CSD A7 on Rani Matric. Hr. Sec. School

Hi, I wanted to let you know I replaced your WP:CSD A7 on Rani Matric. Hr. Sec. School with a WP:CSD G12. Just so you know, criteria A7 has an exemption for schools. Monty₈₄₅ 16:59, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Hello! Can you help with some tips or advice on Advert / Notability

Hello! I'm Seb, I work for Wireclub.com and I wanted to update our site's Wikipedia entry as I can supply numerous facts without any opinions or anything that may come across as an advertisement as I saw the notifications on the article and wanted to know how I can fix that. I've been researching other articles such as Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter and they all seem to be similar to ours, just with more facts which I am more than happy to supply and can make any changes needed. The problem I'm having is I can't think of how to write the facts and not make it seem as if it's advertising the site and also tips on the notability issue so I know what to avoid. Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! :) - =SebzX= (talk) 14:14, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

• Hello, Seb. Thanks for asking - I appreciate you asking for help. The biggest reason that I called that the page looks like an ad is because there's really nothing there to indicate independant notability. Meaning, there aren't a lot of reliable sources to prove that Wireclub is a notable service. Remember, "it exists" isn't justification for keeping an article on WP - there has to be third party verification. You might find links such as notability or (as stated above) the WP:RS link handy for figuring out what information you can add, and how to add it. I also left you a welcome message on your talk page with other good links to peruse. At any rate, good luck with your editing! Lithorien (talk) 15:04, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much for all the tips as they are all very much appreciated. The article is something I want to fit within the proper guidelines for Wiki as I'm sure the advertising issue is one that happens quite a bit on here and something I want to avoid for sure. I'll definitely be spending more time researching other articles for similar context so I know what type of things to add as that was also my biggest concern, I didn't want to add anything that would seem a bit like self-promotion. I do want to add things that will offer Wiki readers a factual representation of the site. Thanks again Lithorien! (by the way, sorry if this reply isn't where it's supposed to be as it's only my second day and I'm still learning as I go and this was the only place I could see to reply.) =SebzX= (talk) 07:54, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
