? I am simply a deletionist; one who believes that there are things which belong in an encyclopedia, and things which do not. --Brianyoumans 18:45, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
