This happened to me back in college. I authored a couple pages for some bands that I was in to, probably spent weeks pulling together history, lineup, albums, eps, etc. only to have them deleted unceremoniously with no recourse. That was my first and last attempt to contribute to wikipedia.

Same, I understand the editors/admins can't be experts on every topic but just because THEY don't think something is notable doesn't mean most people don't either.

  In general, it should be clear from the article if the subject is notable. Admins don't have to be an expert, they just have to read the article. Notable is not the same as popular.

    Notability is arguably even more subjective than popularity.
