A tag has been placed on Rodeway Inn and Suites, Fort Lauderdale Airport and Port Everglades Cruise Port requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

A tag has been placed on Rodeway Inn and Suites, Fort Lauderdale Airport and Port Everglades Cruise Port, 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 encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

Status and Advice

edit
As reviewing administrator, I deleted the article. On the now deleted talk p. you said the hotel deserves an article as a major part of the tourist scene in its aarea. That's a a good criterion for a travel guide, but WP is WP:NOT a travel guide. In any case, even if there had been adequate references providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, not press releases or mere announcements, the article would be deleted as advertising. An articles devoted in large part to the minor recent improvements in a hotel facility is of interest only to people who might be intended to go there, and that's pretty much the definition of promotionalism . Encyclopedia articles are directed to the general public.
I advise you to review your other constributions to make sure they are not similar. DGG ( talk ) 19:37, 11 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your help and explanation. It's true that some of the information comes from a press release, and I can understand how renovations aren't interesting. However, they are historical. Is that relevant? This is my first article so I want to get it right. Also, would the information that relies on third party sources, which seems to fit the definition of notability, albeit short, perhaps be relevant as a stub article?

Thank you! Jimbonanza
