Proposed deletion of Commissioning (disambiguation) edit

 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Commissioning (disambiguation), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

duplicate of Commission, not useful as a search term

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Forship edit

 

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Forship, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of Forship 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 help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Just to let you know, if a company provides solutions, it cannot be mentioned in Wikipedia, regardless of how large it is or what else it provides.  Blanchardb -MeMyEarsMyMouth- timed 13:10, 21 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Forship article edit

Hello Blanchrdb. First of all, as a regular Wikipedia collaborator and enthusiast, I must say that I am glad to observe that Wikipedia has very effective mechanisms to watch over new content and to check whether or not it complies with the established rules. I take the oportunity to ask your help about the following points:

  • After receiving the speedy deletion notice on Forship Engenharia, reading more about Wikipedia criteria and observing similar approved articles, I have implemented some additions and corrections to the article. Soon after the speedy delection tag was removed, being replaced by a primary sources one. I have then added some references related to Forship. Please advise whether these are sufficient or if any further consideration is still applicable.
  • I have noticed that you have eliminated the "and solutions" expression of the first paragraph. I dont't have any objections to it, but I would like to better understand (a) what exactly is the Wikipedia interpretation of a "solution" and (b) what motivates considering it as advertising, in contrast to "products" or "services"?

Thanks in advance. - Antonio Prates (talk) 14:22, 22 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

The article now meets our requirements for notability and verifiability. As for the term "solutions," it is typically used in promotional material (and in Wikipedia I haven't seen it used by anyone who doesn't have a close connection with the subject, unless we're talking about a chemical solution, e.g. salt in water). It implies a claim of automatic customer satisfaction, and a dissatisfied client would basically reword the sentence in his mind, replacing this term with the term non-solution. The term therefore has an inherent promotional connotation and must therefore be avoided in encyclopedic coverage. That's why products and services are preferred, as they do not imply a claim of value. -- Blanchardb -MeMyEarsMyMouth- timed 02:27, 23 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the explanation. It is clear and convinging enough for me. Please tell me now what is next step. Do I take the primarysources tag from the article myself, or should I wait for an admin to do it? --Antonio Prates (talk) 14:06, 23 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Scrivenlask edit

 

The article Scrivenlask has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No sources attached, absolutely nothing found in a search.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:55, 14 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Beeblebrox. I agree with the deletion of this article. I have created it based on information received from a friend, but after consulting with him I haven't received any really convincing source. Can you direct the deletion solicitation to any Wikipedia admin? Antonio Prates (talk) 03:10, 15 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
