Speedy deletion nomination of Champion City Comics
edit
If 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 Champion City Comics 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, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to 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 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 render it more in conformance 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. Rorshacma (talk) 19:35, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
- In regard to the above comment, although it states above that the article might be deleted because it didn't assert importance or significance, that is not the reason why it eventually wound up being deleted. The actual reason why it was deleted because it was considered "Unambiguous advertising or promotion" -- it read like an advertisement rather than an article written from a neutral point of view. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:31, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
Hello Bob toben. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Champion City Comics, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page/questions, you may be blocked from editing. --Orange Mike | Talk 22:00, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Paul is dead
editThe consensus here is that a couple of sample "clues" are enough to establish the nature of the rumors. This is not a Beatles wiki, and endless catalogs of rumored "clues" exceed our needs. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:23, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
