As I explained on Talk:Alexander Scherbakov, the article appears to be strictly promotional in nature. For further information, please read my essay concerning Speedy Deletion, particularly the section about Advertisements or spam. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 20:50, 20 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Re:Alexander Scherbakov Deletion edit

Hi Siamarts. Although it may have not been your intent, your article, "Alexander Scherbakov", read like an advertisement. Here on Wikipedia, we have a policy in which advertising/spam is speedy deleted per deletion criterion G11. Please note that articles for deletion are judged on their own merit, not in comparison to other articles (See WP:OTHERSTUFF). You are certainly welcome to resubmit the article, but please revise the text so that it complies with the policies and guidelines noted at WP:ADS and WP:MOS; otherwise, you run the risk of having the article deleted again.
