Speedy deletion nomination of Weddings in the United States

A tag has been placed on Weddings in the United States requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

I have userfied your page here: User:MagggieR/Weddings in the United States. You can move it back to Weddings in the United States when you think it passes the this qualification (you may want to let me know when you want it moved and I'll do so for you guys). Thanks to the redirect created by the user who took interest in your article (which was redirected, not deleteD), you can see that there is some existing content at Wedding#North_American_customs which your group is welcome to incorporate into your article. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 21:52, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My advice is to work as good as you can, and try to finish the article and submit it to Good Article Review before the end of this week. I will certainly take into account that you are the most active person in the group! --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 02:55, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weddings in the United States

This has been on hold for well over a week. While some of my concerns have been addressed, I feel that the article is still not ready for GA status. If you can improve the article, feel free to renominate it; if you disagree with my assessment, you can request a reassessment. Cheers, Nikkimaria (talk) 00:38, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
