Speedy deletion of Ciria (2) edit

 

A tag has been placed on Ciria (2), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant 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 as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.

Orphaned non-free media (File:CIRIA logo.JPG) edit

  Thanks for uploading File:CIRIA logo.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:09, 22 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

CIRIA research edit

 

A tag has been placed on CIRIA research, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that 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 don't count as content. 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.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

A little late edit

Sorry, I didn't notice your message on my talk page. Normally, we add new entries to the bottom of the page rather than the top.

Proposed deletion of Ecoigo edit

 

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

no indication of WP:notability. Despite appearing to have lots of references further investigation reveals that only 2 actually mention the company and one of those is a directory listing. Claims to being largest green cab company not backed up - the reference given to the companies own website is to a non existent page.

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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. noq (talk) 17:57, 14 October 2011 (UTC)Reply


Removing Bias from Article) edit

{{help me}}

Hello Wiki Admins, my Ecoigo article wasn't up to scratch and would probably have been removed soon so I requested deletion from Malik Shabazz. The notability references bit is easy to remedy- it was always going to be a work in progress to add verified independent sources for the subject itself and it's my fault for being lazy/ rushing. But how can I remove the bias- just be really neutral and subjective? I'm naturally an emotive writer so that will be a bit of a challenge for me! I'm going to experiment with neutrality in my sandbox here [[1]] so I'd appreciate it if you could highlight or even outright delete the biased/ promotional parts of the article so I can repeal the G11 breach. Many Thanks. Edmund6795 (talk) 10:08, 17 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

I'll assume you have a conflict of interest, because it seems very likely. So,
  1. Don't write about it; write about something else. Per WP:COI, WP:BFAQ, WP:BESTCOI.
  2. When you ignore the above advice, please edit some other articles first - to learn about Wikipedia, and avoid being labelled a single-purpose account.
  3. When you ignore that too, stick to verifiable facts from reliable sources, and keep a neutral point-of-view; so, don't write 'corporate-speak' promotional things like Ecoigo offer a 24 hour, year-round executive service. If you can be bothered, read WP:FIRST, WP:NPOV.  Chzz  ►  21:09, 17 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
