A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Emullard, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service, and which is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages; user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you can indicate why the page is not blatant advertising, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: Click here to contest this speedy deletion which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy deletion candidate). Doing so will take you to your user 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 edit this 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 help make it encyclopedic. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Melcous (talk) 00:34, 29 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi, thanks for message. The good news is that nothing is lost for ever. Draft articles should be created as such and not posted in article space until ready. They should never be on your main user page.

One reason I deleted your article was because it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. I see no claim in the article of how it meets our criteria, and given that it appears to be a 2015 product, it may not do so. It cannot be accepted unless it meets the notability criteria and has independent third-party sources to verify the claimed facts. I'm saying this because I don't want you to waste more time on an article if it can't cross the first hurdle. Let me know if you want me to restore as a draft (it will be tomorrow anyway, so no rush)

The text was created without wikilinks or references, and looks as if was copied from an unknown and possibly copyrighted source. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. This is another reason why we will need references.

If you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, you must declare it. See Wikipedia:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.

Hi, thanks. Hope this is correct to Edit source, not New Section. There is lots to learn! Several questions to your post: 1) I thought I created a "sub page" per directions on creating a new article. Was this the case? Was it on my main user page? Isn't there another step to submit for publishing? 2) Perhaps this is why there was a speedy take down? If so, can you re-post a draft page to appropriate space so I can continue to work on it and receive feedback? 3) I have several verifiable sources to add. I also have several wikilinks. I was trying to figure out the references notations methodology. Just wanted to save it in a space that I could continue to work on. I understood that sandbox was a wiped clean every 24 hours, so didn't want to use that. 4) I really appreciate you trying to keep me from wasting my time. Even if it doesn't meet the hurdle of notability, I will be getting some practice, as long as it is in space permitted. Should I post them here for your review? Although this is a 2015 product their other products that use the time engine has been around a while. 5) I have no COI, do not own or employed by company, Want this product to get listed like others for comparison. 6) Can you cite a software page that meets the guidelines so I can use as a model?

Note that I won't see messages here unless you start with a link to my user name {{u|Jimfbleak}} and sign the message with four tildes. It was a subpage, which gives some protection, but not immunity from admin actions. I'll post the deleted text here with some amendments, and I'll watch the page to monitor progress. Ask if you have any questions Jimfbleak - talk to me? 16:22, 30 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
I made these edits. I forgot to say that your user page is for you to tell us a little bit about your self (like mine; it's not suitable for drafts Jimfbleak - talk to me? 16:33, 30 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
{{u|Jimfbleak}} Thank you.  I will start by updating my User page.  I like your User page formating...I would like mine to looks similar, but I see you have years of experience! Question: Regarding the restored page, if it is in sandbox, won't it come down after 24 hours? That's why I didn't use it before, because instructions on wiki said not to.  Thank you .Emullard (talk) 19:49, 1 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
