Micro-urban

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Micro-urban, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.fox-companies.com/local_community. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:49, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Micro-urban

The article Micro-urban has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Per WP:NEO; this is a term of recent coinage of little significance and almost no coverage in reliable sources. Furthermore, WP:NOTPROMOTION: The article history makes it clear this emerged as a vehicle to promote the micro-urban concept developers in Champaign-Urbana began to push about 5 years ago. The bits and pieces of original research as to other places that fit the mold at this point only mask the issue. Most of the sources are minor coverage, consist of advertising copy, or discuss the promotion of the concept in some way.

While all constructive 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. —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 13:20, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
