Your contributed article, SharePoint scanning

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.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, SharePoint scanning. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - SharePoint. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at SharePoint - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. jsfouche ☽☾Talk 16:31, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

December 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from SharePoint scanning, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. jsfouche ☽☾Talk 16:45, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Answer to your message

In case you haven't already seen it, I thought I would mention that I have posted an answer to you message on my talk page, at User talk:JamesBWatson#SharePoint scanning. JamesBWatson (talk) 17:54, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Scanning to SharePoint

The article Scanning to SharePoint has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

partially how to do it, partially duplicate of material in main article

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. DGG ( talk ) 05:23, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Status and Advice

Strictly speaking, the article on share point scanning is not a duplicate, and is therefore not eligible for speedy deletion. But Wikipedia does not publish how-to material either, and the advice JamesBWatson gave you is correct. I do not think that between the problem of how-to-do it on one side, and duplication on another, there is really enough for a separate article. I have therefore listed it for proposed deletion, as you see above. You might want to see if any of the text can be used in the main article. and , if you decide that the article cannot work, you can facilitate matters by placing at the top a line reading : {{db-author}} .

I see you have removed the Proposed deletion tag on this article, but the use of a single one among many proprietary products in the title is improper, so I moved it to, Scanning to document capture software. It will still need some rewording, and possible a merge into our existing article 'Document capture software. DGG ( talk ) 20:55, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
