Speedy deletion of Height increase edit

 

A tag has been placed on Height increase, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which 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 guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.

Spam edit

Papaki74,

Please stop adding your website to Short stature. Commercial websites like this violate Wikipedia's extensive rules for external links. Wikipedia is not an advertising opportunity. WhatamIdoing (talk) 03:04, 10 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Sino tech edit

 

A tag has been placed on Sino tech requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

I noted the "hangon" tag you placed on the above-captioned article and the material on its talk page. No one is suggesting that the material in the deleted article was not factual. What was missing was references that testified to any notability of this particular company. It is a common misconception that the mere existence of a company is sufficient for it to be the subject of a Wikipedia article. In fact, the company must be notable in some way, and that notability has to be attested to by the verifiable opinions of arm's-length, third-party experts in reliable sources such as books and magazines. I hope this goes some way to clearing up your confusion. In addition, material like that I read, which makes extravagant claims for the efficacy of a product that are not backed up by references from peer-reviewed scientific journals, are subject to various other policies which are designed to ensure that material in Wikipedia maintains a neutral point of view. You may want to look at some introductory material about Wikipedia such as WP:Your first article and WP:Why was my article deleted? for further guidance.
