Thank you.

A tag has been placed on What is TopSource?, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that 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 general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of What is TopSource? and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Peridon (talk) 20:18, 9 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit that you made to the page TopSource LLC has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Please use the sandbox for testing any edits; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing for further information. Thank you. Tommy2010 15:58, 29 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hello! I just noticed you blanked this page, it will now be deleted. Since this article is to small to be on its own, what you can do it redirect this page to a heading where you can talk about it, like this:
#REDIRECT [[Topco Associates, LLC#TopSource LLC]]
will that solve the problem? Best regards, Captain n00dle\Talk 16:06, 29 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
