Speedy deletion nomination of Pago (Company) edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Pago (Company), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which 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 guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Please note, this article suffers from many things, including a lack of notability, references, and your apparent conflict of interest. You would do well to read WP:FIRSTARTICLE before trying again (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 22:30, 29 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

BWilkins - I read the WP:FIRSTARTICLE and I've updated the page, unfortunately I think you deleted it before I was able to give the valuable information about the company. I'm not trying to create a bad wiki page :) I just want this to work.

Christine, you have missed the part about notability. There is nothing that even remotely suggests that this company has any notability - Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory. The company actually has to have done something important to be encyclopedic. As well, based on your name, you are related to the business - this is a no-no, and in fact often makes it impossible to a) see non-notability, and b) write non-promotionally. Neither version that you have written comes anywhere close to meeting vital requirements for Wikipedia encyclopedia articles. Someone - and never a representative of the company - could perhaps write a WP:USERSPACEDRAFT, but be careful of influencing others on your behalf (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 23:33, 29 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
