Speedy deletion of Alexandru Ionescu

A tag has been placed on Alexandru Ionescu 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 person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance 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 biographies.

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 (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.

Hi, I am trying for days to change a page for the OpenSIPS project. I currently work in their team and I wanted to update the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opensips The reason for doing this is because the content is very obosolete, insufficient and mostly irrelevant compared to the reality. I tried to create this page along with my colleague developers but since the beginning we had a ton of issues. First we created user OpenSIPS that eventually was blocked because it was against Wikipedia's policies, then we had so many issue with 3 little pictures taken from our website (www.opensips.org) and uploaded here. Now, when we've eventually finished editing the page in the Opensips user sandbox and tried to move it over this old page it says that we cannot. Cause it is too different. I am at the end of my powers, really, I thought that Wikipedia would be more user friendly. Please, read the two pages : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opensips and it's replancement wanna be : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Opensips/sandbox and please tell me how to replace the content of the old page. Or you do it for us please. Too much time has already been lost with this. Thank you for your help.

I am sorry to have to be the one to break this to you, but there is absolutely no way that the sandbox article is suitable for Wikipedia. To address only the most glaring issues:

• The language used is highly promotional - phrases like: "easy to deploy, complexity and feature richness, the OpenSER spirit of openness, What OpenSIPS has to offer, comes in a reliable and high-performance flavour (to pick just a handful; there's hardly a single sentence in the draft that doesn't contain language like this) are completely against Wikipedia's neutrality policy, border on advertising, and are utterly unsuitable for an encyclopedia.
• There is far too much trivia - Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, and long lists of modules, product features, and perfomance benchmarks are not acceptable.
• There are no independent sources (this is, admittedly, an issue with the current version of the article as well). Unless a topic has been the subject of significant coverage (not passing mentions) in independent sources (not affiliated with the topic), it does not meet Wikipedia's basic guideline for inclusion.

From the draft you have created, it seems unlikely that you will be able to construct a suitably neutral and encyclopedic version of the page. I would suggest, instead, that you make some proposed changes on the existing article's talkpage - use the template {{edit request}} to get other editors' attention - and allow other editors who do not have your conflict of interest to decide how to integrate your proposals into the article. Be sure to provide the aforementioned independent sources to support your desired amendments. Yunshui 雲‍水 09:24, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Untipun, I'm just letting you know that a bot reported your recent promotional edits as vandalism. I have prevented you being blocked, but please take Yunshi's advice above. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:09, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

1. The long lists of "features", "modules", etc that you added to the article OpenSIPS do not belong in a Wikipedia article. They are appropriate for a web page designed to be used as a reference for people using OpenSIPS, or for a page on the website of the organisation producing OpenSIPS, a download site providing it, or something of the sort. However, a Wikipedia article is addressed to the general reader of an encyclopaedia, not to a user of the software who wants detailed information on how to use it.
2. Content of a Wikipedia article must be supported by reliable sources independent of the subject. Sources such as http://www.opensips.org/ and sourceforge are not independent of the subject, and open wikis, where anyone can contribute, are not reliable sources.
