Speedy deletion nomination of Foreclosure.com
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Foreclosure.com, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Jeancey (talk) 15:16, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
Foreclosure.com article
editThe point isn't that it isn't a valid topic, it may or may not be, but the entire article is written like an advertisement, which means that it is unambiguously promoting the company. Jeancey (talk) 15:23, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- Reply. If you wish to create the article, perhaps you can take inspiration from the articles you mentioned to see how to create a neutral and encyclopedic article without appearing to be an advertisement. After you have crafted it, I would submit it to the articles for creation area of the site, and they should be able to help you make sure that it isn't advertising, and fix any errors you might have.
